With the Paralympic closing ceremony upon us this weekend, it's look pretty likely that a certain H.O.V.A will be making an appearance.

The word on the hip-hop paved streets (well, the Daily Mirror) is that Beyoncé's husband, and musician in his own right (obviously), Jay-Z, is set to tear up the stage this Sunday after being approached by Coldplay frontman Chris Martin.

A source told the tabloid: ''Jay-Z and Chris Martin are close friends so he helped to get the rapper on board. They are putting together a spectacular set list - one likely to include a duet."

With an audience of over a billion set to tune in to see the end of the historical sporting event, it's looking like it might be more spectacular than the Olympics closing ceremony.

But who else is rumoured to be rocking the stage in London this weekend? And what's all this about a duet?
