Beyoncé and Jay-Z: Wedding Prep Under Way?

For Beyoncé and Jay-Z, April showers brought flowers – and a possible wedding. On a rainy Friday in New York City, crews delivered floral arrangements, candelabras and a tent into Jay-Z’s Tribeca apartment building.

The wedding buzz began when the couple went to get a marriage license at a village hall in Scarsdale, N.Y., on Tuesday. “It’s [happening] tonight,” says a source. “A lot of their friends are booking hotel rooms.”

Early Friday morning, workers erected a white tent atop the building, where Jay-Z owns a penthouse apartment. Not long after, an SUV carrying what seemed to be AV equipment arrived, followed by deliveries of party rentals and flowers.

More evidence of an impending wedding?

A source says that Amy’s Orchids was hired to provide 50,000 to 60,000 white orchid blooms from Thailand for a “big party.” At the apartment, waiters were seen practicing their service and a source said that DJ Cassidy, a favorite of Jay-Z, would be spinning.

“Cassidy mentioned a week ago that he was really excited for the Jay Z and Beyoncé wedding party to happen,” says a source.

Also, likely guests have been gathering in New York. Producer Rodney Jerkins, who is working on Beyoncé’s new album and is a friend of Jay-Z’s, zipped into town a couple of days ago. Beyoncé’s former Destiny’s Child bandmates, Kelly Rowland and Michelle Williams, are also here, coyly divulging in a YouTube video that they are camped out at a Manhattan hotel, giggling about “sisters” getting together.

And of course, there’s Jay-Z, who reportedly hopped a flight from Boston, where he performed last night, to New York this morning.

Friends of the couple say they are very eager for the nuptials to happen. “It’s about time,” says producer Dallas Austin. “I think it’s great that they’re getting married.”

Campbell Could Face 6 Months In Prison!

Following her arrest for allegedly assaulting a police officer at Heathrow Airport yesterday supermodel Naomi Campbell – who has now been released on bail- could face six months in prison and a ban from flying!

A fellow passenger on Campbell’s flight revealed:

‘She was screaming and shouting, effing and blinding and complaining that she did not have her clothes for her television appearance. I’ve never seen anything like it.’

And another claimed:

‘She attacked a male police officer and spat at him.’

WTF!? Who spits on people? What a vile animal, she really deserves everything she gets!!

For some the Grand National is all about the horses but today it’s Ladies Day at Aintree and there is one lady everybody will definitely have their eye on! When Wayne Rooney treated his fiancé who turned and her pals to a day at the races he never imagined bookies would end up taking thousands of pounds from people wagering what colour hat his missus would turn up wearing! Can you Adam and Eve it!? Well we just spotted Coleen wearing a pretty floral print dress and judging by the shoes and bag our money is on a purple hat…

Where Have We Seen That Face Before?

The Rumour That Wont Go Away..

Has she? Hasn’t she? Is she? Isn’t she? The big question on everyone’s lips this week is- has Kate Moss really been dropped by Rimmel? And will the fresh-faced TV presenter Alexa Chung be replacing her? Well our well-placed source seems to think so:

‘There have been rumblings for some time about Kate being replaced by a younger model. She’s been amazing for the brand, but they’ve wanted a fresh face. Alexa is one of the hottest faces out there. Not only is she beautiful, she’s savvy, sexy and has bag loads of attitude.’

We caught up with Alexa Chung and her Arctic Monkey boyfriend Alex Turner doing the dreaded walk of shame (does it count if your walking with your boyfriend?) as they left a London hotel wearing the same outfits they’d been wearing the night before. Perhaps she’s not as ‘fresh’ as she’d have everyone believe…
