Jay Z won't be attending Kanye West and Kim Kardashian's wedding.
The rap mogul has reportedly told his close friend that he, wife Beyonce Knowles, and their two-year-old daughter Blue Ivy will miss the nuptials - which are expected to take place in Paris next month - because they are uneasy about the fact the celebrations will be filmed for the brunette beauty's reality show 'Keeping Up with the Kardashians'.
However, to make things up to the 'Bound 2' star - who has 10-month-old daughter North with Kim - Jay will throw him a lavish bachelor party at his New York club 40/40, and is also planning to spend £100,000 on the couple's honeymoon as a wedding gift.
A source told The Sun newspaper: "Jay Z would be there if it wasn't going to be such a public event.
"Instead he's making it up to his mate by throwing him the most extravagant bachelor party known to man.
"It will cost a small fortune - and to top it all off, he's chucked a £100,000 yacht rental in there as a wedding gift as well."
It was previously claimed that Kim and Kanye were so keen for Jay and Beyonce to be at their wedding, they had agreed to exempt the couple from their strict security arrangements.
A source previously said: "There is no way Kanye would ever even dare to ask Jay or Beyonce to sign a non-disclosure agreement, or take away their cell phones. He knows that neither one of them would betray his trust."

Theo Hutchcraft is dating Daisy Lowe.
The 27-year-old Hurts singer is working on his new album in Indio, California, while the 25-year-old model has been in town for the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival and the pair were spotting getting close while out and about.
A source told The Sun newspaper: "Daisy was over for Coachella and Theo's been in town working on his new album. They looked very cosy together."
Earlier this month, Daisy was said to have rekindled her romance with One Direction hunk Harry Styles, who she first dated late last year.
The pair reportedly enjoyed a string of secret meetings, including in London's private members club Shoreditch House and Greek restaurant Lemonia in Primrose Hill, and went to great lengths to ensure they weren't pictured together.
A source said: "When they see each other they keep it very private, suggesting it's more than just a friendly hang-out."
Daisy previously dated former 'Doctor Who' actor Matt Smith, but they split last year after three years together.
Meanwhile, Theo has been linked to burlesque dancer Dita Von Teese and fashionista Alexa Chung in the past.

Kate Upton has been cheated on.
The blonde bombshell has had her heart broken many times in the past, but believes the best way to deal with the pain is to cut all ties with her ex-boyfriends.
She told the Daily Mirror newspaper: "I definitely have been cheated on. Everybody's been through betrayal some way or another in their life. You're heartbroken and you have to heal that.
"I personally think the best revenge is just walking away and not wasting another second of your time with someone who's clearly emotionally handicapped. I think if someone hurts you in that way, it's not your job to change him, and it's not your job to be there while he's finding himself, and finding who he is.
"So I think walking away and being who you need to be for the rest of your life is the most important thing."
The 22-year-old model has been romantically linked to hunky sports stars Justin Verlander, Tim Tebow and Mark Sanchez in the past, but insists looks aren't her priority when it comes to men.
She added: "I love awkward, but cute. The type of guy I like, I always kid, I love a penguin."
Kate made a name for herself with sexy Sports Illustrated shoots, but is now turning her hand to acting with a role alongside Cameron Diaz and Leslie Mann in comedy 'The Other Woman' and admits it isn't easy making a career change.
She said: "It's exhausting to try to be taken seriously. But I'm willing to commit to that - I'm willing to fight."

Khloe Kardashian has paid homage to her new romance with a necklace dedicated to French Montana.
The 29-year-old reality TV star - who filed for divorce from estranged husband Lamar Odom last year - has been spotted wearing a necklace which bears the word 'Karim', French's real name, in Arabic.
The Moroccan-born rapper, full name Karim Kharbouch, and Khloe have been inseparable since they were first seen together at a party thrown by P. Diddy to celebrate his son's birthday last month.
The loved-up couple have since been on a double date with Khloe's sister Kourtney Kardashian, 35, and her boyfriend Scott Disick.
Khloe and French, 29, recently enjoyed a trip to New York, where they were spotted dining at Lobster House in an "intimate" scene, reports E! News.
It's thought the 'Keeping Up with the Kardashians' star is smitten with her new man following the deterioration of her marriage to basketball ace Lamar amid drug abuse and cheating claims.
A source previously said of French: "Khloé adores him. She keeps telling everyone what a great guy he is."
However, some of Khloe's friends and family have questioned whether her new relationship is just a "rebound".

