Lady Gaga and Jay-Z battle over Michael Jackson's Neverland ranch
The rapper, 43, and wife Beyonc toured the 18.9 million ranch and fairground last year and are said to be interested in turning it into the HQ for their business empire.
However, Gaga, 26, also wants to get her hands on it and plans to open it up to the public with a zoo and amusement park.
'Jay-Z has deeper pockets than Gaga and is willing to outbid her if need be,' reveals our source.
'It's near his good friend Oprah Winfrey's estate and she's encouraging him to go ahead with the renovation plans, so Gaga will probably be left out in the cold.'
