Margot Robbie gins up crowd at Glastonbury pool party
Margot Robbie was spotted hosting a pool party as she joined the revelers at the Glastonbury Festival in Britain this week.
It was held to promote her gin brand, Papa Salt, and comes just 10 months after she welcomed her first child, a baby boy.

Unlike most A-listers who opt to helicopter in and out of the Worthy Farm site in western England from their five-star hotels, Margot chose to stay with family friends in their farmhouse.
A source told DailyMail.com: 'Margot is a long running friend of the festival and she's chosen to stay with some girls she went to school with in Australia who live just off the site.'
She was later seen arriving at the festival grounds, beaming as she shared drinks with pals.
The Hollywood star is beloved for her down-to-earth lifestyle having lived in London's Clapham area as a budding actress and partying in the local nightclub, Infernos.
She joined forces with her producer husband, Tom Ackerly, and their three friends to create Papa Salt Coastal Gin, which is distilled using renewable energy in Byron Bay, Australia.
Speaking about the gin, Margot said: 'We made Papa Salt because we wanted an easy to drink gin to share with our friends.'

Glastonbury 2025 is set to be another star-studded affair with Rod Stewart, Olivia Rodrigo, Neil Young, The 1975, Nile Rodgers and Noah Kahan all in the line-up.
Lewis Capaldi is also rumored to be taking to the stage at Glastonbury for a secret set after releasing his new single, Survive.
The powerful track is the Scottish singer's first offering following a two-year career hiatus due to his battle with Tourette's.
There have been reports that Lewis' new song will coincide with his big stage return at Glastonbury, two years after he broke down on-stage at the festival.
Following his emotional set at Worthy Farm in June 2023, the singer, 28, took time off to focus on his mental health and to 'adjust to the impact' of his Tourette's diagnosis.
Yet earlier this month, it was revealed Lewis was set to return to the spotlight with a performance at this year's festival, in the 'secret slot' on Friday at the Pyramid Stage after Alanis Morissette.
And now it has been claimed the singer will release his first single since he dropped Strangers And A Cure For Minds Unwell in January last year, to coincide with his Glastonbury set.
During his last performance at Glastonbury two years ago, Lewis was coming out of a three-week mental health hiatus he had taken to 'rest and recover.'
Returning to the stage, the singer admitted he had been 's**t scared' to perform as he opened up about his mental health struggles and battle with Tourette's.
The neurological condition is characterized by a combination of involuntary noises and movements called tics, and can cause speech and voice abnormalities.
In the middle of his set, Lewis confessed that he was struggling with his Tourette's and said his voice had 'packed it in' after coughing throughout the show.
However, his supportive fans rallied around him, with the show coming to an heartwarming close as the supportive crowd sang out his hit Someone You Love at the top of their voices.
Lewis emotionally left the stage, saying: 'Glastonbury, I'm really sorry. I'm a bit annoyed with myself.'
Afterwards, he announced he would be 'taking a break for the foreseeable future' as it was 'obvious' he needs to spend 'much more time getting my mental and physical health in order.'
The hitmaker, who had been due to embark upon a world tour, explained he needed time to 'adjust to the impact' of living with Tourette's, admitting it was 'the most difficult [decision] of my life.'

Politics at Glastonbury a 'festival within a festival'
As Glastonbury Festival enters its final day, with performances from Rod Stewart and Olivia Rodrigo to look forward to, so too is its political programme. While the festival has changed beyond recognition from its free-flowing, flower power roots, it has tried to retain its political edge, which is unashamedly site is covered with messages about climate change, environmental activism, international aid and human rights. Speakers this year include Gary Lineker, Deborah Meaden and a hustings for the leadership hopefuls of the Green Michael Eavis reportedly told journalists this week that people who do not agree with the politics of the event "can go somewhere else". But what do those who are at the festival think of its ideas and values? Glastonbury: The 1975 deliver a polished, but safe headline slotIn pictures: Glastonbury Festival day threeWhy there will be no Glastonbury Festival in 2026'We want to give you best seat in house for Glasto' Stood in front of a huge CND (Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament) sign in the Green Futures part of the site, Noma said: "As someone who is active on the climate space, for me it's really inspiring being in this sort of area." It is here that the festival most retains its 1970s roots, with workshops, political talks and messages supporting environmental activism. "It's like a festival within a festival," Noma adds. "I think Glastonbury has a reputation for being a hippy festival," said her friend Samerine."But there's a lot of cool stuff around and loads of information and people are getting to learn things here." The festival has long championed environmental causes, and slogans about the climate crisis can be seen all around. It's also true however that today's Glastonbury attracts the mega-rich, some of whom arrive on political commentator and author Ash Sarkar, another speaker at the festival this year, this is a problem."When it comes to the helicopters and yurts, not only do I find that disturbing in terms of ostentatious displays of wealth, you're also missing the best part of being here," she said. "You've got thousands of people having a good time together, a collective experience. So if you want to avoid all that, not only are you a mug for spending that much money, you're not going to have a very good time." Speaking to BBC Politics West, former conservative MP Jacob Rees-Mogg, said he would not enjoy Glastonbury Festival, which he added "isn't my scene". "I'd rather go frankly to Glyndebourne," he what a festival for people right of the centre would look like, Rees-Mogg replied: "Oh, it would probably be mock battles from the civil war and little bit of jousting, that sort of thing." Back in Glastonbury, Chris, from Oxford, went to the first event at Worthy Farm, then called Pilton Pop, Folk and Blues Festival, held in 1970. "I was at Catholic boarding school. I bunked off and wandered around carrying my school uniform in my bag. It was completely free and anarchic," he said. "It completely changed my life. A lot of the stuff that was being talked about 10 years ago is now mainstream."People thought you couldn't run a stage on renewable power, now it's really quite easy to do."Whilst the music has diversified incredibly over the past 20 years, the politics here remains steadfastly left-wing."Should the festival though become more welcoming to those with other political views?"There's probably a few Tories here, a sprinkling of Reform," Chris said."But this is about positive joy, fun, progress and creating a better world. Quite a lot of that tends to align with the left."Ms Sarkar agrees. "You can't have everything for everyone," she said."If you want, you can set-up your own Reform music festival and I'm sure the ever entrepreneurial Nigel Farage has considered it." For Jason, from Manchester, and Rowan, from Leeds, who are both part of the LGBT (lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender) community, the idea of being amongst similarly minded people having a good time, is part of the point of the waiting to be served a cream tea, they said there are two different sides to the festival, "the intense and the really wholesome"."A lot of us and our friends are very friendly, welcoming, open-minded people," said Rowan. "It's not just like-minded people, it's acceptance. You can be who you want here and the way people dress or hold themselves is incredible."

