Emeli Sandé: I have a great partnership with Jay Z

OHMYGOSSIP — Emeli Sandé has revealed she has a “great partnership” with Jay Z.
The 29-year-old singer recently changed management when she signed to Jay Z’s Roc Nation halfway through making her new album ‘Long Live The Angels’, and she has revealed that she feels “really supported” by the 46-year-old rapper and his team.
Speaking on UK radio station BBC Radio 1 – on which she debuted her new single ‘Hurts’ – she said: “I feel really supported by them. It’s been a really great partnership so far. It just all came into plan and I was in New York with my mum and dad and we ended up going into the building and my mum was cracking jokes with Jay Z and it was all a bit surreal.”
And the ‘Next To Me’ hitmaker also recounted the surreal moment when she met the ‘Empire State of Mind’ musician – who is married to Beyoncé – a few years ago.
She said: “I met him (Jay Z) a few years ago, I went to the ‘Great Gatsby’ premiere and I kinda got pushed into this circle with him and Leonardo DiCaprio and I was like ‘Hi I’m Emeli, I’m a singer.’ ”
The BRIT award winner’s upcoming third album comes after a four-year break in recording, with her last album ‘Our Version of Events’ being released in 2012. She revealed that whilst her break gave her time to “reconnect”, she admits she “really wanted” to get back into the studio.
She said: “I just felt like I really want to get back in the studio; better myself as a song writer, singing, I just really wanted to up the levels of the music. So I’ve kinda just been in studios a lot, travelling around and just reconnecting with my family and friends, just getting back to life and writing songs to be honest.”
‘Long Live The Angels’ is due to be released on November 11.

Johnny Depp 'never talked' about divorce on tour

OHMYGOSSIP — Johnny Depp “never talked” about his divorce on tour.
The 53-year-old actor hit the road with his Hollywood Vampires band mates Alice Cooper and Joe Perry just as his relationship with Amber Heard started to crumble 15 months ago but he didn’t seem fazed by the bitter circumstances and refused to mention his former spouse to his close friends.
Speaking to TMZ.com, Alice said: “We never heard about it on tour. We never talked about it, not once. I’ve never seen him in such a good mood though.”
However, the 68-year-old rocker didn’t push Johnny into talking about his fragile private life while on the road because the trio, who formed the super-group last year, just wanted to focus on their music and their fans.
He said: “He let it just go off his back. He’s a guitar player in the band and that’s all he wanted. And that’s kind of what we wanted. We didn’t really want all the chaos from Hollywood.”
Johnny hit the headlines earlier this year when his spouse, whom he married in 2015, filed for divorce and requested a restraining order against him because he had allegedly hit her and thrown at phone at her during a fierce argument.
The 30-year-old actress claimed at the time: “During the entirety of our relationship, Johnny has been verbally and physically abusive to me. I endured excessive emotional, verbal and physical abuse from Johnny, which has included angry, hostile, humiliating and threatening assaults to me whenever I questioned his authority or disagreed with him.”
The judge granted Amber – who appeared to have a bruised cheek – a temporary restraining order at the time but the estranged couple settled their legal issues just before the scheduled hearing to have the order extended.
The former lovers – who got married in 2015 – settled their divorce settlement on August 16 in Los Angeles and Amber took back the accusations she made about Johnny.

