Beyonce and Jay Z’s marriage have come under heavy fire in recent time.
It appears the power couple can’t go a day without someone ariving at a theory about their marriage. Just after their appearance at the VMAs on Sunday night, The New York Post hired a body language expert to analyze Beyonce and Jay Z’s body language during the award ceremony.
Below is what body language expert, Susan Constantine, who works with a Florida court said:
Beyoncé’s face: “She’s giving a false smile,” Constantine says. If she were really happy, her eyebrows would be lifted and her eyes would be more open.
Jay Z’s face: “This is what we call a flat face,” Constantine says. “There’s no expression whatsoever.” Happiness would be indicated by upturned corners of the mouth. But he’s less strained than Beyoncé.
Their Eyes: “Neither one of them is looking at each other,” says body language expert Susan Constantine. “Their interest is more in their daughter.”
Beyoncé’s hand over midsection: She’s blocking her stomach area — the home of emotions in the body — indicating a feeling of vulnerability. Were she feeling comfortable, she’d expose her midsection.
Beyoncé’s hip: Her hips are angled away from her husband, indicating disassociation. “In other [older] photos, you see Beyoncé leaning into her husband,” Constantine says.
Blue Ivy: Her hands are clasped in a prayer-like way. Happiness would be indicated by raised arms and an extended body. Instead, she’s making herself small. “Maybe she’s praying her parents get back together,” Constantine says.
