Wills and Beyonce to meet up in London

Prince William will finally get his chance to meet R&B diva Beyonce when she plays in London next week. The handsome royal has requested tickets for her concert at Wembley Arena, and organisers have arranged for him to meet the singer back-stage.

Back in July, Beyonce met Wills' father at the Prince's Trust Party In The Park. She was somewhat taken aback, however, when Charles revealed that Wills had a crush on her. "I went red in the face and couldn't believe it," said the 22-year-old. "I'm sure William can't believe his father said that and I'm sure Charles will be in trouble when he gets home."

But the incident obviously hasn't dampened his desire to meet the Destiny' Child chanteuse. Wills had hoped to see her perform in Glasgow on Tuesday night, but his college commitments at St Andrews made that impossible. He asked tour organisers to arrange tickets for her gig in London, therefore, and is expected to attend with a group of friends.

"I'm thrilled – Wills is very good looking," said Beyonce. There's not much chance of romance, however, as the Texan belle is already "crazy in love" with rapper Jay-Z.
