We emphasize the Might Be part of the headline because the report comes to us via Us Weekly. But if the wedding report is true then looks like Paul McCartney will marry Nancy Shevell this weekend at his farmhouse in Sussex, England.

“It will be a small, intimate wedding,” a source told Us Weekly. “It’s going to be very elegant and classic.”

McCartney (69) has been dating the 51-year-old Shevell since 2007. This will be the third marriage for the rock n’ roll legend.

Look, I know that I say a lot of stuff on here is a preamble to the apocalypse, and I turn out to be wrong each time… but if this isn’t the beginning of the end, I don’t know what is—Taylor Swift sells more concert tickets than a Beatle.

We’ll never know what might have happened – or more specifically what music we might have heard – had The Beatles not disbanded. And for that great rock n’ roll mystery we can thank John Lennon. In a conversation with radio host Geoff Lloyd on Absolute Radio this week, Paul  McCartney revealed that it was Lennon who demanded that The Beatles end for good.

The Beatles eventually called it a career in 1970 following the recording of Let It Be. The famous foursome played their final concert on the rooftop of the Apple Records headquarters in London on Jan. 30, 1969.

Although Steve Martin is known primarily as a comedic actor, lately, he’s tried his hand at the world of music, with some surprising success; his 2009 bluegrass album The Crow won a Grammy award for the best bluegrass album of the year. As such, he’ll be releasing another disc, and according to DimeWars, he welcomed a very special guest to appear on one of the tracks: Paul McCartney.

Emma Stone may just be climbing up to the peak of her career in terms of popularity (first with Superbad, The House Bunny, Zombieland and now Easy A), but it turns out that the young actress can actually hold down a conversation decent enough to hold the interest of one of the Beatles. According to US Magazine, Stone met Paul McCartney when she accompanied her Zombieland co-star Woody Harrelson to Macca’s house for dinner. Having veggie burgers with a rock legend is something legitimate enough to celebrate but McCartney actually came through for her in a way closer to her heart.

Sir Paul McCartney has consistently been in the news for a while thanks to the Gershwin Prize he’s received. Prior to the award ceremony being aired on PBS a couple of days ago, we some sneak peeks including the massive sing-a-long to “Hey Jude” and The White Stripes/Raconteurs/Dead Weather band member, Jack White’s cover of Beatles song, “Mother Nature’s Son.”

Well guess, what? He may be a knight but he wasn’t royal enough for the security guards at the White House. In fact, McCartney and his crew were basically turned away when they tried to entire the vicinity for the actual performance!

Last month, we gave you a little snippet of how it all went down at the White House as Paul McCartney was honored with the Gershwin Prize for Popular Song. We saw the joyous event that got President Obama, his wife, Jack White, Dave Grohl, Stevie Wonder and more up on their feet as they all sung along to the classic tune, “Hey Jude.”

Now, we’ve got another clip for you courtesy of PBS (via our buddies over at TwentyFourBit) which captures Jack White‘s performance of “Mother Nature’s Son.” How did his Beatles cover go in front of a Beatle? Watch his rendition after the jump!

While yesterday was Ringo Starr’s 70^th birthday, it seems as if hardcore Beatles fans and obsessives were the ones who got the best present, as Ringo’s All Star Band – which was performing a birthday set (with Ringo on drums, natch) at Radio City Music Hall in New York City – was joined live and onstage by Paul McCartney for a roaring take on the Beatles’ “Birthday” (and since this is kind of cool and a bit of a big deal, I won’t make too much of a fuss about how “Birthday” is one of the worst Fab Four songs ever).
