Prince replacing Jay-Z at Glastonbury?

Prince replacing Jay-Z at Glastonbury?

Rex Features
Prince may replace Jay-Z at this year's Glastonbury Festival should the rapper drop out, The Sun claims.

Festival boss Michael Eavis was close to getting Prince to headline the festival in 2004 and has seen both Kylie Minogue and Coldplay turn down the chance to top the bill at this summer's event, held from June 27-29.

Rumours surfaced yesterday that Jay-Z was unhappy with organisers for blaming him for a decline in ticket sales.

Glastonbury was thought to be the rapper's only UK festival appearance this year but he is now playing the O2 Wireless Festival in Hyde Park on July 3.

Some ticket holders are upset because they wanted to attend Glastonbury specifically to see Jay-Z.

An insider said: "Obviously they [the organisers] still hoped it could be sorted out, which they still do. But there will be people who bought tickets for the festival because they wanted to see Jay-Z.

"If the Glastonbury organisers let people do that while knowing there were doubts then that seems unfair.

"When he does announce he is not playing, those people should be entitled to full refunds."

I'm trying to imagine Prince in a pair of wellies, wet through from the last downpour of rain, absolutely caked in mud, queuing for the porta-loo! lol

Can't see it - I see him being carried by the twinz in a palanquin/sedan chair, with heavy drapes on the sides to stop people taking pictures of him...

... ok, I'll shut up now zipped

lol Maybe he's like the Queen of England - they have to build a special toilet for her whenever she's visiting somewhere, then they have to knock it down, even if she doesn't use it.
