Rock legend Gavin Rossdale reveals dream of returning to Glasto and why he needs to be on his best behaviour
Read on to find out how Pixie Lott stole the show at the We Are Wirral Festival GAVIN IT ALL BACK Rock legend Gavin Rossdale reveals dream of returning to Glasto and why he needs to be on his best behaviour Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) Gavin Rossdale has spent three decades in the rock 'n' roll spotlight since the release of Bush's debut album Sixteen Stone and admits he's always on his best behaviour now. 'I've been thinking about the kind of people who would pay to do me in,' Gavin laughs as I join him at the Sound Studio in London to celebrate the release of Bush's tenth record, I Beat Loneliness. Sign up for the Entertainment newsletter Sign up 9 Gavin was speaking exclusively to Bizarre's Ellie Henman Credit: collect 'I'm at the point where I'm a really successful working musician. 'I can never go anywhere where I'm anonymous. 'My behaviour has to be really excellent at all times because there's always someone with a camera phone — but I'm not like Kanye West.' The record, with brilliant tracks like The Land of Milk and Honey and Everyone Is Broken, is an ode, Gavin says, to Bush's fans, who have been with them since they broke into the scene in 1995. 'I wanted to make a record for the people who have gotten stuff from our records,' Gavin explains. 'It's about me, but I realised that I'm no different than anyone else. 'I think that everyone is just fighting different battles at all times. But it's important to have so much fun in life. Keep him grounded 'Life is beautiful, but it has its kind of moments where just out of nowhere, people will just f**k with you or life f**ks with you and things happen to you, to people you love. 'So writing a record that spoke to that experience just seemed the most valuable thing to do.' He adds: 'Plus, I don't have any stories of holidays on yachts. So I didn't know what to write about. Gavin Rossdale's new girlfriend Xhoana Xheneti looks exactly like ex Gwen Stefani in his new photo as fans 'look twice' "Every time I look at Instagram, I go, 'Why is that not me?' Leo [DiCaprio] has never invited me anywhere.' Gavin is now based in the US but he returned to the UK to walk his model daughter Daisy Lowe down the aisle this month. Back in the US, it's his sons, Kingston, Zuma and Apollo, from his marriage to Gwen Stefani, who keep him grounded. 'My recording room is in the bedroom between two of my kids' rooms,' Gavin says. 'I did a remix of Machinehead, one of our earliest songs, and to be honest, I was impressed with myself. "And my 17-year-old son, who's a really good guitar player, walks in and he goes, 'You're not releasing that?' 'I was like, 'What do you mean?' He goes, 'You're taking legend and you're really destroying it.'' Recalling another grounding incident from Kingston, Gavin adds: 'We were on holiday and I was going on tour two days later. "I had guitars in the house that had been used by the kids and I didn't get a chance to practice. 'I started to play one of the songs and he walked in and he goes, 'Do you want any help with that?' 'I took the bait. I was like, 'Look at this house. This is how we got here!' 'I was super defensive. But he was right. I hadn't been playing so I was a bit fingers and thumbs. "He caught me on an upswing. I was like, 'Come to see our second night on tour and then you'll see, son.'' Bush's new album is the perfect follow-up to 2022's The Art of Survival with Scars and I'm Here to Save Your Life proof that Gavin is still a killer songwriter. 9 Gavin Rossdale says he's on his best behaviour after 30 years in the rock 'n' roll spotlight Credit: Getty He says: 'When you've made a lot of records you do think, does anyone need any more. 'But then you have people say, 'Please don't stop making records.' A girl said this to me outside the back of a gig. 'And that stuck with me.' Next in the works for Gavin and Bush is a UK tour, which will hopefully become a reality next year after they've finished supporting Volbeat. 'The idea of doing that Volbeat tour is to sort of stoke the fires,' Gavin says. 'It's a wild, competitive world. And if you don't take things personally, like for me, I haven't played enough of those festivals. 'But instead of moaning about it, it's just sort of like, get out there, make a great record, do a great show all across Europe and then see what happens.' Glastonbury 2027 could also be in the pipeline — with the festival's next date coinciding with the 25th anniversary of Bush last playing there. 'I thought we did quite well when we played there, but we never went back so it could be time,' says Gavin. 'I would love to play Glastonbury. I still remember that show. 