Radiohead want to play their rejected James Bond song for Spectre in full on their European tour later this year. The band have whittled the setlist down to 70 songs and have banned brother Colin and Johnny Greenwood from choosing the songs because they are too indecisive.12:02, 06 Sep 2025Radiohead are back later in 2026(Image: Getty Images)RADIOHEAD fans will be shaken (not stirred) by the band’s James Bond song at their upcoming gigs. The Oxford art rockers play their first shows in seven years across five cities later this year, including a London O2 Arena residency.The song they’re looking forward to playing most is their rejected 007 anthem Spectre which has only ever been aired briefly in acoustic fashion before.Bassist Colin Greenwood revealed: “I’d love to play the song Spectre. We did it in America for Moon Shaped Pool, Thom (Yorke) played it on the Rhodes keyboard. But I want to play it as a full band type thing, a la Paul McCartney Live & Let Die – there’s a massive bit in the middle.”Bassist Colin Greenwood is in mood for 007(Image: Getty Images North America)This year marks the 30th anniversary of Radiohead’s celebrated second album, The Bends but they’re not planning to play the whole thing.Instead Colin spilled: “It’s going to be a mixed set, we’ve whittled it down to 70 songs and me and my brother (guitarist Johnny) are not on the setlist committee, we’re not allowed. Because we are too indecisive!”Radiohead gigs are renowned for their intricacy but it sounds like the band are winging it this time.“We are going to take what we did in the summer of ‘24 when we did that jam, and we’re not doing many rehearsals either, so it all seems quite sort of relaxed,” said Colin referring to the band’s brief hook-up last year. “We will play anything in any order at any time. We take a busking attitude to the Radiohead setlist. We are playing everything – stuff from the first record right through to now. It’s going to be the first time we’ve done shows where we haven’t got new material as work in progress, but you never know; stuff might come up or whatever.”Thom Yorke and Colin Greenwood(Image: FilmMagic)Colin described doing residencies in Madrid, Bologna, Berlin and Copenhagenas “a bit Sinatra-esque” instead of a regular tour. He also confirmed they will have two drummers on stage again as they have on previous tours: “Phil (drummer Selway) is working on it at the moment it’s great for me because I get to check in what each of them are doing, I can wander over and Phil loves it because I can stop hassling him.”Rumours last minute gigs by the band were wide of the mark confirmed Colin who say’s it’s impossible to get the venues. He told the Adam Buxton podcast: “Reality is if you want to start making plans or doi any shows for us you have to give the venues a minimum of a year to a year and a half notice , so if anyone thinks that anyone in Radiohead says they’re gonna do some touring and there are rumours about it – it’s not going to happen because you have that 18 months; post Covid everywhere is sold out. Getting your slot to play is such a long term thing there’s never going to be any last minute announcements.”Radiohead kick off the UK London shows on November 21.For the latest breaking news and stories from across the globe from the Daily Star, sign up for our newsletter by clicking here.Article continues below More

One of the funniest, feel-good film trilogies is only available to stream on Netflix for a few more days despite rumours that a fourth instalment is on the cards11:00, 06 Sep 2025You have just days left to watch one of the most iconic film trilogies of the 21st century on Netflix.The beloved comedy series starring Anna Kendrick, Rebel Wilson, Brittany Snow, Anna Camp, Skylar Austin, Elizabeth Banks and Hana Mae Lee was a smash hit with audiences when it was released back in 2012. Pitch Perfect will be leaving the streaming platform on 15 September, so get streaming to catch all three before they’re gone for good.The plot follows an all-girl a cappella group who go head to head against another team from their college in an attempt to bring home the International Collegiate A Cappella Championship.The Barden Bellas attend Barden University and members Aubrey and Chloe try to recruit new members – however, the group’s reputation has been destroyed after one member vomited on stage during a recent tournament.Anna Kendrick stars as the film’s lead(Image: Publicity Picture)The film was released in October 2012 and received positive reviews from fans and critics alike. Over on Rotten Tomatoes a number of film critics have shared their thoughts on the Anna Kendrick fronted flick.One said: “It’s aimed at Glee fans and teenage girls, but the infectious energy will appeal to a wider audience,” while another wrote: “If it looks like the sort of film you’d like, you’ll probably love it. Even if it isn’t the sort of film you would normally watch, it’s good enough that you’ll likely still find much to enjoy.”Pitch Perfect was Rebel Wilson’s breakout role(Image: PA)Another had high praise, stating: “One of the best comedies ever made.” A second added: “Pitch Perfect combines the tuneful underdog triumphs of Glee with the sassiness of Bridesmaids to produce a sweet-sounding, wickedly funny movie.”A third wrote: “Silly, predictable but funny as hell with an infectiously catchy soundtrack, Pitch Perfect is a ray of cinematic sunshine.”Pitch Perfect 2 and 3 are also leaving Netflix(Image: UNIVERSAL PICTURES)The film has two sequels, Pitch Perfect 2 and Pitch Perfect 3, and there has been talk of another instalment. Rebel Wilson addressed the claims back in June and spoke to Today about the idea.She said: “I don’t know, I have a feeling it could shoot next year but we’ll see.”Join 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.