Katie Price wants to adopt a newborn baby

OHMYGOSSIP — Katie Price wants to adopt a newborn baby.
The 38-year-old TV star has started the formal process to give a home to an unwanted child and she is looking to held a tot from overseas.
Katie has decided she wants a baby because she is worried about the impact an older child with potential emotional problems could have on her own five children – Harvey, 14, Junior, 11, and Princess, nine, from past relationships, and Jett, three, and Bunny, two, with her husband Kieran Hayler.
During an appearance on ‘Loose Women’ on Friday (16.09.16), she said: “I’ve always said I want to adopt a child, I’ve got five of my own and I’m still going to continue to have my own. I just think it’s the right time for me now to adopt a child, I want to adopt from abroad as well … I would like a newborn, because I’ve got my kids. If I had an adopted child, that was say five, and that child had problems – behavioural problems not disabilities – then I don’t want it to affect my other kids.”
Katie is also adamant she wouldn’t have an issue giving a home to a child with special needs because she’s used to caring for her oldest son Harvey who has various challenging medical conditions.
She added: “I just love to mother and nurture and that’s why I want a newborn, to see them grow up. I’m not bothered about it being a boy or a girl and if there was something wrong I would keep it, I wouldn’t care.”
Katie – who was previously wed to Peter Andre, the father of Junior and Princess – insists Kieran supports her wish but doesn’t understand why she wants to adopt while she can still carry more babies herself.
She revealed: “Kieran doesn’t understand, he’s like, ‘Why would you adopt when you can still have your own?’ But I’ve always wanted to adopt, I’ve got 11 bedrooms and they need to be filled and I don’t mean that jokingly, I’m very hands-on with my kids.”
Since she went public with her adoption plans, and orphanage in Bulgaria has already contacted the former glamour model to ask to take a child.

Audrina Patridge: Music got me through my C-section

OHMYGOSSIP — Audrina Patridge was “scared” of having a Caesarean section.
The former ‘Hills’ star was nervous about having to go under the knife because daughter Kirra Max – who was born in June – was not in the right position for her to give birth naturally, so asked doctors to turn her music up loud to distract her from what was happening.
She told People magazine: “I had the doctors turn up the music in the delivery room so I wouldn’t focus on what was happening. I was kind of scared and Corey (Bohan, her fiancé) just kept talking to me. I was scared to have a C-section.
“She was breech. I tried everything to get her to flip. I went to acupuncture, I floated in the pool, I did front flips, I did handstands, I did everything you could imagine and nothing worked. I waited until the very end of my pregnancy.”
The 31-year-old television personality felt a connection with her baby girl “instantly”, but she still “can’t believe” that the 11-week-old bundle of joy is hers.
She said: “It was instant. It was so natural. Every day I look at her and I can’t believe she’s mine. She’s so cute, it melts my heart.”
And the ‘Sorority Row’ star admitted that although she struggled during the first month of motherhood, she wouldn’t change it for the world.
She said: “If I’m being completely honest, the first month of no sleep, C-section recovery, unpacking, and getting back into the swing of things was pretty gruelling. But, at the end of the day, all I had to do was take one look at Kirra and none of that mattered anymore.”

Shailene Woodley's understanding parents

OHMYGOSSIP — Shailene Woodley’s parents weren’t always “on her side” when classmates were “mean” at school.
The 24-year-old actress’ counsellor mother and psychologist father wanted their daughter to understand why people had lashed out at her, and though she “hated” their stance at the time, she now understands what they were trying to teach her.
She said: “There were times in school, when someone said something really mean, it would hurt my feelings, and my parents weren’t on my side. They would be like, ‘I’m so sorry you’re feeling this way, but what do you think that person was feeling?’ Oh, I hated it.
“Now, of course, I understand; it enabled me to recognise that no-one’s evil, they’re probably hurting and can’t express themselves, get no love at home, so it’s repeated. It gave me a broader outlook; just put yourself in another person’s shoes.”
The ‘Snowden’ star insists her family – who frequently allowed runaways or families fleeing violence to stay with them – are her “everything” and she can always rely on them for support.
She told Net-A-Porter’s The Edit magazine: “I came home to things that weren’t great.
“My family is super-f***ed up in many ways, but they are also my everything.
“They would do anything for me, and I would do anything for them. That’s a lot more than most people can say about their families. I’m grateful for the s**t that happened.”
If Shailene and her brother ever argued when they were younger, their “manipulative” parents would force them to spend hours hugging out their differences on the front lawn so neighbours could see.
She recalled: “The whole time you’re just seething, you’re disliking this person with so much energy, but if you let go you have to stay there for an extra hour. That was the kind of reverse, manipulative psychology my parents were into.”
And, possibly as a result, the ‘Divergent’ star finds it difficult if she has to depict anger on screen.
She said: “Don’t get me wrong, I am so angry at the corrupt systems in this world, but yelling or screaming? The last time I got in a big fight was with my boyfriend when I was 17. I would say obscene things and lash out. I was in a toxic relationship. I remember thinking, ‘I never want to be that person.’ ”