'It's brilliant and it would be 25 years . . .' All the more reason to get Emily Eavis on the blower then, Gavin. Lott of reasons to smile 9 Pregnant pop star Pixie Lott wowed fans at We Are Wirral Festival with a wild barefoot performance of her 2009 hit Mama Do Credit: Splash Pixie Lott did the best rendition of her 2009 hit Mama Do at We Are Wirral Festival. The pop star, who is seven months pregnant, took off her shoes and danced like crazy in this chic animal print dress at the event. Pixie announced she was expecting her second baby with husband, model Oliver Cheshire, last month. She thrilled fans by revealing the news live on stage at Mighty Hoopla by grabbing her tummy and shouting: 'I'm having another baby.' Her first son, Bertie, was born in 2023 and by the time his third birthday rolls around – there should be another member of the Lott family in the fold. Two kids under three is a challenge for any parent, Pixie – you got this. Sophie sweet on pop album 9 Sophie Ellis-Bextor is back with new album Perimenopop Credit: Getty Sabrina Carpenter, Dua Lipa and Chappell Roan have helped make pop cool again, but Sophie Ellis-Bextor insists she isn't riding on anyone's coattails. She is making a spectacular return with her album Perimenopop, which will be out in September, but said she isn't capitalising on the resurgence of fun tunes, or a result of Murder on the Dancefloor becoming a viral sensation. In an exclusive chat, Sophie said: 'I was already planning to make a pop album before I released my last record, because my last record. "It was a little bit more escapist and introverted, so I thought right, it's time to bounce to the other side now, the extrovert side. 'What happened with Murder was just a lovely bit of serendipity that made me feel like my instincts were in the right space.' And it sounds like she has fulfilled all her dreams when it came to making it, after teaming up with MNEK and Cathy Dennis, who wrote Toxic for Britney Spears and Can't Get You Out of My Head for Kylie Minogue. She said: 'Do you know what, I went to the full pop sweet shop for this album and I filled up my bag with as many sweets as I could, so I think I got my fill, actually.' She worked with her husband, the Feeling's Richard Jones, on the record too, but they still have fun away from the music. Sophie added: 'Richard and I just had our 20th wedding anniversary, which is pretty cool. 'We got married in Italy, so we went back to Italy, just the two of us, for a few nights without the kids. 'To do something that was just about us and not about gigs or delegating stuff with the family was really nice.' Selena's love for Tay 9 Selena Gomez marked her 33rd birthday with unseen snaps from her pre-party bash with Taylor Swift Credit: Instagram/Selena Gomez Selena Gomez celebrates her 33rd birthday today and she's in a reflective mood. The American singer shared a series of never-before-seen snaps from a pre-birthday get-together with her pals, including Taylor Swift and her fiancé Benny Blanco. Selena said: 'This past year has truly been the most beautiful year of my life, and I owe so much of that to all of you. Thank you for your unwavering love and kindness. 'Whether you cheered me on from the sidelines, shared in my highs and lows, or simply offered a listening ear, you have made this year unforgettable. 'I am extremely humbled and insanely appreciative of all your love.' I'll be raising a pint to you tonight, Selena. Not that I ever need much of an excuse. Giggs gig hits summer groove 9 Somerset House wrapped its Summer Series in style as rapper Giggs brought the house down for the venue's 25th anniversary Credit: The Mega Agency Somerset House saved the best until last with one of my favourite rappers, Giggs, invited to close their Summer Series. Waterloo Bridge would have been shaking on Sunday night after he took to the stage in front of a massive crowd as the London venue celebrated its 25th anniversary of concerts. Last week he dropped a new song with his son ML which touches on their experience of autism. Own Motion, which was originally written and released by ML, tells his story of feeling like he didn't fit in. Giggs is now on a remix of the song and opened up about his experience of the condition – admitting his autism saw him being labelled a 'troublemaker' when he was young. He said: 'I was always getting in trouble. 'I always used to answer back, get kicked out of class every single day until I just thought: 'Well, I'm bad'.' More tearjerkers from hitmaker Capaldi 9 Lewis Capaldi's upcoming EP promises his most personal music yet, exploring his hiatus and mental health journey Credit: Getty Lewis Capaldi has said his upcoming EP will be his most personal music to date – which is really saying something given he already has two albums of tearjerkers under his belt. He marked his return by topping the charts earlier this month with comeback single Survive. While his new songs will tell all about his two-year hiatus from showbiz and his mental health struggles. Speaking to a US radio station, he explained: 'I'm trying to sing different, on different songs, and I feel like the new stuff is a bit more personal. 