Who is the mystery Glastonbury Patchwork guest? Fans think they have figured it out
It is one of the most fun parts of the Glastonbury lead up year after year.
Trying to work out which major star could surprise us all with a performance on the Pyramid Stage.
Each year organisers hold back on revealing every single detail on who we will see facing the stage, and 2025 is no different.
But this year festival fans seem convinced that they have worked out who the mystery 'Patchwork' guest is on the 2025 line-up.
The mystery guest plans to perform on the Pyramid Stage from 6pm to 7pm on the Saturday, and so far a number of big name stars and bands have been thrust into the pool of names being debated.
Oasis, Mumford And Sons, Sam Fender, Harry Styles, and Lewis Capaldi have all been mentioned, and fans have their reasons for summarising their guesses.
Named only as 'Patchwork' on the official line-up, it has led many to think that - despite their protests - it could be Oasis before they kick off their sold out arena tour this summer.
One wrote: 'Patchwork? Oasis I know they've said no, but that doesn't carry a great deal of weight... Patchwork... Patching things up... might be a bit of a reach but MY GOD it would be good.'
Others pointed to the book named 'Patchwork' by author Sylvia Haim, to suggest it would be the band HAIM while others were left convinced it was Pulp following the release of their latest album:
Maybe even more clear a link: "Patchwork is a German book written by a novelist called Sylvia Haim"

@glastonbury @secretglasto My literary wife has pointed out that Patchwork is a novel by Sylvia Haim, suggesting the Saturday pyramid slot is none other than @HAIMtheband .... What do you think? #glastonbury2025 pic.twitter.com/QsUvkWFbrP

Hoping Patchwork are Pulp, but the connection to Haim seems quite solid. wondering are they that big a deal to be a secret act? Maybe I'm a bit old and just don't know what's hot 😂

Other guesses included old favourites at Glasto, Coldplay:
'Patchwork' at Glastonbury - quite simple - the old favourites of course...#patchwork#coldplay#Glastonbury https://t.co/0UCCMvZp0j

But some thought it would be a more out there option, such as Harry Styles, because of a famous outfit choice he once made:
The secret is out. Remember THAT @JW_ANDERSON patchwork knit cardigan worn by THE @Harry_Styles? We're happy to confirm that the #TikTok trending sensation is joining our fashion collection in 2021. Read more here: https://t.co/yhonJ9PdWB#harrystylescardigan pic.twitter.com/ehPSddg3nb

Others were very honest by the fact that they simply do not have a clue:

But at least fans now only have a few weeks left to wait and see.
Glastonbury has revealed the line-up for this year's event as it announced the headline acts which include The 1975 and Olivia Rodrigo.
Also on the bill is Biffy Clyro, Rod Stewart, Busta Rhymes, Raye, The Prodigy, Charli XCX and Nile Rodgers and Chic among others.