Ralph Fiennes: James Bond needs to be 'radically different'

OHMYGOSSIP — Ralph Fiennes thinks the next James Bond movie should be “radically different” from the recent installments of the saga.
The 53-year-old actor plays Bond’s MI6 handler M in the movie franchise, and he has revealed that his Russian friends “hate” the newer movies as they are too dark, and they much prefer the light-hearted era of former 007 actor Sir Roger Moore.
He said: “It was categorical. [They said] ‘I hate these! So serious! Please! Why? Where are the jokes?’ ”
Ralph admitted his friends keep reminding him that the Bond movies are supposed to be “a show”.
With Sam Mendes – director of the last two Bond movies ‘Spectre’ and ‘Skyfall’ – now stepping down from the director’s chair, the ‘Grand Budapest Hotel’ actor believes the next director needs to offer a different “tone and argument”.
Speaking to the Daily Telegraph newspaper, the star said: “Well I think if you’re the next director of Bond, you’re going to not want to go down the tone and argument of what Sam [Mendes] has put into the films.
“Questions of British nationhood, and whether Bond is a dinosaur, all that. So I would guess if you’re coming to do the next Bond, you’d want to take it somewhere radically different, I think.”
However, the ‘Schindler’s List’ actor believes British fans of the franchise liked the fact that Bond – who has been portrayed by Daniel Craig in the last four films of the series – was brought into the “real world”, but would like to see some of his characterisation stay the same.
He said: “I think the British audience likes Bond being brought into a more serious real world. So they should nod to all those well-known Bond tropes and icons that we want, but with an undertone of gravitas.”
The news comes after it was revealed that MGM bosses were on the hunt for a new James Bond in the wake of current actor Daniel’s threats that he would quit the franchise.
Actors in the running for the suave spy include ‘Poldark’s Aidan Turner and ‘Luther’ star Idris Elba.

Mick Jagger embraces local languages

OHMYGOSSIP — Sir Mick Jagger tries to learn the native languages of the countries he performs in.
The Rolling Stones frontman thinks it is important to make the “effort” to speak to fans, even if his attempts are not always perfect.
Discussing how he spoke a lot of Spanish to the crowd at the group’s first-ever show in Cuba in March this year, he said: “[Do I speak Spanish?] Not really but I find it quite easy. If I prep it, I can get by.
“I’d just been doing Spanish for almost the whole tour, apart from the whole Brazil part, which is Portuguese and more difficult. So I was kind of OK.
“Even my daughter Jade gave me a grudging compliment. Her Spanish is quite good and she said, ‘Your Spanish wasn’t bad’. I said, ‘Well, I’ve been doing it for three months or so.’
“I think you’ve got to make the effort to talk to people in their own language. Even if you make a mess of it, it doesn’t matter. I think people appreciate you trying.
“A lot of people speak English, but not everywhere, so it’s good to do phrases.
“The thing about Spanish is that it’s different in each country, they have different words and slang and ways of pronouncing it. Someone said, ‘You can’t pronounce it like that, you’re speaking like a Chilean’, I was like, ‘What’s wrong with that?!’ ”
The Cuban show – which will be screened in cinemas around the world on September 23 – saw the rockers joined by local choir Entrevoces for the encore of ‘You Can’t Always Get What You Want’ and Mick, 73, revealed the band have a “network” of similar musical backing that they call on for their shows around the world.
He told The Sun newspaper: “The Cuban choir were very good. We have a network of choirs all over the world. We do a practice with them the day before and then, if we can, we do one on the day, backstage or on stage.”
The gig came after an eight-day break in the ‘Ruby Tuesday’ hitmakers’ tour, so for Mick it was important he kept singing on his days off.
He said: “It’s a bit of a gap, but you’ve got to keep going. You have to do all your vocal practices and exercises. I think I went to the West Indies and everyone else went to Miami. I had to get good for that show. I didn’t want to disappoint the Cubans.”
‘Havana Moon – The Rolling Stones Live in Cuba’ will be premiered at cinemas globally for one night only on Friday, September 23. See stonesincuba.com for more information.

