Despite her success and increasing net worth, there is still some people who are not familiar with Beyoné's songs.  Case in point, multi-billionaire Bill Gates.

According to new reports, Gates was surprised to find out that Queen B used his name in her new single "Formation." "Yeah, I hadn't realized that she did that until somebody in the office actually sent me a copy of the lyrics and I said, 'Are you serious? This is kind of a strange set of words here,'" Gates told Wired. "I'm surprised -- I'm not sure she said those words at the Super Bowl, though, did she?"

"I guess it's nice that people consider me successful," he added.

Despite not knowing Beyoncé's new song, Gates shared that he has spent some time with her hubby Jay Z. ""I know Jay Z, because when I did some humor right when I was retiring from Microsoft -- he was nice about participating in that, and did a great job on that," Gates explained. "I guess I should do a Bing search and see if there are more uses of my name that I don't know about."

Beyoncé's net worth of $54M is no match for Bill Gates' $74B after all.

Meanwhile, during the Super Bowl weekend, Beyonce allegedly spent $10,000 a night for an AirbnB rental, Hollywood Take reported.  But that won't be a problem since she will allegedly make more money once her "Formation" Tour starts.

"Beyoncé revealed on Facebook that she spent her 'Super weekend' in an Airbnb," the article noted. "And this wasn't just an ordinary rental home. She stayed in a $50 million, 12-acre estate in Los Altos Hills, about 30 minutes from Levi's Stadium. The five-bedroom, eight-bathroom home featured a rooftop garden, 60 fruit trees, live chickens, an infinity pool, a game room, and a fitness center."

"Beyoncé announced the 40-concert tour on Sunday, right after her Super Bowl Halftime Show appearance. That performance, and her new "Formation" video, has created plenty of buzz for the tour."
