When Jay Z is having a hard time getting a hosting gig, you know there's a problem.

Jay used to charge roughly $35K an appearance, but had to drop his appearance fee down to about $10K.

At 10K he's still having problems booking appearances! Maybe he can drag Beyonce along, that should at least guarantee $20K.
