Matty Healy, the frontman of rock band The 1975, has received praise from Denise Welch after his performance on Friday night at Glastonbury, which divided fans.

Denise Welch – mum of The 1975’s Matty Healy – has heaped praise on her son after his Glastonbury Festival headline set on the Pyramid Stage proved divisive amongst fans.

The 36-year-old rocker, who hit the headlines in 2023 for his brief romance with Taylor Swift and is believed to have influenced her latest album The Tortured Poets Department, was branded ‘insufferable’ by some fans. While others left after being heard saying it ‘wasn’t their vibe’.

Matty opening the band’s set with a pint of Guinness he didn’t seem to drink, and a cigarette on the other hand, was the first thing they objected to.

Then he went on a rant, saying to the audience, “This moment is making me realize that – yeah. I’d say it. I’m probably the best songwriter of my generation.” I’m realizing this at this point. I’m probably the best songwriter of my generation, and that’s why I’m probably the best. I’m a poet, ladies and gentlemen. In a joke to his ex-girlfriend Taylor Swift, he said, “I believed in this poetry for you.

Some fans, however, weren’t there for it, with one user stating on social media that it’s “very easy to imagine” that Matty Healy’s stage presence would genuinely sashay into Gregg’s reciting 14th century French poetry.

The most obnoxious thing I’ve ever witnessed is Matty Healy swaggering around with a pint he doesn’t intend to drink.

While a third claimed that “Shoulde have been about the #1975, but Healy has chosen to hijack it and perform in a car crash performance.” The bands’ faces reflect it clearly. He only needed to hold it together for a day, which was a blatant failure.

In a video shared by his Loose Women star mum Denise – who watched her son’s performance from the crowd and posed for snaps with various celebs backstage – Matty appeared to look emotional at one point and was given hugs by his band members and entourage.

Posting the clip to her Instagram stories, 67-year-old Denise called The 1975’s performance a ‘1000/10’ and said it was an ‘unbelievable night’.

Denise, who shares Matty with ex-husband Tim Healy, was at the gig with her current partner, Matty’s stepdad Lincoln Townley. But the former Coronation Street star has ruled out camping and is staying off site in what looks like a glamping set up with a hot tub.

She told the Mirror she had been “stressing out” ahead of her son’s appearance and said: “I’ve not really been a festival bunny – I don’t really do festivals.

Coachella is the only place I’ve been. It was all very lovely and VIP. I sat there and said, “Oh, this is okay,” and it was sunny and gorgeous. No one stays there, and everyone departs at night. Glastonbury is stressing me out.

She continued, “I won’t stay for the entire three days.” I prefer to simply swivel in and out. I might return for Rod Stewart’s performance on Sunday night.

After Mel Owens, the show’s star, revealed his dating preferences, Chrishell Stause took to Instagram to express her thoughts on the upcoming season of The Golden Bachelor.

Selling Sunset’s Chrishell Stause has hit back at the Golden Bachelor after he expressed a preference for women under 60 without ‘artificial hips.’ The 43 year old reality star didn’t hold back in expressing her thoughts on 66 year old Mel Owens’ criteria for his ideal woman.

“We love the Golden Bachelor because of how wholesome it is,” the Selling Sunset star penned in her Instagram Stories on Thursday, adding, “This type of energy will ruin it.”

The drama unfolded when Owens, a former NFL player, discussed the casting process for the women who would compete for his heart on the MGoBlue podcast released on June 4.

In a tale recounted on the episode, the ex-linebacker shared the story that ruffled Stause’s feathers. During a meeting with The Bachelor producers, Owens disclosed: “They ask me, ‘What’s your preference?’ So I just said [ages] 45 to 60, just being honest,” he admitted.

However, he resisted saying, “You know, I’m cutting them if they’re 60 or older, I’m cutting them,” while dining with the show’s executive producer.

You can’t use the word cut, Owens recalls being reminded of the title of the show, The Golden Bachelor.

He responded, “Well, that’s an NFL term, I go.” Then he described his additional expectations for the women. Try to avoid the artificial wigs and hips, you know what that’s all about, right?

Stause isn’t the only person who expresses her disapproval. Fans of the franchise have weighed in on his statements from a large number.

I won’t be watching or supporting his podcast interview. Stop supporting men who believe they are so great that they won’t date women their own age. One fan wrote, “This bloke needs to go back home.” Another remarked, “I’m done with this franchise if you move forward with him.” Respect women in particular.

This is so depressing, a third person said. I find it unbelievable that TPTB had the knowledge that this man didn’t want a golden lady in the first place. No wigs or women over the age of 60 is so misogynistic. Please replace him with someone who values women of a certain age, which is the entire purpose of this show.

