EXCLUSIVE: Daily Star ventured down to Reading Festival to check out this year’s stacked lineup with some of the biggest names in rock and metal right now19:53, 31 Aug 2025Updated 19:56, 31 Aug 2025Reading Festival’s Saturday lineup was one of the best this festival season.I went along on Saturday 23 August and to catch Enter Shikari, Limp Bizkit and Bring Me The Horizon, a day which quickly became one of my favourite live music experiences to date.I’ve been a personal fan of all three bands since my early teens so yeah, you could say I have some bias, but there’s no denying it was a truly mind-blowing event for rock and metal fans alike. Enter Shikari kicked off the night, a band I’ve been meaning to catch live ever since I started going to gigs, and they were far better than I could have ever expected.Limp Bizkit followed and played all their classics, from Nookie to Break Stuff to their iconic performance of Full Nelson with one lucky fan they pulled up on stage (shoutout Brooke). The atmosphere was electric as everyone in the crowd shouted from the tops of their voices and waited for BMTH’s grand finale to close out the night.Limp Bizkit were incredible live…more like this next year please!(Image: Getty Images)Oli always puts on a good show but their NeX GEn era has allowed the band to worldbuild like nothing I’ve ever seen before. Screens lit up with a giant talking monster and a robot…thing…that scanned the crowd and warped faces into unrecognisable living dead figures.BMTH’s immersive on-stage storyline featured AI zombies, bald angels, performers in hazmat suits, a church backdrop covered in snow and an homage to Britpop icons Oasis with a heavy metal version of Wonderwall to top it all off.Their whole set felt like a video game – as one song finished another level unlocked, with lore to discover and computer viruses to defeat (just watch their set on BBC iPlayer if you don’t know what I’m talking about).BMTH’s post-apocalyptic theme featured giant talking cyborgs, wild pyrotechnics and crazy green lazers(Image: Getty Images)Reading Festival organisers, I’m speaking to you directly: Keep. It. Up! This year’s Saturday lineup was legendary and it will certainly be a hard one to beat in 2026, but I have faith you can go bigger and better than ever before if you stay on this path.In other festival news, disposable vapes are the latest sustainability challenge in the ongoing single-use plastic problem at festivals and events. The new disposable vape ban came into effect on 1st June 2025, but festival-goers will still be able to take in alternative options and get their nicotine moment with nicotine pouches from brands such as Nordic Spirit.Article continues belowJoin the Daily Star’s WhatsApp for the sexiest headlines, showbiz gossip and lots moreThe Daily Star is now on WhatsApp and we want you to join us!Through the app, we’ll send you the sassiest showbiz stories, some naught headline and a seismic smattering of aliens…along with the latest breaking news of course.To join our community, all you have to do to join isclick on this link, select ‘Join Chat’ and you’re in!No one will be able to see who has sign up and no one can send messages except for the Daily Star team.

Katie Price is set to sell her used clothes on Vinted for “cheap” as she is “sick” of having boxes full of her outfits and footwear stacked up in her four-bed home in Sussex, South East England.18:43, 31 Aug 2025Updated 18:43, 31 Aug 2025It’s going cheap(Image: BANG Showbiz)Katie Price is preparing to flog her second-hand clobber on Vinted. The 47 year old model is planning to shift her garments and shoes for “cheap” prices on the online marketplace because she’s fed up with having countless boxes of her outfits and footwear cluttering up her four-bedroom Sussex pad.Speaking to her sister Sophie, 35, on the latest instalment of The Katie Price Show podcast, Katie revealed: “If anyone likes anything I’ve worn through the years up till now – oh my God, packing the amount of boxes of clothes, I’m like, ‘Oh my God, there it is. Oh my God, I’ve got that. I don’t even want it.'”.She continued: “Shoes, trainers, clothes. I’ve got to start Vinted. Not because I just want to make money from it, I just want to get rid of it.”She’s flogging her gear(Image: Nordin Catic, Getty Images for The Cambridge Union)The reality star added: “Otherwise, it’s sitting there, and I just want to get rid of it. I’m not even going to sell it for a lot of money, just cheap, just to get rid of it.”She emphasised her desperation to declutter, saying: “I have to. I can’t keep carrying around boxes of clothes everywhere.”The TV personality – who flogged her old underwear and bras in frames back in 2023 – even discovered a pair of unworn Nike Air trainers belonging to her eldest son Harvey, whom she shares with former Manchester United footballer Dwight Yorke, 53. Harvey, aged 23, is blind and autistic, suffers from septo-optic dysplasia—a disorder affecting early brain development—and has Prader-Willi syndrome, a rare genetic condition causing physical symptoms, learning difficulties, and behavioural challenges.Katie shared: “I’ve even got Harvey’s trainers from the year when he was born. They’re 23 years old. Remember, he didn’t walk, but I was the same, we had to have the in-trainers. So whatever the Nikes were then, I wonder if they’re worth anything because they’re 23 years old in good condition.”Sophie then reminisced about Harvey owning Adidas Stan Smith shoes adorned with frogs. Katie still possesses the footwear, but she doesn’t allow Harvey to wear them as they appear “battered”.Sophie queried: “Didn’t he have Stan Smiths with frogs on, with Kermit or something?”. Katie – who has a 50 year old brother named Daniel – retorted: “Oh, them b***** things. I’ve still got them. I refuse him to wear them.”Sophie probed: “Why?”. Katie explained: “Because he wears them every day. They look battered. And if I put them in the washing machine, I don’t know if they’re – that’s the thing with Harv.”He has so many nice trainers, but he ends up liking the same ones. So if anyone sees me with Harv, and they look at his footwear, like a pair of his trainers, I think they’re Nike Air ones, you know, the bubbles in them. They’ve popped.Article continues below”They’ve popped, and I’m like, ‘I don’t know how they’ve popped.’ With his weight, probably, I don’t know. But he still insists on wearing them. I’m like, ‘Harv, but the air bubbles have popped.’ They did look old.”Katie is also mum to Junior, 20, and Princess, 18, whom she shares with her ex-husband, singer Peter Andre, 52. She has two more children, Jett, 12, and Bunny, 11, from her previous marriage to Kieran Hayler, who’s 38.For the latest breaking news and stories from across the globe from the Daily Star, sign up for our newsletters.

