The biggest rumour on the well-oiled mill today is that Jay-Z is having serious doubts about his forthcoming appearance at the Glastonbury festival this June.
It's all speculation, of course, but given that the rapper's past week has included a multimillion-dollar deal with concert promoters Live Nation and a no doubt similarly pricey wedding to other half Beyonce, it's understandable that the 38-year-old rapper might be having a bit of an emotional wobble. He's simply taking on too much.
According to the Sun's man, Bizarre: "The rapper ... is upset organisers used his planned appearance to hype the event's appeal to a younger and more 'urban' crowd."
Smart Gordon goes on to say: "A source revealed: 'He 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.'"
And when he's not feeling used, he must be feeling very happy at the prospect of spending a lifetime with the all-singing all-dancing Beyonce who, according to the Mirror's 3am team, "serenaded her new husband by singing a Natasha Bedingfield-inspired ditty, with the words: 'I love you, I love you, I love you'" and later on during their wedding "performed a raunchy dance for Jay" to their joint hit Crazy in Love.
Well, that sounds sufficiently embarrassing.
Coincidentally, or perhaps not, tickets for the festival went on sale this morning and Glastonbury finds itself in the virtually unprecedented situation of not having sold all its tickets in a matter of hours. Instead, there's a reported 37,5000 tickets still available.
As for the speculation as to whether the richest (or is that 50 Cent?) man in hip-hop is still on for Glastonbury, organisers told In the News: "It would be awful if this didn't happen, but we are absolutely 100% sure it's going to happen. And it's going to be epic!"
That Georgios Kyriacos Panayiotou, he loves a bit of street art.
So much so that the singer better known as George Michael has requested that the illusive Banksy bring his graffiti stencil skills round to his manner and "paint one wall in his house for £2m".
The Mirror's 3am team suggests that an agreement is in the air, provided the singer makes himself scare for the duration so Banksy's secret identity won't be rumbled.
It's a shame that the oldest question in street art won't be answered. Who could it be? Who could it be? Could Bansky actually be Jay-Z? It fits with his entrepreneurial ways, and he does like to multitask. Actually, scrap that. Jay with a spray can in his hand is just way too urban and hip for his new mainstream credentials.
And so to this little piece of tittle-tattle, courtesy of the Sun, regarding the time John Lennon had to call the police because the house he was in was surrounded by "screaming women".
The date was 1969 and the London house was a "drugs base". The police were not aware of this and offered Lennon some assistance in departing unmolested by the "screaming women".
As the Sun points out: "Beatles legend John Lennon was once escorted from a drug dealer's den by unwitting cops- with his pockets full of dope."
This story comes to light via Tony Booth, actor and father-in-law to ex-PM Tony Blair. Booth's said to have said: "Lennon later 'killed himself with laughter' over the cops' blunder." An unfortunate choice of words we feel, though we're not quite sure why.
