Record execs are inquiring behind the scenes about filming on one of Sir Richard Branson's Virgin Galactic craft. Flights on the six-seater ships, due to launch later this year, will cost �780,000 each and blast passengers 70,000ft into Earth's atmosphere. The video would be shot when passengers experience six minutes of weightlessness. A source said: "The label people have been talking about making a music video in space. Beyonce and Jay-Z seemed the obvious option. Everything is being done to make it happen." Meanwhile, Beyonce, 30, and rapper Jay-Z, 42, have spent �1million on daughter Blue Ivy Carter since her birth last week. Gifts included a �400,000 gold rocking horse, a �13,000 cot and a �10,000 crystal-studded highchair.
