It comes after reports earlier this month that the musician could become the next chief of an indigenous Canadian island after he was nominated as Chief for Walpole Island First Nation.

The island is a reservation on an island bordering Michigan and Canada… according to the indigenous community’s director of operations, James Jenkins.

He told TMZ that the Beatles star, along with Hollywood actor Ryan Reynolds, 43, have been nominated by two eligible electors, making them official nominees.

The site reports that a 1968 loophole means that the Chief does not technically have to be part of the native community in order to be nominated.

It’s unclear why Paul and Ryan were selected but unless they contact the Walpole Island office by Thursday to remove their names, they will remain legit candidates for Chief when the election takes place on September 19. 

And whoever wins, will be contacted by the First Nation and the candidate would either have to take up office or officially resign. 

TMZ also report: ‘The Chief is similar to a mayor – they are the head of the council and the voice of the community, tasked with overseeing programs and services run by administrators.

‘Chief is the most respected position in Walpole Island First Nation, which has about 5,000 members.’

But if either Paul or Ryan wanted to take up the position, they would be required to move closer to the reservation.  

Looking back: The news comes after Paul revealed he found it ‘pretty hurtful’ when he was blamed for breaking up The Beatles when the group parted ways in 1970 (pictured in 1963)

The latest news comes after McCartney revealed he found it ‘pretty hurtful’ when he was blamed for breaking up The Beatles when the group parted ways in 1970.

Reflecting on the misconceptions he faced during his time with the band, the singer, spoke candidly with British GQ on Tuesday about how he felt at the time.

Saying people believed the band – which also consisted of John Lennon, George Harrison and Ringo Starr – ‘hated each other’ after their split, Sir Paul clarified that the group simply had ‘disputes’ like any other family would.