Nicole Young, Chrishell’s cast mate, and she spilled a number of filming secrets to the Mirror, including her feud with Chrishell, are well-known for their roles in Netflix’s Selling Sunset.

Nicole, 39, first appeared on the reality series in 2022, joining in season six. Since then, fans have watched as she has sold some of the hottest properties in California. But it’s been her ongoing feud with fellow realtor Chrishell Stause that has had viewers invested.

Now, in an exclusive chat with the Mirror, Nicole has spilled the tea on what goes on behind the scenes and explained her view of what happened between her and her co-star. Nicole claimed the cast have “zero control” over what they film, or who they film with. She told us: “We have zero control over what we film, who we film with, or what topics of discussion are ‘needed’ by production for each filmed scene.

“Unfortunately, the public holds us accountable for what is and isn’t filmed or shown,” the public said, “but we have never had any control over that.”

She continued to make the claim that Chrishell, who plays a snarling wolf in real life, is “incredibly astute at manipulating people and portraying herself as a perpetual victim.”

The most recent conflict between her and I that occurs in season 9 is the result of me finally returning to her constant and unsubstantiated jabs and accusations while examining the deeply held real source of her issues.

Former Top Gear host and Farmer Jeremy Clarkson has written about his farm journey and is now sharing his thoughts on his pub business.

After struggling with his pub business, Jeremy Clarkson claims to be “done.” The TV personality has stated that he won’t be entering any more ventures because he lacks understanding of the company that runs it.

The Grand Tour star took on the new business venture in July 2024 when he bought the pub in Asthall. He decided to take on the challenge after being successful with his 1000-acre Diddly Squat farm and accompanying shop.

In Clarkson’s Farm’s most recent episode, Jeremy mentions the pub’s purchase, but he says he won’t do it again. The Farmer’s Dog is a popular destination for tourists from all over the country, with many taking to social media to post reviews.

Jeremy said in an interview with The Times, “I’m done with business now.” As long as I live, I won’t start another business. I’m not driven by money, and I don’t understand it. Just a good craic, please.

The former Top Gear host has revealed the funny rationale behind his series name change and has been showing his relationship to his pub landlord.

In the fourth episode, Jeremy is seen reading through paperwork regarding the purchase of the pub, where he discovers that people who enjoy having sex in public places frequently stop by the area.

The council has designated the pub’s garden area as a “picnic area,” according to Jeremy. Clarkson then called his attorney to explain the situation, and Clarkson was informed that some “unwanted and anti-social behavior” that “might turn you off eating your picnic” had previously been reported at the site.

The attorney remarked, “We have come across some quite interesting photographs that show some particular graffiti and activity.”

Clarkson then visited the area himself and found that it was still going on as he found underwear thrown in trees. He first talked about the dogging rumours when he shared a post to his Instagram page.

He held up a stick with a pair of black and pink knickers hanging off the end while standing outside the pub. He remarked, “Tell me you bought a pub on a dogging site without telling me you did.”

Who Would Like to Win Million Dollars? Presenter was also recently rushed to a hospital because of a serious health issue. After discovering that one artery was completely blocked, and another nearly, after waking up one morning feeling “clammy,” with chest tightness and strange sensations in his arm, he underwent surgery.

After his health scare, Jeremy has had to make some “horrific” lifestyle adjustments, including cutting out alcohol, eating healthier, and exercising. This means he is “not allowed to have fun anymore.”

The couple’s children, according to Kaitlin Olson and Rob McElhenney’s wife, are against changing the name.

Rob McElhenney, co-owner of Wrexham FC, has filed legal documents to change his name.

According to documents filed in Los Angeles, the It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia star, whose character is referred to as Mac, wants to be known by the real name Rob Mac. His full name of Robert McElhenney III is a far cry from his abbreviated versions of his first and last names.

He first mentioned his intention to change his name in an interview with US outlet Variety in May, telling them: “As our business and our storytelling is expanding into other regions of the world and other languages in which my name is even harder to pronounce, I’m just going by Rob Mac.

Kaitlin Olson, McElhenney’s wife, and her co-star on It’s Sunny in Philadelphia, have said the couple’s children are against the change and that she is also concerned about it. The children are really unhappy about it because of that last name, she said. And I legally do as well! “.

He co-founded the private company “More Better Industries” in 2024, and Mac’s Tavern, a bar in Philadelphia, announced Monday that it was closing after 15 years in business.

McElhenney, 48, and fellow Hollywood actor Ryan Reynolds, 48, bought Wrexham football club in 2021. They have since been credited with a 50 per cent surge in visitors to the Welsh city after charting the club’s rise to the Championship on Disney+ series Welcome to Wrexham.

The show is a big hit in the US, where last month alone more than 300,000 people searched for Wrexham content on internet site Reddit.
