JAY-Z NOT TO BLAME FOR LOW TICKET SALES


Rapper SHAWN JAY-Z CARTER is not to blame for poor ticket sales at a U.K. music festival, according to the event's organiser. The hip-hop star was blamed for a downturn in ticket registrations for this summer's (08) Glastonbury festival, because regular attendees prefer to hear music by British bands. But Glastonbury festival organiser Emily Eavis insists tickets are down on last year's (07) figures because of the bad weather at the festival in recent years. She says, "I'm sure it's because of the weather. People only remember the last festival, so if it was really muddy… I don't blame them, to be honest. Everybody needs a rest."

BEYONCE HAVE HER SIGHTS ON SUNGLASSES?


Beyonce is set for a fashion war showdown with VICTORIA BECKHAM over sunglasses. The R+B diva has revealed she's hoping to add sunglasses to the Knowles family's House Of Dereon style empire - a move which will directly impact Posh Spice Beckham's accessory line. Beckham has wowed the Hollywood elite with her jeans and sunglasses for the past 18 months - with Eva Longoria Parker and Jennifer Lopez among the fans of her stylish sunspecs. But now Beyonce and her mother Tina Knowles have their sights set on sunglasses success. Tina Knowles says, "I can't wait for jewellery and sunglasses because we're just accessories people." But, before that, the House Of Dereon will launch a new lingerie line this spring (08).
