On Friday, Jay-Z kicked off his “Reasonable Doubt” 30th anniversary concert at Yankee Stadium by showing footage of his wife, Beyoncé, allegedly cutting his hair at Yankee Stadium.
So what drove Jay-Z to spend 6 days detangling his locs only to let his wife cut off his hair in an empty stadium?
Fans believe Beyoncé went to barber school to learn advanced barbering techniques before taking the clippers to Jay-Z’s head.
But sources say Jay-Z “panicked” when he found out that fans had photographic proof of his changing hairline and various hair lengths.
The rap mogul started wearing hats and baseball caps everywhere he went.
After 2 weeks of wearing various hats and caps, Jay-Z and Beyoncé decided to cut his wig to end the distractions.
Barbers noted Beyoncé wasn’t holding the clippers correctly in the concert footage. Others noticed hair wasn’t falling from the clippers.
Jay-Z looked too calm in the chair and he didn’t wear a cape to catch the clippings.

Later, Beyoncé filled in to sing Mary J. Blige’s vocals in “Can’t Knock the Hustle.” Then Jay-Z surprised fans by bringing out his 2nd-eldest daughter, Blue Ivy, to tickle the piano keys during his song “Feelin’ It.”
