Jay-Z To Get VIP 4x4 Tour Of Glastonbury Festival Site
US rapper Jay-Z will be given a VIP tour of the Glastonbury Festival site ahead of his controversial appearance at the event this weekend.
Festival organiser Michael Eavis said that he would personally escort the rapper in a Land Rover so that he can prove that “city kids” attend the famous festival.
"I had a word with his manager, and he said: you're country folk down there, we're city kids,” Eavis told the Guardian.
“I said that a lot of people that come to Glastonbury are city kids too, and I would show him around to prove it.”
Eavis said it was unlikely that the tour will include the famous stone circle, however, because “the hippy thing, his manager said, isn't quite up [Jay-Z's] street,"
Jay-Z is due to headline the Pyramid Stage on Saturday (June 28th).
Last week the rapper defended his booking at the festival, calling the criticism “ridiculous”.
Jay-Z said it was time to embrace hip-hop and to step away from “old school thinking”.