Jay Z is at the centre of an extortion plot over old recordings.
The 'Tom Ford' rapper is allegedly being blackmailed by a former intern, who has demanded $110,000 to return master recordings of tracks such as 'I Just Wanna Love U (Give It 2 Me)' and 'Holla'.
The recordings are said to be worth $30 million and were recorded in New York between 2002 and 2003.
The ex-intern contacted Jay's Roc Nation last week demanding payment in exchange for returning the masters, which he had kept in storage in Northridge, California.
Roc Nation sent an employee to meet the intern at the storage locker and paid the culprit $2,500 to open it. Inside, the staff member verified that the recordings belonged to their 44-year-old employer.
Police were then informed, but as the recordings were never reported missing or stolen, officers claimed they couldn't help until a police report was filed in New York.
A source told the New York Post newspaper: "The guy wanted cash and told Jay's people, 'If you don't pay up now, you will lose these recordings forever.'
"Roc Nation stalled him a day to get the police report filed in New York. They said they would come back the next day to seal the deal and filed the report in New York. Then, on Friday, the LAPD took the guy into custody, but he was released pending further investigation."
Among the recordings include never-before-heard music which could be worth $25 to $30 million if included on a future Jay Z album.
The insider claimed: "Jay owns the rights to his master recordings. Some of those in question are songs that are out, but there are others the public has never heard. An album of Jay songs is worth around $25 to $30 million, but there are also tracks that he wouldn't want out there."

Mel C doesn't want to get addicted to Botox.
The 40-year-old singer is not averse to having the injections to get rid of wrinkles but is trying to limit the amount she has them and has ruled out going under the knife.
When asked how often she has Botox, she told BANG Showbiz: "It depends, every couple of months, I only have a little bit, I don't want to get addicted. Surgery is going too far, you see so many people who can't see properly anymore. Not too much, just a little bit here and there."
The former Spice Girls singer has never hidden the fact she has had the procedures because she wanted to be honest with her fans and claims she doesn't see anything wrong with it.
She said: "Why not [have Botox], it's not permanent, I thought I'd give it a go, I'm not ashamed to say it.
"I think it's probably quite good to be honest about it, a lot of the images in the public eye are quite unrealistic and it's unhealthy for people to think that's au natural when it's not."
Mel - who has five-year-old daughter Scarlet with former partner Thomas Starr - turned 40 in January but insists getting older doesn't upset her.
She said: "I just feel a lot more relaxed about things, you just realise that all the things you used to worry about in your 20s aren't that important anymore. When you're young you worry about what people think of you and how you're perceived."

The Vamps' Tristan Evans wants to date Kendall Jenner.
The 'Wildcard' drummer thinks One Direction hunk Harry Styles - who has previously dated stars including Caroline Flack, Taylor Swift and Daisy Lowe - has good taste in women and is particularly taken with the 'Keeping Up With the Kardashians' star.
When asked if he would consider dating one of Harry's exes, he exclusively told BANG Showbiz: "I like Kendall, she's quite good looking."
However, Tristan wasn't so enthusiastic about dating Justin Bieber's ex-girlfriend Selena Gomez, over fear it would be "awkward" if he ever met the 'Confident' singer.
He added: "Selena Gomez? I'm a Justin fan, that'd be a bit awkward but she is beautiful and we played a couple of shows with her so. She's very nice."
The musician hasn't dated anyone in the public eye, but insists he wouldn't be shy about asking out a celebrity.
He added: "[Have I dated a celebrity?] To my memory, No. I would definitely have the genitals to ask someone out if they were a celebrity or not a celebrity but it's all about picking the right person."
Meanwhile, The Vamps are set to headline their first nationwide tour later this year.

The couple, who got engaged last month, have been spending a lot of the time with the 36-year-old actor's family recently.

A source told the New York Post's Page Six: "They have been quietly spending some time together. It is all very new and recent, and happened while he has been filming in New York."
