When you have a certain level of success then people expect you to act and live a certain way. Well Jay-Z was living the high life renting a private jet to travel in and um..oops…forgot to pay the bill!
According to TMZ,
It costs Jay-Z roughly $250k to spend 55 hours on a private jet — and that’s with a celebrity discount — but according to a new lawsuit, the rapper never paid the entire cost to fly like a boss.
Jay-Z — aka Shawn Carter — is being sued by Air Platinum Holding, a private jet company which claims Jigga spent 55 hours on their planes back in 2009 … but only paid for 37 hours of service.
The suit also claims Jay-Z flaked out on some other payments as well — here’s how it all breaks down:
— 18 hours of flight time at $4,500-per-hour (discounted from $6,000-per-hour) … $81,000
— Catering for 17 domestic flights ($500-per-flight) …. $8,500
— Catering for 4 international flights ($750-per-flight) … $3,000
— International fees … $8,500
— Taxes … $12,285
— Luxury trip to England … $24,200It all adds up to $137,485.00 … which is why most people just fly coach.
Hopefully this was an oversight and Jay-Z will pay what he owes.
