Singer-songwriter takes to the stage at TRNSMT festival - but can you guess who her major Hollywood star brother is?
An Irish singer wowed crowds in Glasgow on Sunday with her performance on the BBC Introducing stage at TRNSMT festival, but can you guess which Hollywood icon she's related to? Nell Mescal, 22, is the sister of Gladiator and Normal People star Paul Mescal, 29, and she proved that he is not the only talented member of the family at the event. She performed a set including her unreleased track Carried Away and to her delight the audience sang back the lyrics after she teased the track on TikTok. Nell later wrote on social media: 'I'm [actually] still beaming from ear to ear thank u [Transmit]. I will think about u for a long long time.' The Irish artist said her musical influences include the likes of Phoebe Bridgers, Frank Ocean, and Bon Iver. She has been a rising star since moving to London in 2021, where her brother Paul also lives, to seriously pursue singing and songwriting. Nell said: 'If I can write a song that makes someone feel something in any capacity or give them some kind of release, that was always my number one thing. 'I didn't want to write a song that someone just listened to and said "oh this is nice", I want them to actually feel something and sit there and think about it.' Also performing at the Glasgow festival was headliner Jade Thirlwall, who has found newfound success as a solo artist after rising to fame in Little Mix. She is now the first solo artist who was once a member of a girlband to receive a Brit Award - having won the Best Pop Act at the 2025 event. The star expressed her love of Scotland when she stepped onto the a stage in a racy tartan dress. She also admitted that she is a fan of both haggis and Irn Bru in a backstage social media post. Jade notably suffered a wardrobe malfunction when she performed on the main stage at Glasgow Green and had to stop her performance. Amused by the fail, she said: 'Oh my god it is hot. I know we've just got going, but if you don't mind I'm going to take myself stage right as my t**s are literally out. 'There's a great bit of areola on show right now.' Jade performed a set that consisted of her own songs as well as Little Mix classics like Shout Out To My Ex. She also covered Madonna's Frozen. Jade said: 'I'm so excited to be here in Glasgow. 'I haven't performed here for a few years. 'The last time I was here with Little Mix and it feels sometimes weird but very exciting and liberating to be here as a solo artist.' 'I'll give you everything I have.' The festival was a hit with Scottish audiences, who enjoyed some of music's biggest acts as the city basked in a heatwave of up to 30 degrees.

Gracie Abrams snogs and parties with boyfriend Paul Mescal until 3am after finishing Glastonbury set
GRACIE ABRAMS finished her set on The Other Stage then headed straight for her significant other – as she snogged and partied with boyfriend Paul Mescal until 3am. Gracie and Paul were joined by his singer sister Nell, as well as his Normal People co-star Daisy Edgar-Jones and her photographer boyfriend Ben Seed, at The Glade stage to take in a set by US DJ Seth Troxler. 4 4 4 An onlooker on Friday night said: ' Paul and Gracie were all over each other and couldn't resist a cheeky snog while their pals used the loos. 'Gracie was still full of energy despite playing on The Other Stage just hours before. 'The group were clearly still on a high from her magical performance as the sun set over Worthy Farm.' Paul earned boyfriend points as he got in among the crowd to watch Gracie's set – alongside his fellow Irish actor Andrew Scott, Daisy and Nell. At one point, Daisy was up on Ben's shoulders showing her appreciation for the music. A source said: 'Paul is so proud of Gracie and loved being with their friends as she saw her dream of performing at Glasto come true.' Gracie sang hits including That's So True, Close To You and I Love You, I'm Sorry. But although Paul is now a Hollywood actor and his girlfriend a chart-topping artist, he was overheard telling pals he is a normal person and was camping in just a regular tent like the rest of us. Glad to hear that, Paul. Paul Mescal makes the most of the heatwave with girlfriend Gracie Abrams as they enjoy a picnic at a London park 4

Yes, Paul Mescal can sing in ‘The History of Sound'
CANNES, France — If you are not perpetually online, you may have missed a TikTok titled, 'Paul Mescal Having Pipes for a Minute Straight.' Ardent fans already know that Mescal — jovial Irish lad IRL and incredibly talented sad boy from 'Normal People,' 'All of Us Strangers' and 'Aftersun' — can sing. They've circulated 2012 clips of him playing Javert in 'Les Misérables' and the titular role in 'Phantom of the Opera,' both from when he was 16 and in high school. Occasionally, the actor, 29, has posted videos of himself playing piano and singing at home, including a lovely, impressive duet of 'Nothing Arrived' by Irish indie folk group Villagers alongside Mescal's sister, Nell.