'A lot of it is about the last two years and what I've been going through and stuff. The music is more about me than relationships and stuff. 'I'm really pleased with it. I like it. It's definitely harder. 'I got to a point where writing songs about relationships became really… I don't want to say easy, it wasn't easy, it's never easy writing songs. 'I find writing songs really difficult these days but writing songs about stuff you're still processing perhaps and the stuff you don't like talking about has been really hard.' Ellie has plenty of six appeal 9 Ellie Goulding has been teasing her new album, promising a deeply personal follow-up to her No1 record Brightest Blue Credit: Splash Ellie Goulding is preparing to bare her soul on her upcoming sixth album. She opened up to her fans as she celebrated the fifth anniversary of her No1 album Brightest Blue and said: 'If you guys liked this album I fear the next might be your new favourite . . . I've been working on it for so long. 'Guitars, bass, strings, harmonies for days, saddest words I ever wrote, best writers and musicians in the world – I am so lucky – and refusing to sound like anything else out there. 'Going to be interesting for sure.' Ellie saw her last record, Higher Than Heaven, go straight to No1 in 2023 and I've no doubt her sixth record is sure to hit the same dizzy heights. Fans of Avatar are in for a treat – as the first trailer for the next instalment, Fire and Ash, is going to be shown across cinemas from today. Film buffs heading to watch The Fantastic Four: First Steps will be the first to see the clips from the new James Cameron epic - which is out on December 19. Charli's hall date sees rise 9 Charli XCX and George Daniel's Hackney Town Hall wedding has sparked a surge in demand for such town hall venues Credit: Getty If you're getting married soon and are considering a town hall venue – you might have to get in there quick. After Charli XCX and George Daniel had their first formal ceremony at Hackney Town Hall at the weekend, I'm told demand for these venues is already getting out of hand. According to new research there has been a 156 per cent increase in Google searches for 'town hall wedding' – with a massive spike on Sunday after we revealed the details of Charli and the 1975 drummer George's very brat big day. I'm getting wed in 2027 but luckily for me, I've already booked my little village church. Unlock even more award-winning articles as The Sun launches brand new membership programme - Sun Club.

Lefty MPs accept Glastonbury tickets in freebie U-turn
Well, well, well. It transpires that a number of left-wing MPs enjoyed some time away from their constituencies at this year's Glastonbury festival, soaking up the sun, music and, of course, the pleasure of being there for free. Former Labour MP Zarah Sultana – who may or may not have patched things up with Jeremy Corbyn following a rather botched party launch announcement – was gifted two tickets by Glastonbury Festival Events Ltd worth £630 after attending as a guest speaker. Green MP Ellie Chowns also registered a single ticket for speaking at the festival, costing £390, while Labour's Clive Lewis accepted a ticket, after being invited to speak, at the same price. While the matter of speaking at public events is hardly something to complain about, Mr S is a little more interested in the hypocrisy displayed by the holier-than-thou lefties. They have been vocal about politicians accepting freebies in the past, with Sultana taking a pop at her former colleague, Labour Chancellor Rachel Reeves, for being out of touch by accepting donated gifts. Speaking in March, the MP for Coventry South made a pointed dig as she fumed: 'I ask the Chancellor – who earns over £150,000 annually, has accepted £7,500 worth of free clothing and recently took freebie tickets to see Sabrina Carpenter – does she think austerity 2.0 is the change people really voted for?' She makes a good point – so why then did Sultana, who receives at least £93,904 a year, accept her own pair of complimentary passes? Lewis is a Glasto regular – enjoying the music festival so much in 2016 that he stayed long enough to miss his debut appearance in the Commons as Corbyn's shadow defence secretary. And Chowns may wish to eat her words on gifting, after having pledged to her local constituency paper in October that she will both give away half her annual salary to various charities and, er, refuse freebies. 'My policy,' the Green MP declared, 'is to politely decline gifts.' How's that working out, eh? Sultana didn't take too kindly to having her double standards pointed out by Steerpike, however. After Mr S got in touch, the Independent MP took to social media to rage: 'By all means, run your story. It'll end up in the same gutter as the rest.' See you in the gutter comrade!

