FARRELL BAFFLED BY WEST/OBAMA APPEARANCE RUMOURS

Former JANE'S ADDICTION frontman PERRY FARRELL is baffled by rumours KANYE WEST is to be joined on stage by U.S. presidential candidate BARACK OBAMA at this year's (08) Lollapalooza music festival.
West is rumoured to have persuaded the popular Illinois senator to introduce his set at this weekend's (01-03Aug08) event in Chicago, Illinois.
But Farrell - who organises the annual gathering - has no idea himself whether the unusual on-stage pairing will take place.
He tells MTV.com, "That's definitely been the rumour, and it's been coming from their (West and Obama's) camp. I hear that it's his (Obama's) birthday that weekend, so he might be in town.
"But these guys - you're never going to know anything until the last minute anyway. That's what I've been told. I've heard those same rumours, and that would be really cool, right?
"But there are definitely no guarantees."
