Madonna looked after me financially, says DJ PAUL OAKENFOLD
Paul Oakenfold is a DJ and record producer. The 61-year-old Londoner has remixed songs for U2, Madonna and the Rolling Stones among other artists, and was voted No 1 DJ in the world in 1998 and 1999 by DJ Magazine, writes York Membery. At a time when top DJs could make a five-figure fee from one gig, he was the first to play the main stage at Glastonbury. He also supported Madonna on her Confessions tour and was the opening act for the Pet Shop Boys and New Order on their Unity Tour in 2022. The father-of-two – and lifelong Chelsea FC fan – lives in Los Angeles. What did your parents teach you about money? I was one of three children and grew up in Highbury, north London, and then south London. My dad Peter delivered the London Evening News for most of his working life and my mum Sheila, now in her mid-80s, worked for British Telecom. We were a normal, hard-working London family. My parents taught me the importance of working hard and saving for a rainy day. And that rainy day finally came 40 years later, when Covid prevented me from working – doing live events – for 18 months. I didn't get any help from the government in America, where I lived. As a result, I had to live off my savings during those dark days. Have you ever struggled to make ends meet? Yes, I left school at 16, trained to be a chef and then got a job at London's Army and Navy Club, which paid £24 a week. That wouldn't get you a round at the pub now, and didn't go far back then either. But then I got into the music business and things began to look up. Have you ever been paid silly money? Not compared to what some of the world's top DJs can earn now. Sure, I got well paid in the 1990s and 2000s – but today's superstar DJs can get paid a six-figure sum for one show. Sadly, I missed that money boat! It's a bit like the difference between what top footballers got paid then and now. But I'll never stop, because music is my passion. What was the best year of your financial life? Probably in the late 90s or early noughties, though I never got into music just for the money. In music, the money just comes when you become the best at what you do. Touring with the likes of U2 and Madonna was financially rewarding, and artists look after you, although Madonna would fly on her own plane and I'd be on the staff plane! Some of the remixes I've done have paid well, but you just get a fee, not a percentage of sales. The most expensive thing you bought for fun? I'm a huge James Bond fan, and several years ago bought a used Aston Martin DB9 for around £60,000-£70,000. I'd never really had a nice car, so I thought I'd treat myself. Driving it around LA was fun, but I spend so much time on the road touring – I'm gigging pretty much every weekend – that I sold it in the end. Nowadays I just use Uber to get around town. What has been your biggest money mistake? I've spent a fortune on records – I've got about 35,000 – and on seeing my beloved Chelsea, and some people might regard that as a money mistake! But both have given me plenty of pleasure so I can't complain. I've also bought some stage outfits that only saw the light of day once or twice, so they weren't a good buy. Best money decision you have made? My record collection, which spans the decades. I've got all sorts of records, though no 78 RPMs – I'm not that old! My favourite record in my collection? It's got to be Chelsea's Blue Is The Colour – a top-five hit for the team in 1972. I'm a huge Chelsea fan, always buy their latest strip and see them whenever I'm in the UK. I'm hoping for a top-four finish this season. Will you pass money down or spend it all? I've got a son who is 18 and a daughter who is 14, so if I've got any money left when I meet my maker, I'll give it to them. But I'm not going to tell them that. I come from a hard-grafting family, was given nothing and had a paper round at 14 paying a fiver a week. I want them to grow up with the same values as me, and an understanding that you have to work for the good things in life. Do you have a pension? Yes, I've paid into a private pension for donkey's years so I hopefully won't be short of a quid or two. Mind you, I plan to keep working until I drop. If Mick Jagger can do it, so can I. Do you own any property? No, I rent a three-bedroom house in LA. I was in LA last year when the wildfires broke out and got evacuated. Luckily my house was fine. But I'd like to move back to the UK because I miss family and friends, not to mention beans on toast, British beer and the sense of humour. What would you do if you were Chancellor? In a perfect world, I'd like to lower taxes so people had more money to spend. To be honest, I'd rather leave that sort of thing to the experts. What is your number one financial priority? To build my rainy day fund back up. It got hammered during the pandemic, so I'll be a lot happier when it's looking a bit healthier.