Down with the middle class
I suppose this magazine is probably not the best forum to launch a movement to sweep away the British middle class, much along the lines of Pol Pot's adventure in Kampuchea in the late 1970s, but one can only play with the cards one has been dealt. The more one reads the newspapers, the more inescapable becomes the conclusion that these are the people who are responsible for almost all that is bad, verging on wicked, in our society. Not the lower-middle class, incidentally (the petit bourgeoisie so despised by Marx they were denied even agency), but the comfortable tranche above them. The middle-middle. The professions, by and large. And, dare I say it, the people at Glasto (frankly, on stage and off). I have been reading the excellent report by Penny Mordaunt and John Mann into anti-Semitism in this country, which the two authors say left them 'stunned into silence'. My only quibble with what is, frankly, a harrowing report which shames our country is their apparent surprise that anti-Semitism has been 'normalised' among the British middle class. They wrote: 'We heard about the noisy demonstrations and how intimidating people find the current environment, but as we dug deeper what really scared us was the increasing normalisation of far more extreme, personalised and sometimes life-changing impact directed at individuals purely and simply because they are Jewish. Worrying dilemmas of where Jewish professionals believed that their professional body was actively discriminating against them but where they required membership from this body to be able to work and acquire the necessary protections.' They concluded with a plea to those in the middle-class spheres of activity – so the arts, most obviously, but more obviously still, the BBC – to undertake some kind of training programme. I would have them hoeing rice paddies in 35°C heat, in shackles, but perhaps that's just me. Did they think that among white Britons it was the working class that harboured anti-Semitic tendencies? That may have been true among a minority in the 1930s, but surely not since. It is our country's insufferable chattering classes who reach for their keffiyehs on their way to Waitrose. There is no aspect of wokedom which these morons will not swallow, be it the post-rational trans idiocies, cringing before the Black Lives Matter flag and denouncing Israel without having the slightest idea of what is actually going on in Gaza and with no appetite to learn. The working class don't do any of that stuff. Nor is it much use insisting that many anti-Semitic attacks come from Muslims. Of course it is true, but it is also beside the point. The hatred in a fairly large-ish swathe of British Muslims for Jewish people is a given – but is also given legitimacy by the actions of the affluent white folks who presumably think it wrong to murder homosexuals but when Muslim countries do it, it's fine. The problem is, these people – the middle-middle – have an influence way beyond their number. They run everything: our courts, our schools, our universities, our broadcast media, our arts establishment, our museums. Their visceral (and in the end suicidal) loathing of Great Britain and its history is matched only by their gullibility when faced with anyone who speaks Arabic or who claims that they have been subjugated as a consequence of their race. Except Jews, of course, except Jews. Let us move away from anti-Semitism for a moment and consider the case of Courtney Wright, aged 12, from Bilton (near Rugby) and what happened to her when she wore a Union Jack dress to her school's 'Culture Day'. What happened was this: she was taken from her classmates and kept in isolation, while the rest of the school pandered to all the other thrilling, vibrant and diverse cultures present. Other kids wearing St George's flags were similarly segregated and told that their choice of dress was 'inappropriate', while those in burqas, niqabs and Nigerian costume were cheered to the rafters by the thick-as-mince teachers. Courtney's dad, Stuart Field, said: 'She should not be made to feel embarrassed about being British. And she shouldn't be punished for celebrating British culture and history; nobody else I've spoken to can quite get their heads around it.' The school later offered an unreserved apology and said that it was considering how the incident could have been 'handled better'. Well, you handle it better next time by sacking the idiots who told pupils and staff that the Union Jack is the symbol of our cultural heritage and if you don't like it you might be better off living somewhere else. Or how about this? Don't have a bloody 'culture day' – instead concentrate on getting the kids through their examinations with decent grades, seeing as the school's academic record is predictably awful and well below both the national average and the average for the area. Pol Pot had the teachers working in the paddy fields. It seems a rather extreme answer to the problem, but so widespread is this pseudo-progressive mindset that I'm really not sure what alternative will do the trick. Either with the teachers or the middle- class anti-Semites. But back to Glastonbury for a moment. As might have been predicted, various deputy heads at the BBC have been sacked as a consequence of that debacle with the tuneful and likeable rap band Bob Vylan. But the point I tried to make when writing about the festival two weeks ago remains true. It is not, as the BBC thinks, a coming together of the nation. It is instead a mass rallying point for the middle-middle and a forum for their stupid politics. The overtly political nature of Glastonbury was not denied by the festival founder Michael Eavis. He said: 'If you don't like the politics of the event you can go elsewhere.' Is that clear enough for you, Tim Davie? Next year, go elsewhere.