Sabrina Carpenter Hitchhikes Through Hell in Her 'Manchild' Music Video and Somehow Looks Flawless Doing It
Sabrina Carpenter has officially had it with the walking red flags disguised as potential boyfriends. If her chart-crushing hit 'Espresso' was a wink and a giggle, her latest release 'Manchild' is a full-blown eye-roll with a raised martini glass and a flaming middle finger. The pop princess is back, bitter, brilliant, and just a little bit bored. Following the single's release on June 5, Carpenter gifted the world with the official 'Manchild' music video Friday morning. Let's just say, it's giving Thelma & Louise meets TikTok satire with a sprinkle of Hot Girl Rapture. Directed by pop visual savants Vania Heymann and Gal Muggia, the video sees the 'Feather' singer hitchhiking her way through the Wild West, relying on a parade of tragically inadequate men to get her to wherever the hell she's going. A metaphor so sharp you could cut your ex off with it. There's the guy with the motorized recliner, the one with the motorcycle-sidecar-shopping-cart situation, and, of course, the legend who somehow convinced her to ride jet ski-style on the highway. Each moment is a slow-motion disaster of male incompetence as Carpenter lounges, struts, and sighs her way across America's most absurd forms of transport. Not unlike the emotional vehicles most women are forced to endure in the name of romance. 'Stupid, or is it slow, maybe it's useless, but there's a cuter word for it, I know,' she sings with deadly sweetness. 'Manchild.' And then the kicker: 'F–k my life, won't you let an innocent woman be?' 'Manchild' isn't just a song. It's a state of mind. Carpenter crafted the track with hitmaker Amy Allen and producer Jack Antonoff (yes, he's still everywhere) shortly after wrapping up the recording of her Short n' Sweet deluxe album. 'It ended up being the best random Tuesday of my life,' she confessed on Instagram. Honestly? Same. This song is giving emotional detox. It's giving therapy but make it pop. It's giving don't call me unless you've unlearned your mother's gender roles and fixed your relationship with accountability. Carpenter said it herself. The track scores the 'mental montage' of her confusing but iconic young adult years. And if that doesn't resonate with every woman who's had to explain empathy to a man in a backwards cap, nothing will. The 'Girl Meets World' alum summed up the 'Manchild' video with the most delicious Instagram caption of 2025 so far: 'No animals were harmed in the making but some men were.' Poetry. Literature. Feminist canon. She didn't just write a breakup anthem. She wrote a thesis. And this isn't some random side B. 'Manchild' follows Carpenter's massively successful Short n' Sweet album, which spent four straight weeks dominating the Billboard 200 last year, becoming her first-ever No. 1 project. The deluxe edition only added fuel to her rise, blessing fans with additional tracks like '15 Minutes' and 'Bad Reviews' songs that were already dragging the male species, but with a little more subtlety. Not anymore. Subtlety has left the chat. Carpenter's 'Short n' Sweet' era has been nothing short of a pop masterclass, and she's far from done. After wrapping her European tour leg, the singer is gearing up to conquer London's Hyde Park in July before returning to North America for another run of shows. By now, her live performances are less concerts and more cultural reset events. Complete with crowd sing-alongs, rhinestone corsets, and probably a few more digs at whatever man inspired 'Manchild.' Let's be honest. If you've ever dated a man who called himself a 'feminist' and still thought folding laundry was 'helping,' this track is your new anthem. Sabrina Carpenter saw the problem, named it, and then rode away from it on the back of a damn couch with wheels. Sabrina Carpenter has entered her 'eat, mock, leave' era. 'Manchild' is the logical progression from the caffeine-slick cheek of 'Espresso,' a song that didn't just flirt with world domination, it practically ordered it on Uber Eats. But now, she's done being cute. She's sharpening her lyrics like claws and aiming straight at the egos of men who think 'emotional intelligence' is a podcast they heard once. So to all the manchildren still trying to understand why she didn't text back, don't worry baby. She left you a roadmap. It's called 'Manchild,' and it slaps.

