Jay-Z may drop out of his headline performance at the Glastonbury Festival according to reports.
It's claimed the rapper is less than happy about accusations that he is to blame for lower ticket interest this year. Coincidentally, tickets for this year's event are still available, even 24 hours after going on sale.
A 'source' told The Sun: "He (Jay-Z) hasn't liked all this talk of how Glastonbury is more urban and hip this year because of his appearance. He feels it's a bit sad and he's being used to make a point. The straw that broke the camel's back was when he was blamed for the lower registrations."
Rumours are now suggesting that Jay-Z will instead headline the O2 Wireless Festival in Hyde Park. Contradicting the claims are Glastonbury organiser Michael Eavis who says: "I spoke to his people this weekend. Everything is fine. I'm excited."
The rapper has been in the news several times in the last week, first for marrying girlfriend and R&B star Beyonce, as well as signing a $150 million deal with Live Nation.