Stevie Wonder, Christina Aguilera set for Prince tribute gig

OHMYGOSSIP — Stevie Wonder, Christina Aguilera and Chaka Khan are among the artists who will perform at a Prince tribute concert next month.
The family of the late singer – who died from a fentanyl overdose in April – are staging a concert at the Xcel Energy Center in St. Paul, Minnesota on October 13, and John Mayer, Tori Kelly, Morris Day, the Time and Anita Baker are also on the bill to give musical tributes to the pop icon.
Doug E. Fresh, Bilal, Mint Condition, Judith Hill and Liv Warfield are also on the performers list, and New Power Generation Keyboardist Morris Hayes, along with members of Prince’s girl group 3rdEyeGirl, will lead the ensemble for performances of all songs.
Prince’s sister Sharon Nelson said in a statement: “”The family is extremely excited to provide an opportunity for the world to participate in the tribute for our brother Prince.”
The ‘Purple Rain’ star’s friend and advisor L. Londell McMillan added: “Many fans and friends all over the world wanted to have the chance to honour, memorialise and celebrate this incredible man.
“We’re thrilled we were able to make this happen.”
Tickets for the show will go on sale on Monday (19.09.16).
Event organisers have also set up a Twitter account, @PRNTRIBUTEOCT13, for official updates about the tribute gig.
Shortly after Prince’s death, ‘Lately’ hitmaker Stevie praised the “inspiring” “Emperor” of Pop.
He said: “Prince was so inspired, and so inspiring.
“He was kind, he was disciplined and he knew where he wanted to go. He was able to make big transitions.
“If Michael [Jackson] was the King of Pop, Prince should be the Emperor. Prince fought for his artistic freedom. He didn’t allow anyone or anything to get in his way.
“By following his own path, Prince took music to a whole other place, like the Beatles did. He wanted to change the way things were, like Marvin Gaye did.
“When you do that, you have to be very sure of yourself.”

Katie Price's kids back on Instagram

OHMYGOSSIP — Katie Price’s children have returned to Instagram.
The former glamour model broke the age Terms and Conditions of the picture-sharing app by signing son Junior, 11, and nine-year-old daughter Princess up, three weeks ago, but their accounts vanished on Thursday (15.09.16).
However, hours later, their pages were reinstated but with changes made.
Katie shared grabs of the youngsters’ accounts, with Princess’ now simply featuring her name, while Junior’s no longer features the contact details of his manager and says it is “run by his mum @officialKatiePrice”.
She posted alongside the screengrabs: “Hey my baby is back on Instagram @iamjuniorandre (sic)”
Junior and Princess’ father Peter Andre previously admitted he was unhappy about Katie’s decision to set up pages for them and said that he had banned them from logging on to social media when they are at his house.
Peter – who has two-year-old daughter Amelia and another baby on the way with his wife Emily – said Junior and Princess are too young for Instagram and he keeps them offline because he believes the platform opens up “all sorts of issues”.
Writing in his column for new! magazine, he shared: “I have been asked how I feel about my kids having Instagram accounts. Everyone knows I don’t allow them to have phones or social media at my house. I don’t like kids having them because I think it opens them up to all sorts of issues.”
However, Peter, 43, insisted he respected Katie’s decision to allow them to use Instagram when they are with her.
Talking about the need for “compromise” when you co-parent, the TV star said: “As a parent you have to compromise with the other parent and try to work together. I can only advise and encourage them – I can’t do any more than that.”
Katie recently admitted she let her children join Instagram so they can further their own showbiz careers.
She said: “My kids have been brought up in the industry with their dad and me on TV shows, everyone knows who they are. Now they are being booked themselves for TV shows, modelling jobs and stuff like that. Social media is the future … It’s a business thing.”