Addison Rae just released her debut studio album, solidifying her status as pop music's latest ‘it' girl
Addison Rae is ready to reintroduce herself. Since amassing more than 88 million followers on TikTok, the 24-year-old has effectively pivoted her career from social media influencer to full-blown pop girl — and her self-titled, debut studio album, Addison, released on June 6, is proof of that. Rae, a former cheerleader from Louisiana, is living out her nostalgic "noughties" dream — and she's making music that captures that feeling. On Addison, Rae serves up her now signature trip-hop meets synth-pop sound. 'Diet Pepsi,' Rae's first release since 2021's 'Obsessed,' marked a turning point in the young star's career: It showcased Rae's artistry at its most sophisticated. Addison's 12-song tracklist, through its exploration of fantasy, fearlessness and doing what feels good and right for you, solidifies Rae as both a student of pop divas past and the genre's latest 'it' girl. ''Addison' is out now and alive everywhere in the universe for you to receiveeeeeee!!! This is my most personal and intimate possession,' she captioned an Instagram post. 'Making music is vulnerable, energetically sensitive, electric, gratifying, challenging…… pure magic. I am unbelievably proud.' At midnight on album release day, Rae debuted her sixth single along with the song's accompanying music video. Showcasing Rae at her most vulnerable, 'Times Like These,' which delves into her past and current tribulations, sounds like something you'd hear in a Josh Schwartz teen drama from the 2000s. Hours before Addison hit streamers, Rae performed a private show at the Box in New York City, where she played the album's singles and previewed some previously unreleased tracks. She then stopped by a Matchaful to unveil her limited edition 'Summer Forever' drink with the café. Early listeners have spoken: The album is filled with bangers. 'The very fact that addison rae just released a skipless debut album and managed to carve out a signature sound and artistic niche for herself in the oversaturated climate of today's music market,' one fan named Vidya wrote on X. 'Imagine I just told you that there was a female pop album that just dropped, that talks about familial love, the general angst and confusion you feel in your twenties and radical acceptance, and did it in a way that was really artistically intelligent,' a TikTok user named Sam said. 'Now, imagine I just told you that was Addison Rae.' Another X user raved about Rae's song 'New York,' writing, 'obsessed with everything about this track. her starting her debut album with the phrase 'take a bite of the big apple,' not only referencing new york but also adam and eve and the beginning of human civilization.. like there's LAYERSSS. addison rae you are a genius.' In an interview with Zane Lowe for Apple Music 1, Rae discussed how precious Addison is to her, and how she wants to give the album its moment. 'I think I'm in the space right now where I'm just really anticipating it coming out, and I'm like, trying to hit all the stops,' she said ahead of its debut. 'And even with posting and feeling like, 'Okay, well, I really want to make sure I give this the credit and the energy that it deserves.' I think sometimes I shy away from that because I'll be like … 'Is it going to be too much if I'm just like, 'Alright, everybody! The album's this many days away' … Sometimes I get onto myself about that and I'll be like, 'No, it deserves that.'' Focusing on her passions was more of a risk than a given. 'I just had this really strong intuition and gut feeling that, as unrealistic as it seemed, I needed to do it — there's no time like now to try and chase those dreams,' she told Elle earlier this year of her decision to pursue music. The pursuit of those dreams seems to have paid off. Long before she was lauded as a pop princess, Rae was a mainstay on the video-sharing platform, TikTok. The Louisiana native first joined the app in July 2019, where she posted a slew of content that ranged from TikTok challenges to dancing and lip-synching videos. She racked up a million followers within a matter of months and made the decision to leave Louisiana State University shortly after. The rest, as they say, is history. Rae made her film debut with 2021's He's All That, the same year she released 'Obsessed.' She starred in the horror flick Thanksgiving in 2023, three months after dropping her EP AR, which features the Charli XCX-assisted track '2 Die 4.' The release of Addison comes a year after Rae famously collaborated with Charli on the 'Von Dutch' remix. From there, she went on to garner widespread acclaim with the debut of her first major single 'Diet Pepsi,' a hypnotic, synth-pop track about young lust, in August 2024. The song's release was accompanied by a black-and-white video conceptualized by Rae herself. 'I think even going [and] watching old movies, and appreciating them for what they are, and how strongly you had to communicate through a black-and-white video, for people to take their time and watch it,' Rae told Lowe of making the video. 'And I think the song deserves that treatment of like, 'I get it. You're gonna have to focus really hard on it,' but I want you to have to focus really hard on it to get it.' Suddenly, after 'Diet Pepsi,' it felt as though Rae was inescapable. She joined Charli onstage during her 'Sweat Tour' stop at New York City's Madison Square Garden that September before dropping 'Aquamarine,' her single about transformation and rebirth, in October, followed by its remix 'Aquamarine/Arcamarine' in November. Rae ushered in the new year with the release of her third single off the album 'High Fashion' in February 2025. On the track, Rae sees no appeal in embarking on a drug-fueled bender and instead opts for the finer things in life: a closet full of couture. She sings, with her soft, atmospheric vocals atop a darker, synthier sound, 'I don't need your drugs/I'd rather get high fashion.' After gracing the cover of Vogue France, the singer dropped her fourth single in April 2025. With 'Headphones On,' Rae gives listeners a peek into how she relies on music as an escape from crisis and reality. The 24-year-old singer then reunited with Charli XCX at Coachella, where she performed the 'Von Dutch' remix. 'Fame Is a Gun,' Rae's fifth and final single — and music video — ahead of album release day, hit streaming platforms in May 2025. The track's artwork is a photo of a young Rae posing with sunglasses indoors, likely a nod to the fact that Rae has always been drawn to living a glamorous life. Rae's album, more than anything, is about arrival. 'It's arrival to who I feel like I've become,' she told Lowe. 'I've experienced all these trials and ups and downs, and great high moments to land here.' Whether you're a fan of Rae or a fan of music in general, Addison reflects an undeniable truth: We're watching an artist come into her own before our eyes.

Iconic 2000s Rocker, 50, Has Fans Saying the Same Thing in Unexpected Video
As fans of The Darkness know, frontman Justin Hawkins is one of the most entertaining rock stars around - both on and off the stage. His social media followers never know what to expect from the hilarious one recent video still managed to come as a surprise. The 50-year-old musician took to TikTok this week to share a clip of himself performing an impromptu rap called "Cars Are Like People" with a little help from girlfriend Desiree Mishoe. "Cars are like humans cause they go rusty and then they stop working just like humans do," Hawkins began, as a beat played in the background. "When cars are rusty and they're in a the scrap yard, then it makes me do the opposite of smile, cause I think about all the times I might just die when I'm getting older, and I get rusty like a car that's in a scrap yard," Hawkins continued, as Mishoe laughed and danced along. Fans in the comments were definitely amused. "He's a rapper guys," joked one person, with a second quipping, "Love that the darkness are going in a new direction." "The undisputed king of rap," declared someone else, as another agreed, "He should start a rap career." While Hawkins probably won't be releasing a hip-hop album anytime soon, he did open up about evolving as a musician in a recent interview with Kerrang!. "It's about getting to a certain age and realizing that the world's changing, and you've gotta change or that's you f-ked, you get left behind," he said, adding, "And that's rock. It's actually from the perspective of rock - rock is a middle-aged guy in a world full of people who are just generation…whatever the f-k it is now, and it has to wake up and be part of it."