Sharon Osbourne is said to be struggling with a “heartbreaking” dilemma following the death of her husband, Black Sabbath frontman Ozzy Osbourne, who died on July 22Connor McCrory US News Producer and Carly Hacon Showbiz Reporter10:42, 06 Sep 2025Kelly, Ozzy and Sharon Osbourne(Image: AFP via Getty Images)Sharon Osbourne is wrestling with a heart-wrenching predicament following the passing of her husband, Black Sabbath’s Ozzy Osbourne, who succumbed to Parkinson’s disease on July 22.In accordance with Ozzy’s final wish, he was interred beneath a crabapple tree in the garden of their bucolic Buckinghamshire estate.In his 2009 autobiography I Am Ozzy, the singer, who performed his last gig at Villa Park, humorously quipped, “So the kids can make wine out of me and get p***** out of their heads.”He reiterated this request to Sharon multiple times, reportedly saying, “Don’t cremate me, whatever you do. I want to be put in the ground… with a tree planted over my head.”Sharon is torn over the dilemmaWhile his burial honoured this wish, it has left Sharon, aged 72, in a state of emotional turmoil, reports the Mirror US.With their three children, Aimee, Jack and Kelly, and five grandchildren all back in Los Angeles, Sharon finds herself grieving alone in the UK.A close family friend told the Daily Mail: “Sharon is heartbroken. She thought she would be caring for Ozzy longer in the UK. It’s where she saw her future. Now she’s a widow, lonely and grieving.”Their home, Welders House, had undergone extensive renovations to cater to Ozzy’s deteriorating health.Improvements included a rehabilitation wing, an exercise and art studio, enhanced security, and a spa-like wellness area.The family had planned to return to England in 2024 for a reality series titled Home to Roost, which would chronicle their transition.Ozzy’s health deteriorated rapidly, with the relocation occurring mere weeks prior to his death.Sharon is looking increasingly fragile(Image: Anadolu via Getty Images)The iconic rock legend passed away peacefully at his residence, shortly after a poignant reunion with his Black Sabbath colleagues Tony Iommi, Geezer Butler, and Bill Ward for a final show in Birmingham.His funeral service on July 30 featured a public cortege through the city streets followed by a private interment with close family and musician friends in attendance.Medical documentation lists his causes of death as cardiac arrest, myocardial infarction, coronary artery disease, and complications from Parkinson’s disease.Although Ozzy had been fighting illness following his 2019 Parkinson’s diagnosis, his passing still came as a shock.”She’s devastated,” revealed one close friend. “But she needs to be with the family who love her.”Article continues belowCompounding worries, pals say Sharon looks increasingly fragile. She had previously confessed to shedding more than three stone through using the slimming medication Ozempic.”She’s as thin as Kylie Minogue now,” confided an insider. “She really needs to eat.

