Beyonce, Jay Z rent house in London

 

 

What with the Olympics, the, um…Olympics…and, huh…more Olympics, everyone and their mother is coming to stay in London this summer to enjoy the city's delights (the Olympics). But Blue Ivy is coming along not only for parents Jay Z and Beyonce to take in some curling and pole-vaulting, but because her A-List 'rents have got work to do over here. 

So much work - his Watch The Throne tour and gig at Radio 1's Big Weekend - her launch of a Beyonce-branded perfume - that they're going to rent out a house here over the summer.

They've put their wear-and-tear deposit down on a townhouse near to showbiz mates Gwyneth Paltrow and Chris Martin because they didn't want to waste all their money on hotels during their stay. The five-bedroom house, which was found by members of her entourage, is also near to other rich-and-famouses Simon Cowell, Richard Branson and Twitter legend Michael Winner. 

A source told The Sun: "Both Jay Z and Beyonce are going to be spending a lot of time in London over the next few months" 

"They wanted to have somewhere more homely now they are parents." 

They're not the only US stars to have made a recent move to Blighty. 

Brad and Angelina have been spotted back in south west London, Kanye West's said to be hiring a whole floor of the Lanesborough Hotel to impress new girlfriend Kim Kardashian and Rihanna's meant to have bought a huge bacherlorette pad in Hoxton!