Turning Up the Volume on Female Empowerment: Paul Oakenfold Joins the Movement
Global DJ Icon Paul Oakenfold Joins Forces with Justice for Women International to Champion Female Empowerment Through Music and Poetry 'This project is deeply personal. Music can spark change, and this album was created to give voice to stories that need to be heard.'— Paul Oakenfold LOS ANGELES, CA, UNITED STATES, July 30, 2025 / / -- World-renowned DJ and music producer Paul Oakenfold is once again using his artistry for a higher cause—this time, in support of Justice for Women International, a leading organization advocating for the protection, freedom, and dignity of women worldwide. In an impassioned new project, Oakenfold collaborated with acclaimed producer Mally Mall and humanitarian, lyricist, and creative force Daphna Ziman, producing a groundbreaking album that fuses spoken word poetry with immersive soundscapes. The poems—written and recited by Ziman herself—resonate with raw emotion, capturing the pain, resilience, and triumph of women who have faced injustice. Among the highlights of the album is the single " Humanity.' The powerful track has already caught the attention of legendary artist Chaka Khan, who posted on social media describing it as 'a powerful song that calls for unity, compassion, and healing.' 'I've always supported Justice for Women International,' said Oakenfold. 'I've been working with Daphna for a few years now, supporting and understanding her and her company's efforts to extinguish economical, emotional, and physical violence against women. This project is deeply personal. Music can spark change, and this album was created to give voice to stories that need to be heard.' This isn't the first time the three creatives have come together in service of social impact. Their latest venture continues a tradition of using artistic collaboration to raise awareness about gender-based violence and systemic inequality. With Oakenfold's signature sonic storytelling, Mally Mall's bold production, and Ziman's soul-stirring poetry, the album is already generating buzz as an audio revolution—a call to action that is both intimate and universal. Oakenfold, a titan of the global music scene, has long been a champion of powerful female voices in the entertainment industry. From global festivals to studio sessions, he has consistently partnered with women who are breaking barriers and rewriting narratives in music and beyond. The album, set for release later this year, will benefit Justice for Women International, with proceeds going directly toward the organization's legal, psychological, and humanitarian aid efforts across the globe. About Justice for Women International Justice for Women International is a nonprofit organization committed to fighting for the rights and freedom of women worldwide. Through legal advocacy, support services, and global campaigns, the organization works to end exploitation and violence against women while empowering survivors to reclaim their voices.

Sutton's final-day predictions v superstar DJ Paul Oakenfold
Liverpool were crowned Premier League champions weeks ago but the predictions title race has gone to the Sport football expert Chris Sutton leads the way going into the final day of the season, but only by virtue of the total points he has scored compared to his guests (see tables at bottom of page). The BBC readers are further back but can still have a say on who will finish top - if you or Chris win this week, then he will triumph for a third-successive season."I really hope the readers win this week, because I am not confident of beating my guest at all," said Sutton."The last day of the season always sees some unexpected results, whether teams have anything to play for or not."Sutton is making predictions for all 380 Premier League games this season, against a variety of week 38, he takes on superstar DJ and producer Paul Oakenfold, who is a Chelsea new track, Novacaine, is out now. He starts his European tour in Brighton on you agree with their scores? You can make your own predictions most popular scoreline selected for each game is used in the scoreboards and tables at the bottom of this page.A correct result (picking a win, draw or defeat) is worth 10 points. The exact score earns 40 points. Oakenfold has been a Chelsea fan for more than 50 years but he could easily have started supporting a different London club as a boy, until a visit to Stamford Bridge made his mind up for good."My whole family are Arsenal supporters but I went to Chelsea with my cousin, and that was it for me," he told BBC Sport. "I was so young, I just liked the whole King's Road and the colour blue. "I just wasn't feeling Arsenal despite them being a much more successful team at that time - I liked the whole idea of an underdog, and that's what we were back then."A lot has changed at Chelsea down the decades that Oakenfeld has been following them, but he has got favourite players from every period."My first heroes were when I first went, the era of Peter Bonetti, Peter Osgood, Ron 'Chopper' Harris and Ian Hutchinson," he explained. "That was the era that I first got excited and was going to watch them."We have had plenty of big stars since then, like Ruud Gullit, Michael Ballack and Gianluca Vialli but the big moment for