A woman who claims to be Queen icon Freddie Mercury’s daughter, who goes by just ‘B’, has revealed why she cannot share her true identity, for a number of sad reasons10:00, 06 Sep 2025A new documentary which claims to share secrets of Freddie Mercury’s life airs on Sunday(Image: Getty Images)A bombshell new documentary about Freddie Mercury is set to air this weekend. The Queen icon’s life became a talking point again recently when a woman who claims to be his secret daughter came out of the shadows. Her story, and apparent secrets of Freddie’s life, are explored in new Channel 5 documentary Freddie Mercury: A Secret Daughter?, airing on Sunday night.In the documentary, journalist and biographer Lesley-Ann Jones speaks of meeting with the woman, who only goes by “B”. While friends of Freddie speak of their doubts that “B” is legitimate, Lesley-Ann believes she is who she says she is completely.”B” shared with her 17 journals which she claims Freddie wrote, starting after he discovered “B”‘s mother was pregnant in 1976, not long after Queen released Bohemian Rhapsody. Her mother is allegedly the wife of a good friend of Freddie’s. She says Freddie kept her a secret to protect her, as well as her family.The woman, “B”, claims to be Freddie Mercury’s secret daughter(Image: Getty)At the time, Freddie was engaged to Mary Austen, while having an affair with David Minns, who was putting pressure on him to end the engagement, the documentary claims. “B” says Freddie wrote of how he was close friends with a couple, and went to see the woman while the husband was away for “moral support”.According to “B”, her mother had recently suffered a miscarriage and found comfort in Freddie’s arms, leading to her conception.Lesley-Ann has a number of reasons to believe “B” and her story. She says “B” did not ask for any financial gain or fame from sharing her story.She also told the journalist of childhood friends of Freddie, which she says have never been revealed before.Lesley-Ann Jones says she believes ‘B’ is who she says she isBut another name appears which “B” claimed was the real name of Freddie’s father, who was previously only known as Bomi Bulsara. Lesley-Ann checked naturalisation records, which verified it was true.Lesley-Ann claims that Freddie’s parents knew of the existence of “B”, and a clause in his dad’s will appears to prove this. She says in the doc: “There is a clause that spells out which kind of grandchildren may inherit, and these are not an illegitimate child. An illegitimate may not inherit from him – why is that there?”On top of that, the writer met up with “B” and said she immediately saw the similarities between her and her would-be father.Friends of Freddie’s share their doubts, with some saying a child is not something he would have kept secret. There is also no mention of a child in his will, which is a matter of public record.”B” fears that revealing her identity would mean she would have to give up the notebooks she says Freddie gave her(Image: Getty Images)In his will, he left everything to Mary. On top of that, Queen’s back catalogue and creative output is owned by Sony Music.”B” claims it’s because of this that she cannot reveal her identity.She told the documentary makers: “A clause in Freddie’s will bequeaths Mary Austen all his possessions, including those that may be held by banks or other third parties at the date of his death.”He gave me his notebooks, but did not declare that he had done so in his will or any other official way.”She is fearful that if she revealed her identity, she would have to give up her most cherished possession of the past 34 years.”B” adds: “Mary can claim ownership of the physical notebooks, while Sony Music can claim ownership of their content.”Freddie Mercury: A Secret Daughter?, Saturday 6th September, 9:10pm.

