New Delhi: Like all performers American rapper Jay-Z also has his nervous moments, but he makes things easy for himself by imagining that his audience is naked.

Jay-Z, who had made headlines with his performance at the Glastonbury festival last month, revealed that he is not bothered with how many people are watching him, for in his head they all appear nude.

"They''re just people. Don''t matter if it''s 11 people or 11,000. I just imagine them naked," China Daily quoted him as saying.

The 38-year-old rapper also revealed that he was surprised by the size of the site for the Glastonbury music event.

"What was breathtaking was the entrance to Glastonbury, when you come over the hill and you see those tents. I was actually in the bathroom of the bus at the time,” he told Britain''s The Observer Music Monthly magazine.

“Everyone was like, ''Oh my God! Come out! You''ve got to come out now!'' I was like, ''Wait a minute. This isn''t a festival. This is a country! This is tent city.'' That''s when it stopped being just a concert," he added.
