Inside Drake's EPIC Wireless after-party with A-list celebs and OnlyFans star after fans moan final show was cut short
But I reckon I know why the IDGAF rapper might have needed to get away sharpish from London's Wireless Festival on Sunday — and it wasn't just the energetic performance, complete with twerkers.

My insiders reveal the Canadian star threw an epic party on Saturday night — which saw him partying at Mr Porter in Mayfair until after 5.30am.
A source said: 'After his back-to-back shows on Friday and Saturday, Drake had a party.
'He hired out Mr Porter in Mayfair and was seen arriving around midnight.
'There were loads of celebs there like Casey Affleck and Sacha Baron Cohen. Weirdly, Lily Phillips — the X-rated adult performer — was also on the guest list.
'The party went on all through the early hours of Sunday morning, with Drake finally heading home not long before 6am.
'It was a great bash and everyone who came out looked like they'd had a really good time.
'Drake looked a bit tired when he came out with some of his entourage, so it's not surprising that his final show at Wireless was cut short.
'He probably needed some extra sleep.'
After his final show at Finsbury Park, North London, Drake took to Instagram to speak directly to his fans and said: 'Thank you London.
'Need some time to process what just happened so I don't have my usual caption . . . just thank you so much for the best three nights of my performance career.'
Drake's fans, who had tickets to his final performance on Sunday night, were not too impressed though, and rightly so.
His shows on Friday and Saturday ran for 90 minutes, with the latter featuring 13 special guests.
On Sunday, the official setlist had advertised two sets for Drake, one at 6.25pm and one at 8.55pm.
But the first randomly disappeared from the schedule, with Drake coming on after Burna Boy had finished.
His first track was an unreleased collaboration with Central Cee, who was seen mouthing the words from the front row, which was projected on to big screens.
One concert-goer told me Drake then raced through hits, with a surprise appearance from Nigerian rapper Rema and Jamaican dancehall star Vybz Kartel.
There was then only time for a few more tracks, with Drake finishing to Whitney Houston's I Will Always Love You for a third night in a row.
I'm a big fan, but I can understand why ticket holders for the final night felt short-changed.
I'd have been raging.
Chris plane ad prank takes off
11
CHRIS STARK proved why he's one of the funniest blokes on the radio when he gave racegoers a laugh at Newmarket.
The Capital Breakfast host played a DJ set on Ladies Day and called up Zoe Lister – the voice of Jet2 holidays ads – to see if she'd appear when he played Jess Glynne's Hold My Hand, which blasts out of speakers on board every Jet2 flight.
Chris said: 'So I'm DJ-ing at Newmarket and why don't you come along and maybe we can bring you out and do it live?'
She then stunned the crowd by picking up the mic and doing the spiel we hear on the adverts.
Tim & Co: We are back
THE CHARLATANS are back with their 14th studio album, We Are Love.
The 11-track record, out on October 31, is the first album from the group since 2017's Different Days.
The album was recorded at Rockfield Studios in Monmouthshire and their own Big Mushroom space in Cheshire.
Singer Tim Burgess said the record was inspired by the concepts of hauntology and psychogeography – which to us normal people is how geographical environments influence human emotions.
Tim added: 'The whole idea of hauntology and psychogeography is represented by us going back to Rockfield, where so much history has happened for The Charlatans.
'That was important as a way of honouring every member who's played in the band.
'So we're honouring ourselves, our past, feeling that energy and reincarnating it, doing something fresh, brand new.'
The group have also announced a six-date UK tour, kicking off at the O2 Academy in Leeds on December 6.
They will also play Stoke, Bath, London, Manchester and Glasgow.
Welcome back, lads.
Dan has gotta tie shorts
DANIEL BEDINGFIELD had to take inspiration from his 2002 hit Gotta Get Through This after having a mare at Pub In The Park.
He was performing at the event in Reigate, Surrey, when his shorts fell down mid song.
Daniel, brother of Natasha, was forced to run off stage and get them sorted. Laughing about it, he said: 'Little known fact . . . if your pants are falling down, you can't do a gig.'