Chelsea and Chelsea fans was actually when Gianfranco Zola came in 1996."Zola would pick up the ball and run at people, he would do tricks to beat them and he got you out of your seat. That was the first time we had someone really that good, and that exciting."Since then we have players like Eden Hazard who can do the same but Zola was the first one where you would watch him and just be thinking 'oh my god!' Diego Maradona taught him how to take free-kicks too - there was nothing he couldn't do."Chris Sutton and Paul Oakenfold were speaking to BBC Sport's Chris Bevan. Premier League predictions Sunday, 25 May Vitality Stadium, 16:00 BSTIt's a little odd that Jamie Vardy is not going to play for Leicester on Sunday after his farewell game at King Power Stadium last week.I'd only just got him in my Fantasy team, in time for his 200th goal for the Foxes, but he is coming out again now and, without him, I don't fancy Leicester to score. Bournemouth were a bit flat against Manchester City on Tuesday and were well beaten in the end, but I am expecting a better showing from them defeat means the Cherries can no longer finish eighth so their hopes of European football are over but a win here would give them a chance of equalling their highest-ever finish of ninth place (in 2016-17). That's what I'm going prediction: 2-0Paul's prediction: Bournemouth to win this one. 2-0 Craven Cottage, 16:00 BSTManchester City were really good in their win over Bournemouth on Tuesday, and they did not let the disappointment of last weekend's FA Cup final defeat affect them. Omar Marmoush was excellent, they created lots of chances and defended strongly still made mistakes, though, and the stray passes that led to Mateo Kovacic being sent off and also gifted Bournemouth a late goal are the kind of simple errors you don't expect their players to will miss Kovacic here because he gives them legs in midfield and knits their play together so well, and without him I have a sneaky feeling that this will not be a straightforward afternoon for them. The way the season has gone for Pep Guardiola's side, I would not put it past them to screw this only need a point to secure a top-five finish and maintain their ever-present record in the Champions League since 2011 but, with the way Fulham play, they are in for a tough time at Craven Cottage.I still think City will find a way of winning, but me saying that is probably bad news for Pep Guardiola's side. I've found it impossible to predict Fulham all season and, whatever I say they will do, I am usually prediction: 1-2Paul's prediction: A draw would do for City but they are going to win this. They are going to go for it, and Fulham don't have much to play for but I still think it will be close. City will definitely grab two goals and while Fulham will score, it will only be a consolation. 1-2 Portman Road, 16:00 BSTFair play to any fans, home or away, who are going to this have won only once at home all season, while West Ham have been woeful for weeks now and will be glad to see the back of this campaign Ipswich fans have still always backed their team despite their poor form at Portman Road so it would be nice for them to end on some kind of a high note after their relegation, but I just don't see it Ham supporters have not had much to smile about either, but Jarrod Bowen has been one of the few bright spots for the Hammers recently. He is a quality player, and he might make the difference here prediction: 0-1Paul's prediction: Neither of them have had good seasons, have they? 1-1 Anfield, 16:00 BSTThis is an example of an end-of-season game which is impossible to predict. It is the champions versus the FA Cup winners but I have no idea what kind of teams both managers will put have pretty much been on the beach since they secured their title at the end of April, while Palace left out several first-team players in their win over Wolves on Tuesday, with Eberechi Eze and Jean-Philippe Mateta only coming on for the last 10 are on a high after their Wembley win last weekend and if Eze and Mateta start against a weakened Liverpool side then I'd fancy the Eagles' chances. They have got some good players, and the pressure is completely off have to think that Arne Slot will go with a strong side here, though, to finish a great season with a win in front of the Anfield crowd before Liverpool get their hands on the Premier League trophy at what I am guessing Slot will do, but it's a big gamble by me with my predictions title on the might do something very different and Eze and Mateta could cause carnage if Virgin van Dijk is left on the bench again, like he was in Monday's defeat by prediction: 3-1Paul's prediction: It's good for the Premier League to see two teams like Newcastle and Crystal Palace win a cup this year. I am going for a draw because Palace are on a high. It is at Anfield and it is the last game of the season - usually I would go with Liverpool all day long but they have taken their foot off the pedal. 