Jay Johnson (born December 30, 1948) is an American business executive and former model.

In 1968, Johnson moved to New York City from Sacramento with his twin brother, Jed Johnson. They soon became part of Andy Warhol's social circle at the Factory, where Johnson emerged as one of Warhol's superstars and appeared in the film L'Amour (1972). Alongside his involvement in the Factory scene, Johnson pursued a successful career as a fashion model and served as a muse to photographer Robert Mapplethorpe. Following his brother's death in 1996, he became president of Jed Johnson Associates Inc., and in 2005, he co-founded the textile firm Jed Johnson Home.