Gary Barlow strips for shoot

OHMYGOSSIP — Gary Barlow has posed nude to promote ‘The Girls’.
The Take That frontman and the production’s writer and director, Tim Firth, were dated to strip by actresses Claire Moore and Joanna Riding – who have toured with the musical and will appear in the West End show from January – after they tired of baring all in publicity shots while the two men stood fully clothed.
And so Gary and Tim agreed to pose for a picture, though after having hair and make-up artists tend to them, insisted on a closed set for the shoot.
In a picture given to the Daily Mail newspaper, the pair’s modesty was protected as they posed behind a piano, surrounded by the stars of the production, who were similarly covered.
Blushing Gary simply said afterwards: “We fulfilled the dare.”
The ‘Patience’ singer began working with Tim on the musical four years ago after he saw a performance of stage show ‘The Calendar Girls’ – on which it is based – but is still making changes.
He said: “The show has been massaged and nurtured over time.
“A musical needs time to breathe. You look at it and think, ‘Oh, we got that wrong.’ Then you have another go, and things are obvious.
“The magic begins at rehearsals. I’m going to be there every step of the way.”
After tickets for the show’s run in London’s West End went on sale earlier this week, Gary admitted he was feeling “nervous” about its debut.
Replying to a fan who told him she’d bought tickets for opening night, he tweeted: “Nervous already xxx (sic)”
The ‘Back For Good’ singer is grateful to all his fans who have purchased tickets for the production’s West End run.
He tweeted: “Thank you to everyone who’s booked tickets to see @thegirlsmusical and no booking fees ! #hurahhhh (sic)”

Jay Z slams war on drugs

OHMYGOSSIP — Jay Z has slammed the war on drugs as an “epic fail”.
The ’99 Problems’ rapper has narrated an animated op-ed piece for the New York Times, in which he argued tough narcotics laws implemented by President Richard Nixon and extended by President Ronald Reagan have reaped little benefit, and disproportionately targeted Latino and black males.
In the video, which runs for nearly four minutes and features illustrations from artist Molly Crabapple, Jay said: “Drugs were bad; fried your brain. And drug dealers were monsters, the sole reason neighbourhoods and major cities were failing.
“No one wanted to talk about Reaganomics and the ending of social safety nets, the defunding of schools and the loss of jobs in cities across America. Young men like me who hustled became the sole villain, and drug addicts lacked moral fortitude.”
The 45-year-old star – who has four-year-old daughter Blue Ivy with wife Beyonce – insisted more black people were imprisoned than their white counterparts as he discussed the mandatory minimum sentencing that put low-level drug dealers in jail, New York’s tough Rockefeller laws and the “problem” of deadly narcotic crack.
He said: “Even though white people used and sold crack more than black people, somehow it was black people who went to prison.
“Crack is still talked about as a black problem.”
Further claiming double standards, Jay slammed the hypocrisy of “the NYPD [raiding] our Brooklyn neighbourhoods, while Manhattan bankers openly used coke with impunity” and objecting that there are “kids at dorms in Columbia, where rates of marijuana use are equal to or worse than those in the hood, [who] are never targeted or ticketed.”
The rap mogul – whose real name is Shawn Carter – concluded the US’ tough stance has failed as drug usage rates are as high as they were when the laws were implemented and urged for a rethink on the policies.
He said: “Rates of drug use are as high as they were when Nixon declared this so-called war in 1971.
“Forty-five years later, it’s time to rethink our policies and laws. The War on Drugs is an epic fail.”