Incident happened when the actress while she was shooting 2019 musical Les Misérables and she had to say , ‘I’m so sorry’ after the awful incident18:11, 31 Aug 2025Updated 18:17, 31 Aug 2025Olivia Colman once made a child cry(Image: Getty Images )Olivia Colman learned the hard way that you should never work with children – after making a child sob. The old showbiz adage rang true for the actress while she was shooting 2019 musical Les Misérables.Olivia, who played meanie Madame Thénardier, recalled: “I was meant to hit this little girl. She had padding down her back and I had a belt. I hit her once, half-heartedly, and I burst into tears, ‘I can’t do it, I can’t hit her.’ She was like, ‘No, do it, look, do it,’ and she was hitting herself.“There was also one little girl, who was the younger version [of the character], who didn’t speak English.Doris was one of Olivia’s most iconic roles(Image: UNIVERSAL PICTURES)“She started to look like she was crying, and I went, ‘Oh, shut up’ because I thought she was acting. But she actually started to cry. I went, ‘I’m so sorry!’ It was awful.”Olivia returns to the small screen in Netflix ’s adaptation of Pride And Prejudice. And she’ll also reprise her role as Angela Burr in the follow-up to 2016 spy drama The Night Manager.And the mum-of-three recalled director Susanne Bier’s advice on the set of the original: “I was massively pregnant, and [Susanne] said, ‘Could you walk less pregnant?’ I was like, ‘No, there’s a head in my pelvis!’”Before Hollywood fame, Olivia landed the role of PC Doris Thatcher in 2007’s Hot Fuzz. The police officer cracked a number of cheeky one liners throughout the comedy film, which is part of the Cornetto Trilogy.When Sergeant Angel first meets Doris, he corrects Danny for calling her a “police woman” by quipping: “She’s a police officer. Being a woman has nothing to do with it,” to which she replies: “Oh I don’t know, comes in handy every so often! I could have given you the tour…I’ve been around the station a few times.”Later on, another hilarious scene shows the force inspecting a car crash. One of the officers noticed that the top came off the vehicle and Colman hilariously responds: “I’ve had my top off in this lay-by,” with a filthy giggle.When being told not to eat late at night Doris snaps: “I like a midnight gobble,” and while standing over a spit roast pig she jokes: “That’ll be me after a few pints!”Olivia’s character has become somewhat of a comedy icon and over on Reddit, Hot Fuzz fans have been discussing the actress’ razor-sharp delivery and quick wit. One person wrote: “I don’t believe she had a single line in the entire movie that was not a joke or innuendo,” as another typed: “Colman is a f—ing gem – glad some new folks are getting exposed to here. Check out Peep Show as well.”Article continues belowFor the latest breaking news and stories from across the globe from the Daily Star, sign up for our newsletters. More

I’ve been a WWE fan ever since the day I saw The Undertaker beat Hulk Hogan with a Tombstone Piledriver to win the WWF Championship. I was nine-years-old and absolutely mesmerised by the larger than life characters of the squared circle. And as I got older, I clearly didn’t grow up, because my love of […] More

Penny Lancaster has opened up about her marriage to Sir Rod Stewart, revealing the singer still likes to have a say in what she wears – and he’s not a fan of trousersAndy Gilpin Deputy Editor in Chief13:56, 31 Aug 2025Penny Lancaster’s husband Sir Rod Stewart tells her what clothes he prefers her to wear(Image: BANG Showbiz)Penny Lancaster’s husband Sir Rod Stewart tells her what clothes he prefers her to wear. The 54-year-old former model – who wed Rod, 80, in 2007 – has revealed how the rocker continues to influence her fashion choices, even after decades together.Speaking to the Daily Mail whilst promoting her forthcoming memoir Someone Like Me, Penny opened up about instances where Rod guided her towards particular looks, even pre-selecting designer ensembles ahead of their holidays – whilst confessing Rod despises seeing her in trousers.She said: “When you think about controlling, coercive behaviour and the signs to look for, you could think, hang on – telling me how to dress, what to wear.”But (his preferences weren’t) coming from that direction. He knew I was coming into a lifestyle where there were wealthy people, and I was going to require different outfits. And he thought: ‘She’s special, I’m going to treat her. I’m going to surprise her.'”.Penny described how during an early getaway to Barbados, Rod told her not to bother unpacking as he’d filled the villa with rails of couture garments in her exact measurements.She recalled: “He was clearly a man used to being in command of his world, including what I’d wear on holiday.”Penny noted his tastes haven’t shifted over time. She explained: “He’ll pick something up in a shop and say, ‘Darling, look at this.’ And I’ll say: ‘That’s skintight and not for my tummy.'”‘OK, what about this?’ And I’ll say, ‘My boobs are too big for it, darling.’ He doesn’t see me as I see me. I’ve aged, but he doesn’t see it. How lovely is that?”.Article continues belowPenny disclosed that Rod frequently expresses his disapproval of particular outfits. According to The Mail, Rod “firmly prefers his wife in skirts”, and occasionally chides her with the phrase: “Oi. Trousers!”. More
