Hov!!!  

Mr. Carter channeled his inner Warhol--during a visit to the Andy Warhol Museum, last night.  Jay reenacted one of Andy Warhol's famous poses on The Factory's iconic couch--and Mr. Carter might have upped the cool factor in his version.  Sweet!!!

Legend has it that the couch was found on the street by American photographer Billy Name and became a popular crash pad for Warhol's many friends. It also appeared in Warhol's films Couch and Blow Job.  (Source:  Complex)

The moment, of course, was captured by Jay's good friend (and "personal photographer"), Lenny S. (also known as The Kodak Man).   Lenny captioned the moment with a line from Jay's, Grammy nominated, "Picasso Baby" one of the many jewels off his Grammy nominated album, "Magna Carta...Holy Grail."

 Be sure to catch Jay and B's performances at this Sunday's Grammy Awards, January 26, 2014 on CBS at 8:00 PM EST.  He's up for nine awards the most of the night.
