No A-list treatment here! Olivia Rodrigo's very unlikely pre-show snack 'revealed' amid her gruelling summer festival circuit

She is one of the biggest pop stars in the world and even headlined Glastonbury this past weekend. But Olivia Rodrigo 's very unlikely pre-show snack has been 'revealed' this week after she took to the stage at BST Hyde Park for a spectacular show. The singer, 22, delighted audiences at the gig as she brought out superstar Ed Sheeran to sing his hit The A Team. And now, The Sun have reported that before she went on stage she enjoyed some simple boiled eggs and toast rather than anything fancy or elaborate. An insider told the publication of the gig: 'Olivia's area had been decorated with wildflower plants to make it feel relaxing and summery for her and Ed. 'They even infused her water with strawberries to suit her tastes. But Olivia didn't need anything special. 'She just chowed down on boiled eggs and toast before the show and hung out with Ed. Everyone was talking about how lovely and low key both her and Ed were.' The source added that there was no fuss made for the down-to-earth star who had a huge wardrobe with her but simply just chose one outfit and 'decided not to change again'. A representative for Olivia has been contacted by MailOnline for comment. The weekend after BST Hyde Park, Olivia headlined the Glastonbury Pyramid stage in the coveted Sunday night slot. On the night she wowed in a pair of Union Jack hot pants as she shared her 'love' for England during her headline set. She put on a show-stopping performance on the Pyramid Stage as she closed the festival at Worthy Farm in the daring number which she teamed with fishnet tights and a graphic T-shirt. During her energetic set, Olivia paused to express her love for a variety of British foods as she gushed over Marks and Spencer sweets. She said: 'One thing you should know about me is f***ing love England, I love England so much. It's bands like the Cure that first got me acquainted with England but now that I'm older I have so many things I love about England.' The good 4 u hitmaker, who is dating British actor boyfriend Louis Partridge, also 22, revealed her greatest loves for the country and gushed that she 'really loves English boys'. She continued: 'I love pop culture, I love that nobody judges you for having a pint at noon it's the best. I love English sweets from M&S and Collin the Caterpillar. 'True story I have had three sticky toffee pudding since arriving at Glastonbury so safe to say I love English food. 'As luck would have it, I also really love English boys, I wrote this next song about getting to know a boy from England who loves beans on a jacket potato, I took all our little jokes and made a song called, So America.' As she kicked-off her set, the Disney star cut a trendy figure in a white lace dress as she sang hit Obsessed, which featured on her 2023 Guts album. Olivia said: 'How are we doing tonight, Glastonbury? Holy f****** s***, I don't think I've ever seen so many people in my life. Guys, it's the last night of the festival. Are you ready to have some fun?' The chart-topping star's set also featured performances of Ballad of a Homeschooled Girl, Vampire and Drivers Licence, the 2021 single that proved to be a turning point in Olivia's music career. The singer was later joined on stage by Robert Smith from the Cure. Before her guest appeared on stage, Olivia said: 'I'm so wildly excited about this next guest. He is perhaps the best songwriter to come out of England, he is a Glastonbury legend and a personal hero of mine.' The duo then joined forces to perform a rendition of Friday I'm in Love, which appeared on The Cure's 1992 album Wish. Olivia - who previously appeared at Glastonbury in 2022, when she performed on the Other Stage - also did an incredible encore featuring, So American, All-American B****, good 4 u, and get him back! The pop star - who changed into the eye catching Union Jack-themed hot pants for her encore - finished her show by adding: 'Thank you so much, Glasto. This really is a dream come true! I'm so very grateful. Thank you!' Fans rushed to X - formerly known as Twitter - to gush that Olivia was one of the 'best performers' of the weekend and applauded the Disney star for 'silencing the haters' after they claimed she didn't deserve the headline spot. They wrote: 'Olivia Rodrigo, that's how you headline Glastonbury, 10/10 no notes; 'The entire Glastonbury crowd singing drivers licence omg Olivia Rodrigo you will always be that girl; 'Olivia Rodrigo, that's how you headline Glastonbury, 10/10 no notes; 'This crowd for Olivia Rodrigo… best crowd of the whole entire weekend, her connection to the crowd is on another level; 'Olivia Rodrigo silencing the haters with this brilliant performance; 'I have to admit I am well-impressed by Olivia Rodrigo's headline show on the Pyramid Stage at #Glastonbury tonight. She sings, she plays piano, acoustic guitar and electric guitar, and then rolls out Robert Smith to duet on a couple of classics by The Cure. And she's only 22!; 'Okay olivia rodrigo rightly deserved that headliner spot, what a show and at only 22 as well; 'The way Olivia Rodrigo has proven (yet again) how she is easily one of the main pop girls in today's world!! And on one of the biggest stages in the world; 'Not even ashamed to admit it, that Olivia Rodrigo set was one of the best things I've seen this year at Glastonbury!; '22 years old and headlining Glastonbury… what a f***ing gal you are miss Olivia Rodrigo proud of you'. On Saturday, Olivia made sure she fully immersed herself in the festival spirit as she was spotted sat on top of her boyfriend Louis Partridge's shoulders, singing her heart out to Common People during Pulp's surprise set. The pop-punk singer appeared in high spirits as she belted out the iconic lyrics, whilst waving her arms about. Olivia kept it casual as she wore a black and white sleeveless vest, which she paired with leopard print shorts and a hunter wellies, with white over-the knee socks.