After getting himself back on track, Daniel went on to introduce his next song, warning the children in the audience he was about to say some rude words.
The singer joked: 'OK, here we go. Kids, you are going to learn a lot of swear words in this song.'
At least the shorts stayed up for that one, Dan.
J-Lo's sparkle returns
JENNIFER LOPEZ is back on top form after her split from Ben Affleck.
She turned up the heat by performing in a crystal-embellished bodysuit during her Up All Night Tour, currently in Spain.
This is J-Lo's first tour since 2019's It's My Party, but she's not lost her ability to put on a killer show as she smashed through songs including Get Right, Love Don't Cost A Thing and Let's Get Loud.
She also revealed her new track Wreckage Of You, a ballad she wrote not long after her split from Ben.
The song has not yet been released but the lyrics are cutting: 'It was perfect when you made me believe.
'Really got only greater for me. And it made me stronger, stronger, bulletproof.
'Now watch me climb out of the wreckage of you.'
Stevie's salute
11
STEVIE WONDER celebrated a victorious set at American Express Presents BST Hyde Park by throwing an after-party for his closest family and friends.
My mole revealed the Signed, Sealed, Delivered singer hosted a bash at the Great Lion Bar backstage and gave an emotional speech.
They explained: 'Stevie was one of the few big stars to throw a party after performing and it was really special.
'His two daughters, Aisha and Zaiah, and two sons, Kailand and Mandla, were there too and Stevie got up on the mic to give a speech.
'He thanked them for all the support. It was really emotional.'
The stars were out in force for his set, with JB Gill telling me he once bumped into him and told him all about JLS.
He told me backstage: 'I've actually met him in an airport lounge at Heathrow Airport.
'He was so nice. We were on our way to LA and I walked into the lounge with the boys, and Stevie was sitting in the lounge, so we had to say hello.
'He's a music purist so he had an inkling of who JLS are and our music.
'It's funny, a lot of people who are into music in the States, no matter how big they are, know who's who and what's what.
'I remember meeting Miley Cyrus and Justin Bieber.'
JB is also lobbying to get a set at the event in the coming years, adding: 'We're still working on JLS headlining BST Hyde Park.
'It's going to happen, watch this space.'
All the lovers came out for Stevie too on Saturday, with AJ Odudu snogging her fiancé Peter Gibson during his set, while Jade was spotted with her boyfriend Jordan Stephens.
Dua Lipa and Callum Turner were also spied locking lips during Neil Young's set over the weekend, with my mole saying: 'They were late but had a massive snog before taking their places in the VIP suites.
'They are clearly madly in love.'
George: Worricka a top boy
BOY GEORGE has teamed up with rising star Worricka for a track called Mesmerised.
The record out on July 24, is a funky electronic single mixed with classic vocals from the Culture Club frontman.
Boy George said: 'I love Worricka's jazzy tones and we have worked on a few things together.
'I don't know why we have never written together, but we should.
'He sounds great doing reggae and he brings a familiar flavour with his voice but he still sounds like himself.
'I hear a bit of Jessye Norman and that's serious praise.'
Worricka added: 'It's about the first moments of infatuation when you meet someone on the dance floor in a club.
'We shared the stage for the first time many years ago at The Jazz Cafe in London when George asked me to join him to open a charity show.
'Now we share the stage once again with Mesmerised.'
Kaisers reigning in Spain
KAISER CHIEFS pulled in the biggest British crowd at Mad Cool Festival in Madrid over the weekend.
One of my mates, who was down at the front, told me Spanish fans started legging it after mosh pits started springing up near the stage.
'It was chaotic but amazing,' they said.
'The locals didn't seem used to having Brits going absolutely bananas, and left the mosh pits well alone.'
Frontman Ricky Wilson tried his best with the lingo but said he was struggling.
He joked with fans and said he wished he had 'paid more attention to my Spanish lessons in school', before adding with a laugh, 'I hate myself.'
It then got even funnier when he said: 'Nous sommes Kaiser Chiefs,' before realising that was French for 'We are Kaiser Chiefs,' not Spanish.
I'll be getting you a Duolingo subscription for Christmas, Ricky.

