Jay-Z pulling out of Glastonbury?

Jay-Z may pull out of performing at this year's Glastonbury because he is reportedly upset with the organisers.

The US rapper is unhappy at the suggestion he will appeal to an "urban crowd" and reports that he is at fault for lower numbers of ticket registrations, according to The Sun.

He is also apparently lined up to to play at the O2 Wireless Festival in Hyde Park on July 3 instead.

A source commented: "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.

"The straw that broke the camel’s back was when he was blamed for the lower registrations."

Festival organiser Michael Eavis has denied the reports, claiming that "everything is fine" and that he was "excited" about Jay-Z's appearance.

According to eFestivals, Jay-Z may be considering cancelling his show because of his
recent deal with concert promoter Live Nation.

Michael Eavis said last week that he would be willing to get on stage and introduce the hip-hop star so that the crowd would respond warmly.

Kings of Leon and The Verve are the other headliners at this year's summer bash.
