Poor Jay Z is not aging well as this picture illustrates. Jay, real name Shawn Carter, is currently in the midst of a national tour with Mary J. Blige where they perform to sold out houses every night. The rigors of being on the road at age 40 clearly shows on his face.

It is no secret jay is one ugly f-u-c-k-e-r, and he is too damn old to be dressing like a teen boy. He looks like a fool running around town with them clothes old and that old ugly face. His face is not camera friendly.
Looks like the same guy to me!!
Jay Z has always looked like this in the face.
Glad he can still sell out a crowd…camel face or not…this guy is a gold mine!!!
well he is 40…that’s not some spring chicken. and if he is happy and bey is happy then who cares what we think about this mug. most folks just see his money…and money can make a man look decent.
SANDRA, FYI THE TOUR STARTS MARCH 22, HERE IN MIAMI, WHERE I WILL BE! ALL THE PICTURES TAKEN, YOU POST THE ONE WHERE HE HAS HIS FACE SCRUNCHED UP! LET IT GO…….LET JAY BREATHE!
Jay is no sex symbol, but there are no wrinkles on his face. How exactly is he not aging well?
He looks good to me…I dont see any wrinkles either, also what happened to being positive or starting a new??
He’s not aging well cause his skin on his face is sagging around the jawl line, and look at the wrinkles in his lips. This man is just hella ugly, and the women on here just on him cause he’s jayz. You know freakin well if this random man walked up to you on the street looking like jayz, you would spray him with bug spray. Hype aside, he has a face only his mama can love; beyonce just feeling the status that’s all.
Jay is the MAN!
Juggling always makes you look older.
he looks tired and his face has always sagged like that
Jay’s face was like that during the hawaiian sophie days..it’s just drooping more..alot like a woman who once had perky breasts..dragging the floor with four arms
LOL @ Milly.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Maybe Jay got caught from a bad angle or something; he just looks like he’s sad or in a pensive mood or something. That look could also be interpreted as “please, hug me”.
Oh hell no Sandra youknow I don’t play that when it comes to my boo & for the record he is not 40 (yet) his b-day is in Dec he will be turning 38, yall kill me!! yall can call him old, ugly, & whatever else you want but he’s the man & I have been a fan of his since 95 & he still making money yall talk quick 2 say folks hating on Rihanna & who ever else but can sit here & hate on Jay, someone who is actually doing things with his money other than getting those dumb flashy chains, BOTOX since his face is sagging like yall say, he doesn’t have a parking lot full of cars so what is it really? yall have mad me mad this afternoon(lol)
Mimi let me ask you this how do you figure he dresses like a teen boy? cause he wears jeans & baseball caps? cause if I’m not mistaken he been stop wearing the jerseys & flashy clothes, your more likely to see him in a suit now or a casual outfit!!
Jay looks the same as he always has. I don’t really think of him as good looking but he does clean up nice. I think Jay and B make a cute couple. She’s obviously not in the relationship for the money or the fame that comes from dating a successful rapper, otherwise she’d be pimping that relationship for all it’s worth. Hell, you can’t even get those two to admit to knowing each other.
Jay’s not 40. Everyone would be happy to be with him, Sandra included.
Thank you Miss Peaches(please step away from my maan lol)Ppl are such hipocrits when it comes to Jays style of dress he always looks very dapper and dress for his age.If anything listen to his music and he tells you “Throw on a suit get it tapered up”.MIMI I’m sorry but the youngters around my hood aren’t likely to be seen in a scarf and pinstripe denim.So how does he dress like a teen boy?Jay is very aware of his age and carries himself well.Why is it nobody makes fun of LL for running around with his shirts off and he’s older than Jay I think he’s 39 or did he just make 40 and DMX IS 38 as well.
Peaches, you’re of a dying breed; those having a grown folk crush on Jay-Z.
sandra, you should’ve showed the pants he was wearing, they were hideous! i think he is aging fine…his sawgger is on point, but his looks—not so much!
My friends and I can’t wait till the tour comes to Houston.I went and bought my tix friday their selling like hotcakes here.
Bsoul…crush girl no my man hates it when a song or video comes on you can’t get me to do anything!!(lmao) he does have a hell of a swag, damn Beyonce, damn her I say(lol) Pinkvirgo we may have to fight for that(lol)& Smokie is right anyone would love to be with him even if it is for his money, hell I will never forget I was 8 months pregnant with my son & was going to see him(yes 8 months) I paid $100 to get into the VIP so yeah I better had seen somebody anyway I actually got close to him & he rubbed my stomach & asked me to name my son Shawn, girl I could have pissed rght there in the floor(lmao) OMG I am such a groupie!!!

Does being positive mean I can’t also be real?
Ms. Peaches I would have passed out too! I think your man might have had a problem with you naming his son after another man though.Even if it was the greatest to ever do it.(yeah I said it)
“I actually got close to him & he rubbed my stomach & asked me to name my son Shawn, girl I could have pissed rght there in the floor(lmao) OMG I am such a groupie!!!”
Me:
You should have…he would have driven you to the hospital—thinking it was your water that broke. Ahhh, who am I kidding, this is Jay-Z, he would have had his driver go with you, instead. LOL!
He still looks the same to me. Boy ain’t never been cute, but he doesn’t look old.
Bsoul ur crazy, if that had of happened you think I wouldn’t have told the folks at the hospital that was my son’s father(lmao) s**t, sorry babe(at home) but this is Jay were talking about!! Ok im through yall have gotten my blood pressure up (geesh)
Jay would have stopped the last name baby-naming quick, fast and in a hurry…believe that.
Jay to you: “You can have the first name but not the last name, not the last name, sugah!
Best believe he’s protecting the cash.
Some people on here are so funny!!! The same one saying Jay-Z needs to stop dressing like a teenager are the same ones who said that there is no such thing as age appropriate cloting. HA!!!
D@mn the double standards!!! If Janet Jackson and Mariah can wear whatever the hell they want to. Why can’t Jay?
Oh yeah the topic (See Auntie Sandra, I’m trying)……he’s not aging well, but cutting back on the hectic schedule and getting a little more rest would probably do him a world of good.
jay z is too old for beyonce…..do she know his johnson is going to start puckering out in about 3 years and Viagra causes blindness and heart failure ew child she should have been moved on …so that’s why the daddy didnt want her to be with him…………Child…
Money makes you look sexy and everything in between, you didn’t know?LOL.Some women actually think he looks good.If he wasn’t “Jigga,JayZ,Hova,Hovito” or whatever he refers himself to nobody would be studying him.He makes good music though.I think he needs to smile more because that area can make you look old and grumpy.
I was told that by a very smart woman that an adult cannot be too old for another adult. They are both grown,thats all that matters.I have always dated older men as long as their not so old they went to school w/my daddy I’m good lol.Older men are more mature and more financially stable as well as they are more likely to be ready to settle down and have a meaningful relationship.I ain’t mad at Bee he must be doing something right.
He looks good to me…I dont see any wrinkles either, also what happened to being positive or starting a new??

*********************************************************
Lol yes you can be real…but the man isnt quite 40 yet and I dont see any crows feet,age spots and or wrinkles
I dont dont know Sandra,I was looking foward to that new leaf I heard so much about the other day.
