On a freezing cold January night, both celebs and athletes came out to attend Jay-Z‘s reopening of his flatiron sports club The 40/40. Celebrity’s such as Spike Lee, Ashanti, Swizz Beatz, Yankees pitcher CC Sabathia, even Billionaire Warren Buffet walked the red carpet into the newly renovated sports bar to celebrate with Hov. Jay-Z himself walking through the red carpet with a noticeable glow, the birth of his daughter Blue Ivy Carter and the reopening of the 40/40 club along with other endeavors must be in fact due the reasoning behind the fresh faced Hov. The year has been quite gracious to the Carters thus far and we’re eager to see what else Jay-Z has up his sleeves for the remainder of 2012.
