They've often spontaneously performed together during their solo shows, and Jay-Z is keeping up that tradition, by taking to the stage with Beyoncé at the Chime For Change concert.

The 43-year old rapper is rumoured to be joining his wife - who is headlining the show at Twickenham Stadium in London - to help put a spotlight on girls' and womens' issues.

Also rumoured to be taking on a presenting role is pop icon Madonna.

Madonna said on the Chime for Change website: '60 percent of the children in the world not in school, are girls. 2/3 of the world's illiterate are women.

'Do not accept this. We need to change this and we will change this.'

Also performing on June 1st are Ellie Goulding, Florence + The Machine, Haim, Iggy Azalea, Jennifer Lopez, John Legend, Laura Pausini, Rita Ora and Timbaland.

The charity - set up by Gucci - has put on the concert in conjunction with The Sound Of Change Live which aims to raise awareness of education, health and justice for women everywhere.

Tickets are priced at £55 and all sales go directly to projects the campaign supports.

Each ticket holder will receive a Sound Of Change voucher with which they can choose a charitable project to take part in.