Scottish Love Island star Laura Anderson opens up on 'hardest week of parenting'

Our community members are treated to special offers, promotions and adverts from us and our partners. You can check out at any time. More info Scottish Love Island star Laura Anderson has opened up revealing she is struggling with her 22 month old daughter Bonnie. The radio star uploaded an honest and heartfelt update on social media saying this has been her "hardest week of parenthood so far", reports The Record. She admitted she's trying to find her feet as a mother to a nearly two year old in today's society, comparing her parenting skills to her parents in the 80s and 90s as she struggles with 'gentle parenting.' Laura took to Instagram sharing a series of snaps and videos of her week, including a trip to the beach with Bonnie and her mum and snaps of Bonnie enjoying a day at the circus with her boyfriend, footballer Clarke Robertson. The 36-year-old opened up in the caption, as she wrote: "These may be images of love, laughter and core memories being made recently but the truth behind the smiles is - I'm struggling." "This has been the hardest week of parenthood so far for me. Bonnie is coming up for 22 months and a lot has changed and keeps changing. I don't know who my daughter is some days, I don't recognise her which has led to my dip in confidence communicating and or disciplining my own child (especially in public)," she admitted. She added: "I'm scared of responding in the wrong way, I'm scared of making a mistake because what if it teaches her long lasting bad behaviours?! And let's be honest if you grew up in the 80s/90s like me, gentle parenting didn't exist. We got smacked (no offence to my parents) and now it's illegal." "So I guess you could say I'm trying to find my place as a mother somewhere in between." "We also talk about the 'juggle' but It's so much more than that. It's the responsibility of choosing a priority every second of the day because we simply can't do it all. I love my child but this is inevitably the hardest 'job' I've ever had (and I've had a lot of jobs)." The social media star concluded the post in a positive light, revealing: "My new mantra though, is- 'show me how good it can get' So without wishing my daughter's childhood away or those precious bonding turning point/learning curve moments. I hope 'this' ie tantrums…too shall pass." Laura shares daughter Bonnie with ex-boyfriend Gary Lucy, and has regularly spoke about the struggles of single parenting. Laura and Gary split before Bonnie was even born, with the star labelling him as a "deadbeat dad" after revealing he barely sees his young daughter. Fans were quick to take to the comments showing their support, and praising Laura for being so open. One fan simply stated: "We're all wingin' it," alongside a red heart emoji. Whilst another expressed: "I hear you and applaud you for sharing," and a third shared: "Love how genuine and honest you are Laura. Parenthood certainly ain't all plain sailing but you've got this beautiful mama, even if it feels like you don't sometimes, that's a normal part of parenthood but you do n you're such a great mammy to beautiful Bonnie."

Committee asks BBC boss for view on ‘what went wrong' with Glastonbury coverage

The BBC has faced strong criticism for continuing to livestream the performance of punk rap duo Bob Vylan, which is now the subject of a criminal police investigation, at the festival on iPlayer. The BBC has faced criticism for continuing to livestream Bob Vylan's Glastonbury set(Ben Birchall/PA) They led chants of 'Death, death to the IDF (Israel Defence Forces)' during their set on the West Holts Stage on Saturday, with the broadcaster providing on-screen warnings about discriminatory language on its platform. It later apologised on Monday and said the chants held 'antisemitic sentiments' that were 'unacceptable'. Irish rap trio Kneecap, who are also facing an Avon and Somerset Police investigation, appeared on the same stage directly after Bob Vylan and led the Glastonbury audience in 'Free Palestine' chants. It has since been revealed that Tim Davie was at Glastonbury when the pro-Palestine chants were broadcast. In a letter sent to Mr Davie by the Culture, Media and Sport Committee on Tuesday, chairwoman Dame Caroline Dinenage asked the BBC boss 12 questions after saying its coverage had caused 'widespread concern'. Culture Secretary Lisa Nandy previously said that 'several' editorial failures 'becomes a problem of leadership' during a statement on the BBC's coverage to the Commons. It has since been revealed that Tim Davie, the BBC's director general, was at Glastonbury when Bob Vylan performed (Peter Byrne/PA) Among the questions, Dame Caroline said: 'Before the festival started, did the BBC consider streaming all or part of its Glastonbury coverage with a short time delay, to allow room to respond to events if necessary?' The Conservative MP went on to ask how many BBC staff and contractors were working at Glastonbury or on its coverage, if staff with the authority to cut Bob Vylan's live stream were present during their performance and whether ending the live stream was discussed mid-performance. Dame Caroline then asked: 'At what level were the decisions made to not stream Kneecap live and to stream Bob Vylan live, but with a warning on screen?' The letter asked if the BBC had a contingency plan for the event and who was responsible for forming and actioning the plan, before asking if the broadcaster would review its Editorial Guidelines and guidance for live output 'to ensure they are fit for live streaming'. The Tory MP added: 'In summary, what is your personal assessment of what went wrong and what (are the) key lessons that the BBC will take away from the experience of live streaming Glastonbury 2025?' Dame Caroline said she hoped for Mr Davie's response to the questions within two weeks. Kneecap's performance at Glastonbury is also set to be investigated (Yui Mok/PA) Avon and Somerset Police said it had launched a probe into both the Bob Vylan and Kneecap performances after reviewing video footage and audio recordings, with a senior detective appointed to lead the investigation. A force spokesman said: 'This has been recorded as a public order incident at this time while our inquiries are at an early stage. 'The investigation will be evidence-led and will closely consider all appropriate legislation, including relating to hate crimes.' In response to criticism of their performance on Tuesday, Bob Vylan said in a statement posted on Instagram that they were being 'targeted for speaking up' and that 'a good many people would have you believe a punk band is the number one threat to world peace.' The statement said: 'We are not for the death of Jews, Arabs or any other race or group of people. 'We are for the dismantling of a violent military machine. A machine whose own soldiers were told to use 'unnecessary lethal force' against innocent civilians waiting for aid. 'A machine that has destroyed much of Gaza.'