1-1 Old Trafford, 16:00 BSTThis might seem like one of the most stupid things I have ever said, but this is a massive game for Manchester United boss Ruben the fall-out after their Europa League final defeat, there have been further question marks over his inability to change his system, and also how there is seemingly a lack of thought going into his substitutions after how late he left them against Spurs - his first changes came after 71 said after Wednesday's defeat in Bilbao that if the club's owners want to get rid of him, he would go without getting any compensation. When he comes out with stuff like that, it almost sounds to me as if he wants the had a lot of United fans on 606 after the game and I can understand both sides of the argument when it comes to Amorim's one hand, he hasn't adapted his tactics to English football and you could say the United team has got worse under him, which is a hard thing to do after Erik ten Hag's stint in then you also have to consider how Amorim was kind of railroaded into taking the job in November, after being told he had to come in straightaway or he might not get the job at the end of the season. He said then that he needed to play his system, and he hasn't been able to bring his own players in to do problem now, though, is even if he does get the backing of the United hierarchy and gets given the chance to bring his own players in this summer, who is going to want to come to Old Trafford?There is no European football as an incentive, and that is a massive Amorim badly needs some kind of positive result to end the season with, and he would probably bite your hand off now if you offered him a draw against Aston Villa, who really need a win to have a chance of making the top what's at stake for Villa, though, I am expecting them to take the points. Unai Emery's side will be too good for United, and Ollie Watkins and Morgan Rogers could really do some damage to their defence.I feel sorry for Amorim, because he seems like a really nice guy who is very likeable, but that won't help him keep his asked one United fan who called up 606 on Wednesday night whether he would want to keep Amorim on and he said he would love to have Sunday lunch with him, but that's not the same as wanting him to stay on as manager, is it?Sutton's prediction: 1-2Paul's prediction: I have DJed at Old Trafford and at Etihad Stadium for Soccer Aid. I sat in the directors' box at both grounds and at City they have got heated seats - you can press a button and warm them up. Man United have not got that! We could do with Villa dropping points here, but I can't see United helping us out. 1-2 St James' Park, 16:00 BSTNewcastle are at home, and their superior goal difference means they know any sort of win will keep them in the Champions League places regardless of what Aston Villa do.I usually fancy Eddie Howe's side to win when they are at St James' Park but there are serious doubts over Alexander Isak's fitness which is a real worry. I would have a different feeling if he was in the top of that, Everton are an awkward team to break down, who also carry an attacking threat with Beto in such good I don't think this will be straightforward at all. I am still backing the Magpies, but I would not be surprised if Everton nicked a prediction: 2-0Paul's prediction: Newcastle need a win and they are going to get it. 2-1 City Ground, 16:00 BSTWhat a game this is, and it's a must-watch if you're a neutral too. Nothing against my old club Chelsea, but I'd love to go with my heart and say Nottingham Forest will beat them and finish in the top five - it's just I don't think either of those things will City Ground will be absolutely jumping, of course, but it was the same for Forest's past three home league games, against Leicester, Brentford and Everton, and they only have one point to show for them - from their draw with the are probably going to need a win too, to finish above Aston Villa and stay in the top five, but I can see this ending in the result neither team wants, which is a was the result when they met at Stamford Bridge in October, in a game that saw a thrilling finish with chances at both ends. I am expecting more of the same here, with both sides ending up prediction: 1-1Paul's prediction: I think we will win but I am not sure who is going to get our goals because both our senior centre-forwards are this could be a disaster season. We could draw at Forest and see Newcastle and Villa win so we don't make the Champions League, and Real Betis [who Chelsea play in next week's Europa Conference League final] are dangerous too. They are sixth in La Liga and they are on fire, especially Antony, the kid on loan from Manchester top of that, Tottenham are one place above the bottom three but they have got in the Champions League, so we really have to get in there next season too. I don't care who scores our goals, we just have to win! 1-2Paul on his favourite Chelsea player: How can you pick one? Frank Lampard obviously comes to mind as well as Zola but then there is Didier Drogba, there is Diego Costa and Eden Hazard... I can't pick one, I don't think you can, on Chelsea's future prospects: I look at our team and think we are still two to three seasons away from where people eventually expect us to be because we have a lot of young players, on long-term deals. Already we seeing some of them really come good - Enzo Fernandez, Marc Cucurella and Moises Caicedo for example. I am still not sure about our manager, but we will see. St Mary's Stadium, 16:00 BSTThere will be Arsenal fans going to this game who are really jealous of Tottenham and what they have