Sharon Osbourne gets food poisoning from BLT

OHMYGOSSIP — Sharon Osbourne vomited in her car after getting food poisoning.
The star got sick shortly after eating a BLT sandwich – made of bacon, lettuce and tomato – for lunch on Thursday (15.09.16).
Sharon, 63, shared the graphic details with her 2.41 million followers on Twitter, telling them: “OMG Ate a BLT for lunch. It’s amazing how it went in my mouth and now it’s come flying back out splashing the wall and my car. Yuck! (sic)”
Food poisoning is an illness caused by eating or drinking food or water contaminated with viruses, bacteria, toxins, parasites or chemicals and among the symptoms are vomiting and diarrhoea.
It is not usually serious and people get better in a few days usually by taking plenty of rest and drinking lots of water.
The TV personality is currently starring on ‘The X Factor’ in the UK alongside Simon Cowell, Louis Walsh and Nicole Scherzinger on the judging panel.
As well as starring on the British TV talent show, Sharon has also been dealing with the fallout from her husband Ozzy’s sex addiction which resulted in him cheating on her with multiple women.
After a brief period apart, the Black Sabbath rocker received treatment for his condition and the pair have now reunited.

Sharon Stone had near-death experience

OHMYGOSSIP — Sharon Stone had a near-death experience 15 years ago during which she was engulfed by a “giant vortex of light”.
The 58-year-old actress “took off into a white light” and was reunited with some of her late friends for a split second when she suffered a subarachnoid brain haemorrhage in 2001.
Speaking to America’s Closer magazine, she explained: “I feel that I did die. This kind of giant vortex of light was upon me and – poof! I sort of took off into this glorious, white light. I started to see and be met by some of my friends … people who were very, very dear to me [who had died]. I had a real journey with this that took me to places both here and beyond. But it was very fast – whoosh! Suddenly, I was back. I was back in my body.”
It took the ‘Basic Instinct’ star two years to recover from the haemorrhage – an uncommon type of stroke caused by bleeding on the surface of the brain – as she had to learn to walk and talk again but after the vivid experience she no longer fears death.
She said: “I get not to be afraid of dying and I get to tell other people that it’s a fabulous thing and death is a gift. When death becomes you, as it will, it’s a glorious beautiful thing. I had an incredible sense of well-being and a sense that it’s just so near. Death – it’s very near and very safe.”
Sharon was living in San Francisco with her then-husband Phil Bronstein, whom she split from in 2003, when she began to notice the effects of the bleed on the brain, but it took her three days to seek medical help at the hospital.
She said recently: “It almost feels like my entire DNA changed. My brain isn’t sitting where it used to, my body type changed, and even my food allergies are different.”

Kris Jenner: Rob Kardashian's in a 'good place'

OHMYGOSSIP — Rob Kardashian is in “such a good place”.
The ‘Keeping Up With The Kardashians’ star is thrilled to be expecting his first child, a baby girl, with his fiancé Blac Chyna and his mother Kris Jenner is pleased to see him “engaged in life again”.
She said: “It’s wild. it’s been very exciting to see Rob on this journey. It really has … You know, he was in a place where he wasn’t feeling good about himself, and he didn’t really wanna get out and about, so this has really been life-changing for him, and obviously, as his mama, it’s been … I’m just happy he’s engaged in life again …
“I think he’s in a relationship and he’s feeling loved and he’s expecting a baby and he’s got this new family unit that he’s a part of now, and I think every single thing that’s happened to him over the last year has been very significant in helping him overcome some of his challenges and adversities he’s gone through lately. But I think he’s in such a good place.”
And the 60-year-old matriarch is feeling positive that her 29-year-old son will overcome his weight troubles as he has always been “so athletic”.
She added to E! News: “Any time you get down on yourself, it’s always a process to get back on top of it. And Rob has always been so athletic, he was the star track guy in high school and a basketball player, and he was the runner up after 20-whatever weeks on Dancing With the Stars, and dancing live in front of 40 million people or whatever it was …
“He’s been such an amazing athlete and in such great shape and very athletic his whole life, so this is not in his comfort zone. This isn’t something he’s experienced, so it’s hard. It’s hard for him to get the weight off like it is for any of us, so he’s definitely been challenged by this. He’ll work through it. I really have faith in him. He’s just gotta put his mind to it.”

