Laut einer Mariah Carey Page soll auch Michael Jackson bei der morgigen Eröffnungsparty von Jay-Z's neuem Club anwesend sein. Zwar steht anscheinend noch gar nicht fest, ob die Party überhaupt stattfinden kann, da Inspektionen nicht bestanden wurden (siehe weiter unten).
Sicherlich ein sehr unwahrscheinliches Gerücht (genau wie das Jermaine Dupri - Party Gerücht), aber man will es ja wenigstens gepostet haben, bevor es übergangen wird und dann tatsächlich passiert... :

Jay-Z's New Las Vegas Club Fails Inspection

Las Vegas, NV (CNS) - Resigning from Def Jam doesn't worry Jay-Z but this one might.
The hip hop mogul's new Las Vegas club reportedly failed to pass a health and safety inspection leaving his New Year's Eve plans in disarray.
The boyfriend of R&B singer Beyonce Knowles was due to ring in the New Year at the latest branch of his upscale sports bar, The 40/40 Club, but the L.V. venue's opening will most probably be delayed after the surprising setback.
Celebrity blogger Perez Hilton cites a source as saying, "Unless Jay-Z and his team miraculously come up with certain licenses and certificates by Sunday, then they won't be ablt to go on with their New Year's Eve party plans."
And if that happens, then the rapper superstar will be forced to refund all tickets to the club's grand opening.

Jay-Z's Las Vegas 40/40 franchise may not open in time for New Year's Eve as planned.
Recent reports claim the Sin City venue failed to pass inspection, putting plans for a Vegas 40/40 New Year's Eve celebration in serious jeopardy.
According to PerezHilton.com, close sources have revealed that, "Unless Jay-Z and his team miraculously come up with certain licenses and certificates by Sunday (Dec. 30), then they won't be able to go on with their New Year's Eve party plans."
Hov's inspection woes have deeper repercussions -- if the club can't meet the necessary requirements, then Jay-Z and his partners will be forced to refund all opening night tickets, adding even further expense to a venture that has yet to see any profits.
Despite unforeseen problems with the Vegas 40/40, Jay-Z fans in the area will still have an opportunity to witness the Brooklyn MC and entrepreneur in concert.
As SOHH previously reported, Jay-Z is scheduled to perform at the Palm Casino Resort's luxe Pearl Concert Theater tomorrow. Tickets for the show, which were originally priced for $225, sold out within an hour of going on sale.
Kanye West is also scheduled to perform at the Pearl Concert Theater for a New Year's Eve performance.
