The Beatles biopic stars reunite for wild night at Charlie XCX Lido Festival
The Beatles' Paul and John have reunited….at Charli xcx.
Paul Mescal and Harris Dickinson - playing McCartney and Lennon in the hotly-anticipated new Beatles movie - partied together as they watched the Brat singer at Lido Festival, in east London.
Paul - wearing a bucket hat and Adidas tracksuit top - was drinking and moshing with Harris, who is playing his bandmate in the Sam Mendes -directed biopic.
They arrived together and were also seen side of stage in The Club tent, for singer Rose Gray, who is Harris' other half. Later they were seen dancing 'energetically'in the VIP pit to Charlie's electric set.
Says a source: 'It looked like the two were bonding ahead of the film, and maybe even swotting up on tips for their roles as they hung out backstage at various points during the afternoon.'

Also at the event was Lewis Capaldi who has been out of the spotlight for a while, as well as newly-single Lily Allen.
Says our mole: 'Lewis Capaldi was having a great time, hanging with friends, singing along, bringing the chips over for everyone and always lovely with fans too.'
Actor Paul - sadly not wearing his ubiquitous festival shorts although there is hope they will be on display next week at Glastonbury - was similarly happy to pose for pics with punters as he stood in the queue for a £14 duck wrap.
Our insider added: 'He may be a Hollywood star now….but he is happy to mingle with festival goers and try and keep it real.'
As for the concert, Charli blew festival goers away with a 70minute set that also featured Amelia Dimoldenberg as the Apple girl, with the camera panning to her doing the famous dance.

Alice Cooper praises Ozzy Osbourne as rock-and-roll ‘lifer'
The 77-year-old US singer spoke about Osbourne at a launch event for the original Alice Cooper band's first album in more than 50 years, The Revenge Of Alice Cooper, at London's Union Chapel. He said: 'Ozzy was like us, he was a lifer, we call certain people in this business lifers, people who are going to do it until they can't any more. 'Pete Townshend, The Beatles and the (Rolling) Stones, those guys are still going because it's their life, it's not financial, it's because it's what we love doing, and Bob Dylan still does 150 shows a year. 'We got into this thing in high school with the attitude that we were going to do this until we couldn't do it any more. 'Ozzy finally came to the end of that, and he was a lifer, he would've gone on as long as he could go, and you've got to give him all the credit in the world, he was physically in not good shape, and he still did it.' Osbourne, who fronted Black Sabbath on classic tracks such as Paranoid, Iron Man and War Pigs, and also had a successful solo career, died on Tuesday 'surrounded by love', after he was diagnosed with Parkinson's disease in 2019. His death came just weeks after the singer, who is often cited as inventing heavy metal with Black Sabbath, performed his last gig with the band at Villa Park in their home city of Birmingham. Cooper added: 'The other day somebody asked me about it, and I said, 'well, a giant boulder has crashed, but rock will roll on'.' Speaking about his own band, the School's Out singer hinted that they could reunite on stage at his billed solo concert at London's The O2 on Friday. He teased: 'I don't know if you're going to be there tomorrow night, but you never know what's going to happen.' Cooper went on to say that the reunion album may not be the band's last. He added: 'Someone said to me the other day, 'you know on a one-off project like this', I said, 'woah woah, what do you mean on a one-off project? Who says this is a one-off project?'. 'We're having a really good time, we're really enjoying the process, and we've really enjoyed the reception for the record.' Forming as Alice Cooper in 1968, the band went on to release seven studio albums between 1969 and 1973, which featured tracks such as UK number one single School's Out, and top 10 hits such as Elected, Hello Hurray and No More Mr Nice Guy. After the band played their last show in 1974, singer Cooper, formerly named Vincent Furnier, took on the name for his solo work, which saw him move to a heavy metal sound as opposed to the original band's hard rock. The Revenge Of Alice Cooper is released on Friday.
