Jay Z is celebrating his 44th birthday by changing his diet: the rapper and wife Beyoncé are going vegan until Christmas, Hova wrote yesterday on his Life + Times blog.

Where Does Jay Z Rank on Our 100 Greatest Artists List?

"On December 3rd, one day before my 44th birthday I will embark on a 22 Days challenge to go completely vegan, or as I prefer to call it, plant-based!!" Jay Z wrote, citing a theory of psychology that it takes someone 21 days to form or break a habit. "This all began a few months back when a good friend and vegan challenged me to embrace a 'plant-based breakfast' everyday. It was surprisingly easier on me than I thought."

The hip-hop mogul found a symmetry that he liked about starting the challenge now. "There's something spiritual to me about it being my 44th birthday and the serendipity behind the number of days in this challenge; 22 (2+2=4) coupled with the fact that the challenge ends on Christmas day," Jay Z wrote. "It just feels right!"

Jay Z promised updates on his progress, and he asked "any professional vegans" for tips on places to eat. He'll be doing some of his vegan dining on the road: the rapper last weekend kicked off his "Magna Carter" world tour with a concert in St. Paul, Minnesota. Will Jay Z's new plant-based food regimen last? "I don't know what happens after Christmas," he wrote. "A semi-vegan, a full plant-based diet? Or just a spiritual and physical challenge? We'll see."

Either way, 21 days and counting.

Beyoncé Rocks Head-to-Toe "Pizza" Outfit—See the Pics!

Looks like Beyoncé's got food on the brain!

The gorgeous star is not only plunging into a brand new vegan lifestyle for the next few weeks, dining at plant-based eateries all over town with Jay Z, but she's also letting food influence her fashion choices, too.

She curiously wore a Christopher Kane coat with a real fur collar and suede boots while noshing on animal-free fare this week; and then stepped out in a two-piece ensemble covered in pepperoni pizza yesterday.

Yep, you heard us. A pizza outfit.

NEWS: Bey wears fur-lined jacket and suede boots while eating vegan food

The singer paired a cheeky crop top emblazoned with cheesy pies with matching high-waisted patterned leggings featuring a digital print of greasy pepperoni and gooey cheese, and knocked it out of the park with her killer confidence and designer accessories.

Blush nude leather Christian Louboutin pumps and a playful choker necklace finished off her foodie style statement perfectly.

Yum!

Pepperoni is obviously off limits when eating vegan, but it looks like Bey has come up with alternative ways to show her affection for the banned food groups for the time being!

What do you think of Beyoncé's pizza outfit?