JUSTIN Bieber is raising a glass of plonk to himself and he's got good reason to.
The singer, who's just dropped surprise album Swag, will be back in the Official Charts this week.
Justin celebrated its release on a yacht in the Med with his supermodel missus Hailey.
Daisies, a song from the 21-track record, is on course to hit No5 on Friday.
If he holds the position, the song will become Justin's 28th Top 10 hit.
I can imagine there will be more corks popping come Friday.

Viewers outraged at Bonnie Blue claiming she is a ‘community worker' as she sleeps with 1,000 men in explosive new doc
VIEWERS have been left outraged at Bonnie Blue after she claimed she was a "community worker" while sleeping with 1,000 men in a new documentary. Her brazen antics were laid bare in her new fly-on-the-wall Channel 4 documentary, 1,000 Men And Me: The Bonnie Blue Story. 2 2 The shocking documentary revealed behind-the-scenes footage for Bonnie Blue's successful challenge where she aimed to sleep with 1,000 men in 12 hours. She ended the challenge having had sex with 1057 men, topping Lily Phillips' 100 men record. But viewers were left outraged after the former OnlyFans model referred to herself as a "community worker". One said it was "disgusting" while another said on X that the whole documentary was a "disgrace". Many others took offence to her comment that her sex acts were a "community service". Angry viewers blasted her for "trying to normalise this behaviour" by influencing "impressionable" teenagers. Hundreds of users also expressed their disdain that the documentary was even being aired on TV. One wrote: "Why the hell is Channel 4 showing a documentary about Bonnie Blue....1000 Men & Me." "She could have had a dance career. I feel like I'm losing my mind watching this." But Bonnie's shock claim to fame - bedding over 1,000 men in 12 hours - and filming sex content with 'barely legal' students saw her accused of 'setting women back 100 years'. She has even been branded as dangerous for women as toxic masculinity influencer Andrew Tate, not least for referring to herself as a 'slut'.

Ozzy Osbourne's funeral procession to pass through Birmingham city centre
Ozzy Osbourne's funeral cortege is to pass through his home city of Birmingham on Wednesday. The hearse will travel along Broad Street to Black Sabbath Bridge and the Black Sabbath bench – the sites of thousands of messages, floral tributes and vigils following the metal star's death last week at the age of 76 – at 1pm BST. Lord Mayor Zafar Iqbal said: 'It was important to the city that we support a fitting, dignified tribute ahead of a private family funeral. We know how much this moment will mean to his fans.' The Osbourne family has paid for the event and all associated costs, and Osbourne's wife Sharon and children Kelly and Jack – possibly among his other children – will follow the procession before the private funeral later in the day, the details of which have not been made public. The local brass band Bostin Brass will soundtrack the procession, with members of Black Sabbath and the musician Yungblud thought to be taking roles. Fans at home will be able to watch the procession via an ongoing live stream of the Sabbath bench. Fans from across the world – including the Canadian R&B megastar Drake, who was passing through the city on tour – have travelled to Birmingham to pay their respects to Osbourne. Iqbal said that he had been moved by accompanying fans in a line to sign a book of condolences, and that Osbourne had put 'Birmingham on the map. He put Aston on the map.' In June, Osbourne and Black Sabbath were given the Freedom of the City ahead of their Back to the Beginning gig, a mammoth, all-star show paying tribute to Osbourne as he and Black Sabbath gave their final live performance. The event raised more than £1m for local charities fundraising for children's causes and treatment of Parkinson's, which Osbourne was diagnosed with in 2003. Evoking David Bowie's death just days after the release of his final album, Blackstar, in 2016, Osbourne died 17 days after the performance, at home in Buckinghamshire. Thousands of fans are expected to attend the event: Birmingham council has encouraged mourners to turn up early, and roads will close from 7am. A book of condolences will remain open at the Birmingham Museum and Art gallery, where the exhibition Ozzy Osbourne (1948-2025): Working Class Hero remains open. In 2011, Osbourne told the Times what he hoped for from his funeral. He didn't care about the music, he said. 'But I want to make sure it's a celebration, not a mope-fest.'
