Jay-Z Really Likes His New 'Look'

Filed under: Fashion Smashion > Jay-Z

Jay Z rocked the geek chic look again on Monday at the Cadillac Records premiere event in the NYC.

Jay's lady, Beyonce, plays the legendary Etta James in the flick.

Z's Kanye-inspired look is growing on us.

It makes him look more distinguished.

What do U think?

Toast. says – reply to this

25

he looks like a fucking idiot, helllooo Jay-Z, throwing on a pair of fake glasses isn't convince us that you're cool, iconic, or smart. This trend was so last year, you're not ahead of the bandwagon, you're way, way, behind it. Just fuck off and die already!

Well, nothing could possibly make him any uglier so I guess he looks okay.
emilyhilton says – reply to this

43

15 years down the road he's going to be laughing at himself.
Why 15 years? Because he's blind with those binoculars, and I feel as if they're here to stay for a little while.

A little late Jay-Z, it's been introduced/rocked/established…. Just say NO!
Mimi723 says – reply to this

44

The only way glasses could help this man, is if they were big enough to hide his entire face. He is truly one of the ugliest men I have ever seen!
afenster says – reply to this

45

Maybe Beyonce didn't want to use birth control anymore so they decided to have him where these instead. It would certainly take care of any lusty thoughts I had. Yuck!

You ass kisser. He's fugly and those glasses accentuate the fugliness that is JAY Z
CelebGossiper09 says – reply to this

63

You would think with all of the money this guy has he'd have the confidence to wear his own style instead of just copying Kanye West's. It SERIOUSLY does not work for him.
ciao bella03 says – reply to this

Steve Erkel all grown up!! sexy…..not!!
Absolut Dirtbag says – reply to this

65

You know, you'd think after KanYe went so far as to write a SONG about how much Jay Z copies him, homeboy would lay the fuck off. He looks ridiculous.

He truly is one of the ugliest men I have ever seen in my life. If he wasn't rich I doubt Beyonce would have given him a second glance.

No suit or glasses in this world will ever help that ugly man…
Phattazzbitty says – reply to this

78

I agree with Milky Milky. If I were to walk out like that, PLEASE! I'd get beat up & called a retard! The only reason everyone is sweatin' him is cuz he's got B's ass and he's got TONS of money! WHO REALLY WEARS THAT SHIT ANYWAY?
Pr3ttyPois0n says – reply to this

Shame those glasses aren't letting him see any better. Perhaps then he'd notice Beyonces armpit hair and make her shave.

Jay was always timelessly dressed. That probably got boring to him. Well jay you shouldn't go kanye on us. Kanye is like the beegees like you are frank s. I hope you're not spending too much time with chris martin. that dude makes good music but he's weird.

Criss Angel Is Recorded Threatening To Knock Out His Producer!

Whoa! Criss Angel is NOT messing around here!

The Luxor headlining illusionist was recorded having quite the verbal altercation with Joe Monti, one of his magic producers on Wednesday, during which Angel is heard threatening to knock him out - and now he's had a police report filed against him!

Give it a listen (above)!

Furthermore, Monti later said to authorities that he recorded the meeting because Angel has a history of bullying employees!

He explains:

“I wanted him to know how demeaning he was. I created 50-60 percent of the magic for ‘Mindfreak.' I have no reason to do anything vindictively but I draw the line on violence.”

Scary!

Violence is never the answer, folks!
