BEATLES legend Sir Paul McCartney is being secretly considered for a peerage to mark his 80th birthday this summer — making him a Lord.
The honour will recognise his lifetime of musical achievements and service to British culture.

Macca is set to headline the Glastonbury Festival on June 25, just days after the milestone birthday on June 18.
And sources say there is now industry talk that the prestigious honour is in the pipeline — 25 years after he was first knighted by The Queen.
He would join a very exclusive selection of musicians to be offered such a prestigious title.
They include theatre mogul Andrew Lloyd Webber, 73, composer the late Benjamin Britten and late violin virtuoso Yehudi Menuhin.
