It all started with the internet making a joke out of the way Beyoncé looks at LeBron James while at basketball games with Jay Z. Complex Magazine and Yahoo! Sports took the joke a little further by contacting a body language expert, Lillian Glass, to analyze some Vines and photos of Blue Ivy's mom checking out the Cleveland Cavaliers star. Their conclusion? Queen B has a crush on the baller!

Considering the fact that Jay Z and LeBron James are really close friends, it only makes sense that Beyoncé and LeBron must be cordial towards one another. But according to the expert, photos and Vines allegedly prove that the cordial behavior isn't much cordial as it is flirtatious.

In the Vine below, Beyoncé's head is cocked to the side, in a flirtatious manner, as she and LeBron communicate while Jay Z's palms seem to be sweaty. Also, as Jay Z turns to look at Beyoncé, Beyoncé immediately turns away. According to Glass, "He looks at her then she kind of looks away in embarrassment. I think she's got some affection."


In the next Vine, Beyoncé is watching LeBron make a shot in awe. She's got a "loving look" on her face, but she makes sure to look at Jay Z first to double check if she's risking getting caught before she looks at LeBron "lovingly." "Yea, she's checking to see if it's okay and then she gives a real loving look to LeBron," says Glass. "Very sweet smile."

In the following photo from the 2012 Sports Illustrated Sportsman Of The Year Award presentation, Beyoncé is seen looking up at LeBron in extremely close proximity, while Jay Z is standing behind her, but at a distance. According to Glass, "She's eyeing him, she's like a little high school girl with a crush. She's leaning back looking up at him, kind of like in admiration. And, he's holding her back. She's just swooning at him."

In the photo from the 2013 NBA All-Star Game, you can see Beyoncé undoubtedly checking out LeBron James: "Yeah, she's checking him out," says Glass. "There's a checking out business going on here. She has her mouth open and is sitting next to Jay Z. She's all dolled up and her hair is all curly, she's got her eye on the side to him. She's regressed into this school girl."

Glass also states that Beyoncé is "smitten": "Yeah, she's smitten. She's holding herself back because she knows she shouldn't be having these feelings. She's got her legs crossed, her arms crossed. Like saying, "don't even go there." But you know, she can't help it. The body doesn't lie."

Now the birthday girl might have a little "schoolgirl crush" on one of the greatest NBA players in history, but Jay Z's got nothing to worry about.

"Oh, I don't think he has anything to be worried about," says Glass. "The fact that she's containing herself is very cool. She's holding it back; she's being subtle about her crush. And the fact that she even looked at Jay Z first, is a really good thing to do because she is respecting her man. She's showing a little respect before her true emotions come out."

Anyway what do you think? Is Queen B's crush on LeBron James a big deal?
