Lewis Capaldi sends emotional message to fans at Noah Kahan concert
Lewis Capaldi sent a tear-jerking message to fans at Noah Kahan's gig in Hyde Park last night. The Scottish star, 28, who brought the house down singing Northern Attitude with Kahan - who has been vocal about his own mental health journey - is now back where he belongs after taking a break from the spotlight following a difficult few years.
Following his glittering return to Glastonbury last week after taking time out to focus on his mental health and 'adjust' to his Tourette's diagnosis after he was left unable to finish his set back at Worthy Farm in 2023, Lewis told fans - who had no idea he would be performing at BST - he was glad to be back.

The singer, who ran onto the stage in darkness before joining Kahan in the second verse of their song, told fans of his new track, Survive: "Survive is this week's UK Number One, and I want to say a massive thank you to everybody who's been streaming it, downloading it - it really means the world."
Thanking the audience for their "outpouring of love", he continued: "I've been away for a little while and to come back to this outpouring of love and support has been absolutely incredible.
"I can't thank everybody enough for all the kind words since Glastonbury - and now this! It's been the best week of my life. I hope you continue to enjoy the song, it means a lot to me."
After bringing fans to tears at Glastonbury last week, Lewis has shifted a whopping 68,500 Survive records in its first week, including more than four million streams, surpassing the much-loved singer's previous best of 56,000 with the 2022 song Forget Me.
The musician, who has spoken openly about having been diagnosed with Tourette syndrome, heartbreakingly had to pull out of Glastonbury two years ago as he told fans: "I'm still learning to adjust to the impact of my Tourette's and on Saturday it became obvious that I need to spend much more time getting my mental and physical health in order."

Lewis issued an update later that year in which he said: "I'm currently taking some time off to focus on my health and wellbeing and it's been going great!"
Following his epic comeback last week, it has now been announced that Lewis will embark on a UK and Ireland tour later this year.
The news was shared on June 30 and it's been revealed that the star will perform ten shows in cities including Manchester and Glasgow.
The new tour, which will be Lewis' first headline tour in more than two years, will kick off in Sheffield on September 7 and is scheduled to conclude in Dublin on September 29.
The Hold Me While You Wait star will visit a host of other cities in between those two dates, including two nights at the O2 in London. He will also visit venues in Aberdeen, Glasgow, Manchester, Birmingham, Nottingham and Cardiff. READ MORE: Kickers' 'durable' Back to School shoe range that 'last all year'

Strictly bosses 'make huge casting decision to avoid upsetting Queen Camilla'
Strictly bosses 'make huge casting decision to avoid upsetting Queen Camilla' Strictly Come Dancing bosses have reportedly vetoed one star from joining the show. Queen Camilla is a huge fan of Strictly Come Dancing (Image: POOL/AFP via Getty Images ) Strictly Come Dancing bosses have reportedly ruled out Paul Burrell for the dance floor, amid concerns about ruffling feathers at Buckingham Palace. Sources have suggested that the former Royal butler has been considered as a potential star in past series. However, show bosses are said to be anxious about how his participation might be received by the Palace and have consequently shelved the idea. A source told The Mirror: "They know how much Queen Camilla loves the show and would love for her to appear in the they fear that Paul's involvement would scupper that relationship." Despite denying claims of profiting from his ties with the late Princess Diana, Burrell's potential casting could clash with the BBC programme's established rapport with the royals.

She once revealed to Strictly pro Johannes Radebe that "we all watch it". Tess Daly's spouse Vernon Kay has also spoken about the genuine bond formed between his wife and the Queen, who is apparently eager for insider details on the show, reports the Mirror. He remarked: "Camilla and Tess have a real friendship through it now. They don't text, but we have mutual friends and messages come through. Paul has appeared on several ITV programmes including I'm A Celebrity (Image: ITV ) "When they see each other, the Queen is always asking: 'Who is your favourite?' She wants to know the backstage gossip. "It's crazy to think of the King and Queen sat on the sofa with a brew watching your wife present Strictly." Camilla further embraced the spirit of Strictly by throwing a palace tea party for the show, where she twirled around with former pro Brendan Cole, and even recorded a special video message for the 2020 final, won by the duo Bill Bailey and Oti Mabuse. Many pointed to the fact that Strictly hosts Claudia Winkleman and Tess were this month recognised in the King's Birthday Honours, having co-hosted the series since 2014.

Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) IT'S one of the hottest tickets in town - a day out at the All England Club. And Scotland and Napoli star Scott McTominay is determined to make the most of his downtime since clinching the Serie A title. 2 Centre Court in all its splendour Credit: The Times 2 Scott McTominay and his mum travel to Wimbledon Credit: Instagram/Scott McTominay The recent Scudetto winner looked the part as he posed with his mum Julie in the back of a car which was taking them to SW19. Sharing the image on Instagram, he wrote: "Tennis with Mum". Since being allowed to leave Man Utd, McTominay has turned his career around, being named the most valuable player in Serie A this season. He's also been rated in the top five most influential players in his position in world football. That's according to the latest CIES Football Observatory report, which monitors 60 leagues around the world. There's major Scottish interest in this afternoon's events on the most famous lawns in world tennis, with Cam Norrie doing battle against defending champion Carlos Alcaraz on Centre Court. Wimbledon is a popular spot for footballers - with Rangers hero Graeme Souness spotted in the Royal Box with his wife Karen on Saturday. Norrie too has a major football connection in the family - with his Glaswegian dad David a massive fan of the Ibrox men. Norrie was present, along with the likes of Andy Murray, when the Great Britain Davis Cup team took time out to visit Ibrox for a match. During his brilliant run at Wimbledon in 2022, Rangers publicly invited Norrie to a game at Ibrox along with his dad. Fresh Wimbledon controversy as new technology fails again after randomly calling in the middle of point as star broken Norrie replied: "Love if, definitely be up for it." He also revealed that his "diehard" Gers fan dad tried to ensure he followed in his footsteps. Norrie recalled: "When I was young, he was like, 'you have to support Rangers, you have to wear blue the majority of the time'." Norrie has, however, revealed he's a Newcastle United fan.

A poem and a mistake - freaky Friday meets the classics at Fringe
A desk, a chair, a microphone and one female body. US playwright Cheri Magid is set to take audiences at The Edinburgh Fringe on a magical rollercoaster ride of transformation gender, sexuality, and desire, with the UK premiere of her critically-acclaimed play, A Poem and a Mistake.

Directed by respected Mexican-American theatre, television, and film director Michelle Bossy and performed by award-winning actor Sarah Baskin, A Poem and a Mistake blasts into the Scottish capital this Summer for a run at The Assembly Rooms from July 31 to August 24. This whiplash black comedy tells the story of Myrrha, an eager grad student, as she challenges her professor about the fifty sexual assaults in Ovid's Metamorphoses. When he profoundly misunderstands her, their physical altercation suddenly transforms him into a version of Myrrha and plunges him into the stories themselves. Immersed in an Ovidian landscape, the two face a magical and terrifying confrontation with their own gender, sexuality, and desire. Advertisement Hide Ad Advertisement Hide Ad Sarah Baskin dynamically morphs into gods, goddesses, boyfriends, girlfriends, tricksters and fiends, transporting the audience from a classroom to the mythic realm and everywhere in between. Freaky Friday meets the classics in this whiplash black comedy that cuts to the duality in all of us: aggressor and victim, teacher and student, god and mortal. A Poem and a Mistake Writer Cheri Magid says: 'It's head-spinning to think that the second most adapted book in Western literature has all these assaults in it that have been translated out and made consensual. It's enough to make you swear off romcoms altogether. But Sarah and I both felt that the best way to upend patriarchal story tropes was with pratfalls, Bugs Bunny-like chase scenes and karaoke. And the audience reactions so far have shown us that they are there to laugh as much as to think and feel.' Cheri Magid writes for theatre, television, film and opera. Her plays have been seen in New York at Primary Stages, New Georges, The New Group, The Women's Project and Rattlestick, regionally in the US at South Coast Rep, People's Light and Theatre Company, The Road Theatre Company and Cincinnati Playhouse among others, and internationally at Austrailan Center for Contemporary Art in Melbourne and the Museum of Asian Art in Corfu, Greece. She also wrote on the Emmy award-winning children's show Arthur and is an Associate Arts Professor of Dramatic Writing at NYU Tisch. Sarah Baskin is an award-winning actor and filmmaker from Montreal, now based in NYC. Recent screen work includes A Family Affair (Netflix, opp. Zac Efron), Ramy, Gossip Girl (HBO), The Equalizer (opp. Queen Latifah), and indie films screened at Sundance, Cannes, TIFF, Telluride, and NYFF.