Lewis Capaldi releases new music amid speculation of Glastonbury set
The 28-year-old last performed at Glastonbury in 2023 before taking a break citing anxiety and announced on New Year's Eve the same year that he planned to take a hiatus to focus on his health. He has released a new song titled Survive and alongside a video montage, with the song playing, he wrote on Instagram: 'It's been a while…'. Last month, he performed on stage for the first time in two years at a charity gig in Edinburgh to raise funds for suicide prevention. Capaldi, from Bathgate, West Lothian, has Tourette's Syndrome and released his first album in 2019, with a second album following in 2023. On New Year's Eve in 2023, Capaldi said in a lengthy Instagram post that he would 'continue taking some time to carry on looking after myself' following the announcement he would take a break from touring after struggling with his voice during his Glastonbury Festival set earlier in the year. Capaldi explored how the pressures of fame have affected him mentally and physically in the Netflix documentary Lewis Capaldi: How I'm Feeling Now which was released in April 2023. His critically-acclaimed 2019 debut album Divinely Uninspired To A Hellish Extent emerged as the biggest-selling UK album of both 2019 and 2020. His hit songs include 2019's Someone You Loved, 2020's Before You Go and 2022's Forget Me. This year's Glastonbury line-up features a number of acts listed as TBA, with a Friday slot on the Pyramid Stage at 4.55pm speculated as one Capaldi could perform in, but this has not been confirmed. Also among the music stars rumoured to be performing a secret set at Glastonbury is New Zealand singer Lorde, whose fourth studio album, Virgin, has just been released.

Orlando Bloom ‘won't try to win Katy Perry back' after ‘months of relationship issues' before split after nine years
ORLANDO Bloom "won't try to win fiancee" Katy Perry back after their nine-year relationship came to an end, according to reports. The claims comes as the Pirates of the Caribbean actor, 48, "made his debut as a single man" at Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez's A-List wedding of the year. 7 7 7 Orlando was seen embracing Keeping Up With The Kardashians alum Kim Kardashian, 44, at the three-day celebration. It came after he was caught "ogling" the Skims founder and Hulu Tv star in an image taken on a night out with popstar Katy, 40. For her part, the Roar hitmaker is said to have already told pals their relationship was as good as done. And now a source has suggested the Hollywood A-Listers, who share daughter Daisy, are on the same page and said: "They had broken up before and in the following years things could get tense and to a point where it was often make or break, and they would choose to make up. "But shortly after her Video Vanguard Award and performance in September, they started to disconnect more as she was getting ready to release music, go on tour and take the space flight. "After the holidays and into the New Year, it was just one little thing after another." They added to MailOnline: "He isn't going to try to get her back. "It's over and he has accepted it." The Sun has gone to reps for Katy and Orlando for comment. LETTING SLIP It has previously been claimed that Katy - who is on tour in Australia - had told her mates their engagement was over at the start of the year, before removing her engagement ring. The Kardashians are leading the world's A-listers flocking to Venice for Jeff Bezos and his bride Lauren Sanchez's ultra-rich wedding of the century A source close to the couple said at the time: 'Katy confided in friends at the start of the year that their relationship was as good as done. 'They decided to hold off on announcing anything in case things improved between them, because they are desperate to stay together for the sake of their daughter. "But they have spent barely any time together this year, with Katy on tour and Orlando working on his upcoming film Bucking Fastard in Dublin. 'She knew that taking off her engagement ring would send a clear message. 'It's been a hard year so far. They wanted to wait until the tour is over before they made their split official, although Katy has grown tired of the situation.' The couple started dating in 2016 and got engaged three years later. However, The Sun understands they had difficult conversations about their future over Christmas and in January but struggled to make a firm decision. Reps for the couple refused to comment when approached about their separation in February and again this week. ALL CHANGE Last week, The Sun reported how Orlando and Katy held crisis talks to try to save their relationship after leading increasingly separate lives. American news website TMZ then said Brit-born Orlando would be 'the life of the party' and that he would be hitting 'the dancefloor hard' when he arrives in Italy for the nuptials. An insider said: 'No one has decided it's definitely the end of the road for Katy and Orlando. 'They both love each other, but they have been living different lives for at least a year and in different mindsets.' It's understood Orlando and Katy are planning on reuniting on July 4 when there is a break in her touring schedule. The insider added: 'They have barely been together for a decent amount of time, without distractions, for many, many months.' Tensions within their relationship also reached boiling point after Katy's flight to space on board Jeff's Blue Origin. Katy, along with Lauren and Gayle King, were hit with a public backlash and those close to Orlando said he had warned Katy about taking part. They said: 'From day one, Orlando didn't think going on the Blue Origin mission was a good idea, and knew she would face a backlash.' 7 7 7
