Jay-Z Spotted Rubbing Elbows With Real Soap in Luxury World Cup Suite

The rap mogul reportedly spent the entire match testing if high-end moisturizer could finally help him slide away from his 99 problems.

Talk about a squeaky clean reputation! While the rest of the world was busy sweating it out over goals and penalty kicks, Jay-Z was seen living his best life in a luxury suite sponsored by a soap brand. Insiders say the mogul didn’t just watch the game; he spent most of the match marveling at the fact that the bathroom had better lighting than his last three music videos. You’d think a man with ninety-nine problems would at least have one related to hygiene, but no. Hova was seen looking impeccably hydrated, probably because he was surrounded by enough moisturizing cream to turn the Qatar desert into a slip-and-slide. Meanwhile, half the pop industry—from Shakira to the BTS boys—was performing enough choreography to power a small city, while Jay simply sat there looking like he’d just been licked by an angel. The vibes were reportedly 'very slippery' as celebs dodged foam machines to get a glimpse of the field. Rumor has it Jay-Z even tried to sign a bar of soap to Roc Nation, claiming it had 'impeccable structure' and 'didn't fold under pressure.' Whether he was there for the football or the free exfoliation, one thing is certain: he’s the only man alive who can make a corporate sponsor lounge look like the throne of a kingdom.