Rebekah Vardy has moved to Italy with her family after husband Jamie signed for Serie A side Cremonese, and the WAG is said to be keen to make a ‘fresh start’02:58, 06 Sep 2025Rebekah Vardy is set for a new life in ItalyRebekah Vardy, the well-known WAG, reportedly views her family’s move to a historic Italian city as a chance to mingle with a new social set, according to insiders.The TV personality and her clan have relocated to Italy for a “fresh start”, following her husband Jamie, 38, signing a contract with Serie A team Cremonese. The move comes after Jamie’s lucrative deal with Leicester City came to an end, concluding his 13-year tenure with the Foxes, during which he clinched both the Premier League and FA Cup titles.It’s rumoured that Rebekah, 43, had been hoping for a touch more glitz and glamour with a transfer to another “really glitzy club”. However, Cremonese is a relatively unknown squad recently promoted to Italy’s premier league, believed to operate on a budget considerably smaller than Leicester City’s recent riches.Rebekah Vardy had hoped for a more glamorous transfer(Image: Getty Images)A source close to Rebekah shared: “Becky desperately wanted a glamorous big move to a really glitzy club. She had dreamed of Inter Miami, hanging out with Victoria Beckham would be like a dream for her… The Miami lifestyle – nightclubs, celebrities, parties – is way more her. Cremona, though, is all crumbling old buildings and culture.”Jamie was in high demand, with the star-studded Championship club Wrexham showing interest in the forward. This potential move could have given Rebekah the chance to rub shoulders with actress Blake Lively, whose husband Ryan Reynolds co-owns Wrexham, reports the Mirror.Birmingham City, owned by US superstar and former American footballer Tom Brady, were also reportedly keen on signing Jamie.Yet the seasoned striker accepted the Cremonese offer, and will now ply his trade in Cremona, renowned for its musical heritage as the home of Antonio Stradivari, the iconic Italian violin craftsman. It’s certainly a stark contrast to the energy and chaos of somewhere like Miami, though a switch to Inter Miami never materialised during the summer.The source went on: “Becky is used to the limelight, but nobody in Cremona will have the first idea who she is.”They revealed to the Daily Mail, which also claims both Rebekah and Jamie were desperately eager for “fresh starts” despite his achievements with Leicester City.And, thanks to this reputation plus his three-year England career, Cremonese fans have already christened their latest acquisition “the king”. Regional media outlets suggest Jamie will play a crucial role in Cremonese’s frantic fight against relegation this campaign.Article continues belowIt’s believed Rebekah should be able to blend in with the existing squad WAGs without much trouble, as most are fluent English speakers. The insider added: “Becky might have to rethink her style somewhat if she’s going to fit in with the Italian WAGs. They’re not about garish designer labels and sports gear… But most of them also speak fluent English so there’s a chance for her to mingle and make a whole new circle of friends if she can pull it off.” More

Police officers weren’t happy with the bloke for going into the road and gave him a scolding, asking him: “What are you playing at?”The man replied: “I was trying to get a video for my missus.” The officer, not having any of it, fumed: “By walking into the middle of the road and obstructing traffic?”The cop wasn’t happy with the fan for running into the road and scolded him for “obstructing traffic”(Image: Jam Press/@supercars.of.alderley.edge.yt)The man returned to the pavement with a grin on his face despite the warning. The clip went viral on Instagram, with people divided over who was in the wrong.Some insisted the fan “didn’t disrupt one bit of traffic,” but others cheekily tagged Kerry and joked she was “causing a nuisance.” It seems Kerry wasn’t too fussed as she herself liked the post.She bought the £200k car in 2022(Image: Jam Press/@supercars.of.alderley.edge.yt)Kerry splashed the cash on the brand-new £200k Lamborghini Urus V8 back in 2022. Just months after her Range Rover was stolen by thieves, she was seen running errands with her luxury car.Kerry’s Range Rover, was stolen in December 2021, with the I’m A Celeb winner realising her keys were missing during a shopping trip ahead of Christmas. She chased the thieves but didn’t catch them.”I chased them, good job I didn’t get them – they could’ve had a knife or anything,” she admitted during an Instagram Live at the time. “I feel violated. The kids are really shook up.”Kerry was declared bankrupt in 2008 and then again in 2013, but the reality TV star has completely turned things around thanks to her time on Only Fans. She said the platform has been “amazing” for her career”.She told The Sun: “It’s been amazing for my career, I haven’t stopped working. When I first did it I said to the kids ‘I’m going to do this, and I’m going to go topless – if anyone has any problems, let me know’She continued: “Our Lilly said she wasn’t happy about it, and I said ‘wait until the money comes in and see how you feel about it then.'”And once the money did start coming in they all had an iPad each and they had no problems! I’ve bought myself a Lamborghini Urus too, which comes in March.”Article continues belowHave you joined Threads?