Simon Cowell disappointed with One Direction

OHMYGOSSIP — Simon Cowell is disappointed some members of One Direction never approached him about their solo projects.
The 56-year-old music mogul is annoyed that the likes of Zayn Malik didn’t get in touch about their solo work despite Simon supporting their career ever since they were put together as a group during ‘The X Factor’.
Speaking to reporters at the ‘America’s Got Talent’ season finale, he said: “I hear so many things now, which they’re doing, which I’m not involved with. It’s a bit like I’m getting the hint you don’t want me to come to the party. Sorry for making you famous …
“Look, I’m not going to lie when I hear they’re doing something, and they haven’t approached me. You think, ‘Well I would have liked you to,’ but it’s their choice. I’m not bitter – much.”
When asked if he is involved in Zayn Malik’s new memoir, he said simply: “You know what? I genuinely don’t care.”
His comments come only days after Simon admitted he wishes Zayn had come to him about his new TV show about the formation of a successful boy band.
He said: “Nothing surprises me anymore. I think he should have come to me with it, if I’m being honest with you. I do actually believe that when they’ve got these ideas, bearing in mind where we started, they should actually come to me.”
Simon has previously expressed his annoyance that Liam Payne signed with rival record label Capitol Records.
He said at the time: “It is a bit annoying if I am honest with you – mainly because it is a another label who has now got your artist who you worked with for so many years. But that is the music business, unfortunately. I don’t think anyone else from the band will do that.”

Jay Z and Beyonce to stage charity gig

OHMYGOSSIP — Jay Z and Beyonce are staging a charity concert next month.
The couple – who have four-year-old daughter Blue Ivy together – will perform at the Barclays Centre in Brooklyn, New York, on October 15, along with Nicki Minaj, Lauryn Hill and Lil’ Wayne and all the proceeds will go to charity.
According to the New York Post newspaper’s Page Six column, tickets for the Tidal show will start at $50, but there will be VIP packages available for a staggering $100,000.
Proceeds will be divided between charities nominated by the artists on the bill, and the Robin Hood Foundation, which fights poverty and funds educational programmes in the poorest areas of New York.
The gig will also stream live on Tidal.
Perhaps the gig would be a good time for Jay and Beyonce to unveil music they were said to have been working on together earlier this year.
The couple made headlines after the ‘Formation’ singer released her visual album ‘Lemonade’ on April 23, as many of the lyrics on the record appeared to suggest the rapper had been unfaithful, but they had worked through their problems.
And though the pair never spoke out to address the speculation, it was claimed they planned to respond on a joint album that would be released on Tidal instead.
A source said: “Jay and Beyoncé were never going to do an interview to address all the questions that came up after ‘Lemonade.’ It’s more their style to respond through music.”
It is not known how long they’ve been working on the new secret album as Beyoncé is busy in the midst of her ‘Formation World Tour’ but it is a project which has been rumored for years.
it’s not the first time the couple – who married in April 2008 – have collaborated together – in 2002 they recorded ‘Bonnie & Clyde’ followed by 2003’s ‘Crazy In Love’.
Beyoncé, 35, also laid down vocals on her 45-year-old spouse’s ‘Hollywood’, and more recently, they have worked together on ‘Lift Off’, ‘Drunk in Love’ and ‘Part II (On the Run)’.
