Did You Hear?

:: Pop music’s royal couple, Jay Z and Beyonce, traveled to Iceland for a chilly getaway in honor of Hova’s recent 45th birthday. Not ones to sit around and let their passports go to waste, the pair are currently in Thailand for the holidays. [Rap-Up]

:: If Kanye West wasn’t mad at Lily Allen for co-opting his Yeezus album title for her LP Sheezus, how irked can he be over Local Business Comedy turning his tracks into holiday songs for Kreezus? [Pink Is The New Blog]

:: It seems several new Gwen Stefani songs have been registered with BMI, so perhaps we’ll get a third album from her after all, despite the not-so-great performances of “Baby Don’t Lie” and “Spark The Fire”? Co-writers on the tracks are said to include Benny Blanco, Ryn Weaver and Charli XCX. [PopJustice]

:: Surprise — Eminem is gay! Or, at least his character in beleaguered Sony film The Interview is. Watch Em’s big revelatory scene here: [Stereogum]

:: Sam Smith and his two sisters got matching “III” tattoos for Christmas. Who knew they were such big Take That fans? [Instagram]

Have a safe and wonderful Christmas Day!
