Pressed further to reveal who the superstar was, Bolt said: "One person. Beyonce." Bolt continued: "At the basketball all-star weekend I meet Jay [Z] for the first time and we had a conversation, and he said 'Oh, meet my wife.' I say 'hello' and I've got things planned in my head that I'm going to say to her. "Nothing. I just said 'hi'. That's it."