I ballooned to 20st after mental breakdown at Glastonbury & I'm now on anti-psychotic medication, reveals Lewis Capaldi
After making a triumphant come back to the Glastonbury stage, the Scottish Singer lifts the lid on his journey to recovery LEW'S HEALTH BATTLE I ballooned to 20st after mental breakdown at Glastonbury & I'm now on anti-psychotic medication, reveals Lewis Capaldi Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) LEWIS Capaldi has revealed how he ballooned to 20 stone after his Glastonbury breakdown - but is battling back to health thanks to his fitness trainer brother and anti-psychotic pills. The Someone You Loved singer, 28, delighted fans at he returned to the festival's Pyramid Stage last month to play a surprise set, following a two-year break to focus on his mental health, Tourette's diagnosis and crippling anxiety. Sign up for the Entertainment newsletter Sign up 5 Lewis spoke candidly about rebuilding himself since his 2023 Glastonbury performance Credit: Theo Von podcast 5 He's undergone extensive therapy, learned to better manage his Tourette's, reduced his alcohol intake, improved his physical health, and switched his medication Credit: Theo Von podcast 5 Lewis struggling through his 2023 Glasto set, which prompted him to take a prolonged hiatus from music Credit: Alamy Reflecting on that difficult period, Lewis revealed the extent of his panic attacks in the lead-up to the 2023 festival - admitting experiencing his worst episode during a gig in America just weeks before he took to the Glastonbury stage. Speaking candidly on This Past Weekend with Theo Von, Bathgate-born Lewis said: "A few weeks prior to that show we were playing in Chicago and I had a very similar episode - it was probably even worse." "I couldn't come back and finish a song. I was backstage convulsing and having this crazy panic attack and mental episode. Way worse than what happened at Glastonbury." But the performance, though painful, was a public wake-up call that led Lewis to finally seek the help he needed, with Lewis adding: "Because Glastonbury is such a big stage, it was the first time people outside my shows had seen it. "At Glastonbury, when I came off stage it was weird, I had this (feeling) 'everything's alright now, I can actually go and get help and fix myself for the next two years.'" "In a weird way, it's probably the best thing that's ever happened to me. I wouldn't have stopped otherwise. "Glastonbury 2023 was, for sure, really important - maybe the most important day in my life." Opening up on his mental and physical journey on his return to the global stage, the Bathgate-born hitmaker has made some serious lifestyle changes. The Buckfast lover - who admitted to being 'all or nothing' when it came to boozing - revealed he's cut his intake right back, as well as following a healthier diet. He also thanked his 'no nonsense' therapist and even lifted the lid on his daily medication. But a huge trigger in his deterioration was down to the way he coped with being famous. Oasis fans swoop on pop-up barber shop the 'Gallaghairs' ahead of reunion tour gig He said: 'Being famous, I find, is the most embarrassing thing of all time. I walk into every room and you're either not famous enough or too famous to be in a room. 'I feel like everyone thinks that I think I'm awesome or they think who does he think he is - I feel so cringed up all the time when it comes to that side of things. 'I assume everyone in this room doesn't like me because they seen something I said online once or they think I try too hard to be silly or funny or think my music is s**t. 'Even taking about being famous or referring to yourself as famous is embarrassing -it goes back to external validation.' And although this unhealthy quest, he admitted, is still there - he's doing his utmost to tackle it. 'I'm already looking through comments and getting excited when I see a nice comment and really down when I see an awful one. 5 Lewis delighted the crowds at this year's Glasto - by making a surprise appearance and nailing his performance Credit: Cover Images 5 An-all-round healthier and healthier Lewis Credit: Theo Von podcast 'I'm trying to stop myself. 'This is the stuff that got you where you were last time'', he said. Therapy has been a lifeline for the star, who is a client of London-based psychotherapist and Sunday Times bestseller Owen O'Kane. He said: 'I do therapy every week which has been beneficial for me and has been the biggest thing that switched everything around. 'When I came off stage at Glastonbury, a therapist was the first thing I needed. 'My current therapist can sense when I'm being avoidant - he pulls me back in and says there's a reason I'm being wishy washy here. 'I cancelled two sessions back to back and he was on it saying, 'we don't have to do this, but it feels like you're not engaging in a way that's beneficial for you, you're wasting my time'. 'I really responded to him not letting me away with s**te.' Lewis also took a look at his relationship with alcohol, which he previously had to cut out completely while on tour prior to 2023 because he liked 'going out and having a good time.' He said: 'I definitely drank too much initially. There's always an excuse to go have a drink and I'm a bit all or nothing with it. 'I'm not an alcoholic but when I'm going out, I'm going out.' And he's even been hitting the gym - even though he hates it - and is already noticing big changes. He added: 'I'm trying not to eat as much s***e. I've lost two stone since the start of the year and I want to lose more - I was 20 stone at the start of the year. 'My brother is training me. He's a qualified PT now so he's been helping. I hate exercising - people can probably tell by looking at me but I hate it.' Lewis also claimed that swapping antidepressants for the anti-psychotic medication Aripiprazole, has 'changed his life.' He added 'It was really scary when they said anti psychotic - I was like I'm not psychotic. My anxiety levels are so low these days.' Following his return to the Pyramid Stage - which saw him perform new track Survive - Lewis confirmed he is hitting the road on a brand new tour in September. Ends