achieved this season, you can be sure of Arteta's side have been miles better than Spurs, obviously, but they don't have a trophy to show for it, unlike their north London rivals, and trophies are what football is absurd to suggest Arteta should be any under pressure for my prediction, well this one is pretty easy to call. Arsenal are without the injured William Saliba at the back, but they have got Declan Rice as their driving force and this should be a routine win for the held out for a draw against Manchester City in their previous home game but I expect they are still too worn out from celebrating that point to get anything prediction: 0-2Paul's prediction: Arsenal to edge it. 0-1 Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, 16:00 BSTThe proverb 'he who laughs last, laughs longest' certainly applies to Tottenham boss Ange Postecoglou, who has answered his critics by winning the Europa League and will be able to enjoy a party atmosphere on Sunday too.I am delighted for Ange because some of the flak he has taken has been extraordinarily over the top. One newspaper suggested he would be known as a clown if Spurs had lost Wednesday's final, which is the kind of thing I haven't read since the days when England boss Graham Taylor was compared to a people who write that kind of thing either don't look at Postecoglou's track record or they have been dismissive of it. Fair play to him, because he came out a few months back and talked about always winning something in his second season at a said it because it was true and also because he believed he could win a trophy this season with Spurs too and, you know what, he has gone and backed it up. There were so many people out there who were desperate for him to fail, but he has rammed that down their is a good guy, but people were continuously trying to poke him and provoke him in interviews. He wants to stay as Spurs boss and I hope he does but, regardless of what happens in the summer, he has proved he is a winner. He is a legendary figure at Tottenham now, and I am absolutely made up for players gave everything against Manchester United and it was a defensive masterclass. I hear a lot about how Tottenham always play the same way under Postecoglou, but that wasn't 'Ange-ball' as I know it - with their lack of possession in that game (27%), it was more like 'Ange-wall'.I am not sure how much the Spurs players will have left in their legs for this game, especially against a Brighton team who have found a bit of form, are playing with freedom and are also looking to secure eighth place and possibly a European spot why I am going for the Seagulls to win - but I don't think the Spurs fans will care too much about this result, and understandably prediction: 1-2Paul's prediction: Spurs will be on a high after winning the Europa League. 2-1 Molineux, 16:00 BSTI am not sure which Wolves we will see here - after going on a six-match winning streak, they have now lost three games in a row - or if their star forward Matheus Cunha will be recalled after starting Tuesday's defeat by Crystal Palace on the still have an outside chance of finishing eighth despite losing at home to Fulham last week - I admit I did not see that result coming, but I rarely do when Fulham are have been great on the road recently and have only lost one away game since Christmas, but I am going to go for a draw here for tactical reasons, because I think everyone else will prediction: 1-1Paul's prediction: A hard one to call, let's go for a draw. 1-1 How did Sutton do last week? Sutton needed a win to keep his predictions title hopes alive going into the final week of the season, and he got one in got seven correct results, including four exact scores, from the 10 Premier League games in week 37, giving him a total of 190 was enough to beat his guest, DJ and producer Barry Can't Swim, who got five correct results with no exact scores, for a tally of 50 also outdid the BBC readers - using the most popular scoreline from your predictions for each game - who got six correct results, with two exact scores, for a total of 120 victory puts Chris back on top of the predictions table - level with the guests on outright weekly wins but above them thanks to his superior points tally - but will he stay there?

Four Tet, Orbital, Paul Oakenfold, Mogwai and Deftones frontman Chino Moreno are among the artists crafting remixes for the aptly named Mixes of a Lost World, which recasts material from the Cure's acclaimed 2024 comeback album Songs of a Lost World. The new volume is out June 13 from Fiction/Capitol, and the Cure are donating all recording royalties to War Child U.K. Four Tet's version of 'Alone' and Oakenfold's remix of 'Can Never Say Goodbye' are both out now.

'The Cure has a colorful history with all kinds of dance music, and I was curious as to how the whole album would sound entirely reinterpreted by others. This curiosity resulted in a fabulous trip through all eight songs by 24 wonderful artists and remixers and is way beyond anything I could have hoped for. Giving our recording royalties from the project to War Child helps make Mixes of a Lost World an even more special release.' The cover art for the album, based on the 1976 Janez Pirnat sculpture Bagatelle, has also been reworked by longtime collaborator Andy Vella.
