The Sun18-05-2025
REMEMBER Monday's Lauren Byrne was the last Eurovision contestant left standing as she partied until 6am following Saturday night's show.
The former West End star came 19th with her bandmates Charlotte Steele and Holly-Anne Hull in the contest in Basel, Switzerland, with their song What The Hell Just Happened?.
Despite not getting the result they hoped for, she let her hair down at the city's pop-up nightclub, Euroclub, and even got on stage just before 6am when the DJ played their song.

Exclusive footage shows the singer busting moves alone on the stage as she entertained the crowds.
It meant she was awake for almost 24 hours, before having a short nap ahead of her flight back to the UK on Sunday.
The Sun can reveal the group had a private after party at a pub in the city following the contest, which was watched by almost 8million Brits.
But Lauren then arrived at the Euroclub with a handful of the UK delegation to continue the celebrations just before 5am.
She was seen dancing to classic Eurovision entries and at one point joined a conga line.
When the DJ played their entry What The Hell Just Happened?, she ran up on stage and belted out the track - much to the joy of the hundreds of punters still celebrating.
In a statement this morning, the band said: 'WOW - what a ride! Three best mates walked onto the world's biggest music stage and came out with a Top 10 Jury score, massive streaming numbers, and memories that will last a lifetime.
'Performing at Eurovision was one of the most surreal and emotional moments of our lives. The love we've felt from fans, our incredible team, and everyone who streamed, voted, and believed in us has been overwhelming.
'This is just the beginning for Remember Monday. We've got new music coming your way, a UK & Ireland headline tour this year, a summer packed with festivals, and we'll be hitting the stage at Wembley Stadium for the Summertime Ball… no big deal!

'We're so grateful for the platform, the media support, and every single new fan who's joined us on this wild journey. Eurovision? Completed it. Let's go!'

Oasis blown away by comeback, Noel Gallagher says

Noel Gallagher has said he and his Oasis bandmates have been "completely blown away" by the response to their hit comeback tour after 16 years to talkSport's Andy Goldstein about the dates so far in the UK and Ireland, he went on to say he was "proud" of his younger brother, frontman Liam, adding "it's been great to be back" in a band with played at Croke Park, Dublin, last weekend and will head to North America next before returning to the UK for more Wembley Stadium dates in London next singer-songwriter admitted it was "difficult to put it into words" so far and added that his legs had "turned to jelly" at the start the first gig back in Cardiff, in July. "Every night is the crowd's first night," he noted. "So every night's got that same energy to it, but it's been truly amazing."I'm not usually short for words, but I can't really articulate it at the minute."After breaking the Internet last year when tickets were released, in controversial fashion due to dynamic pricing meaning many fans missed out or paid over the odds, the brothers first re-emerged on-stage together at the packed home of Welsh rugby with their arms both raised came after many years of solo releases and very public bickering from the estranged BBC's music correspondent Mark Savage noted how the band sounded the "best they've been since the '90s" on their return, which he wrote felt "like a reconciliation - or a sigh of relief - as the brothers buried the hatchet of a decades-long feud and reconnected with their fans". 'Grossly underestimated' Speaking on Tuesday, in what is thought to be the first time publicly about their comeback, which has since also rolled into their hometown Manchester and Edinburgh, Noel Gallagher said: "I grossly underestimated what I was getting into.""After about five minutes, I was like, alright can I just go back to the dressing room and start this again?"I've done stadiums before and all that but I don't mind telling you, my legs had turned to Jelly after about halfway through the second song [Acquiese, which sees the brothers duet together]. And I could have done with going back and taking a minute."But it's been an amazing thing." 'Proud' of Liam Asked how he had felt about his brother giving him a little hug on-stage at the end of the first gig, Gallagher noted: "We're not those kind of guys really, you know what I mean?"It's great just to be back with Bonehead [Oasis's founding guitarist] and Liam and just be doing it again."I guess when it's all said and done, we'll sit and reflect on it. But it's great being back in the band with Liam - I forgot how funny he was."He added that Liam was "smashing it" and that he was "proud of him", joking that his apparent return to singing form must be down to "AI".The 58-year-old, who has been singing five of the 23 songs each night throughout the tour, continued: "Having fronted a band [Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds] for 16 years. I know how difficult that is."I couldn't do the stadium thing like he does it; it's not in my nature. But I've got to say, I think, you know, good for you mate. He's been amazing."He brushed aside an attempt to ask what might happen with the band at the scheduled end of the tour in November. The Oasis Live '25 reunion tour has made the headlines since it Oasis fan died when he fell from a height at one of the band's Wembley Stadium concerts this Wembley's authorities said they were investigating allegations that hundreds of Oasis fans were able to sneak into one of the gigs at the venue without a gigs so far have also provided many memorable viral moments, including a marriage proposal at Murrayfield, where Liam also described the City of Edinburgh Council as "a bunch of snakes", following a report which had suggested the band's fans would be "rowdy" and "intoxicated".The band next play in Toronto on Sunday evening.

BBC sports presenter reveals she's pregnant with sweet bump pic after getting engaged and buying new home

grand slam! She gave an insight into how her pregnancy has been so far BBC sports presenter Jenny Drummond has revealed she's pregnant with her first child. The 36-year-old shared her happy news after getting engaged and buying a brand new home. 3 3 Posting a picture cradling her baby bump, Jenny - who has not revealed who her partner is - told her followers: 'They say things sometimes come in threes - engagement, house, now baby G. Feeling very lucky indeed.' The former tennis player - who has covered everything from Wimbledon to the Women's Six Nations - was inundated with messages from her famous pals and fans. Fellow presenter Laura Woods Golfer Annabel Croft remarked: 'Congratulations, such wonderful news.' And Sky host Eleanor Roper added: 'Aww congratulations!!!' Jenny gave an insight into her pregnancy as she shared a video made during Wimbledon. She wrote alongside it: 'Always so proud to present and voice the women's preview to the Wimbledon final of @bbcsport coverage. 'Not going to lie, I puked my way through this shoot - morning sickness has not been my friend but we got there thanks to pick n mix and most importantly to Joe Bamonte, @bensmith_cam and the editing team in Salford.' Jenny, who hails from Scotland, is known for her work on BBC Sport and TNT Sports, where she specialises in tennis, rugby, and golf. She previously opened up about being a female in a male-dominated industry and told the Daily Mail: 'As a female you get commented on how you look and what you wear rather than how you perform as a presenter or reporter. 'Then people criticise the angle of your questions or how articulate you were in the way that you said something. That p****s me off, for sure. 'I use Twitter/X for work but am not active on it. I'm sensitive and can't hack that (abuse) side of it, so I don't even bother looking.' 3
