On Saturday, it seemed like Jay Z had finally—finally!—joined Instagram. He even (apparently) posted a photo. Two, actually! (Maybe?) But, the New York Daily News reports, by Sunday morning, the account that appeared to have been Jay’s was deleted.
An unverified account using the handle @Hovsince96 shared a pair of photos over the weekend of Jay Z with Michael Jackson, celebrating what would have been Jackson’s 57th birthday.
The two photographs shared by @Hovsince96, via the New York Daily News.
The Daily News points out a photo of Jay, shared by his friend, music executive Michael Kyser, in which the rapper appears to be looking at Instagram.
“Follow my brother @Hovsince96 ASAP,” Kyser wrote. The account shortly acquired more than 100,000 followers.
The account shared the two photos of Jay Z with Michael Jackson before being deleted on Sunday morning.
