Raye praises 'amazing' Lola Young after technical glitch left her in tears
To view this video please enable JavaScript, and consider upgrading to a web browser that supports HTML5 video After shooting to fame last year with her hit single, Lola Young just made her Capital Summertime Ball debut – but it was a little, well, messy. The 24-year-old singer was all smiles as she walked on stage at Wembley Stadium in London, but was reduced to floods of tears backstage. Lola wasn't the only one having difficulties this year, as Jade went viral for claiming she was blocked from singing her new release. While the Little Mix star fought her battles off stage, Lola was left to face the music on stage – literally – as a technical fault derailed her short set. During her biggest track, Messy, her earpiece stopped working, forcing her to ask fans for help as she tried to claw back the performance. Now, the iconic Raye has shared some words of wisdom and praised the 'amazing' Lola for fighting through the 'impossible' situation. Commenting on a TikTok of the singer in tears, Raye explained: 'Sound travel[s] slowly, especially across a venue this big. 'Like a 3 second difference from it coming out of speakers to reaching the other side of the stadium, without in ears or a floor monitor, it is almost impossible to sing in time or pitch yourself !!' The seven-time Brit Award winner added: 'Lola you're doing amazing! So proud of you.' On Sunday, the 80,000 capacity venue watched as Lola, who is the niece of Gruffalo author Julia Donaldson, struggled to keep time during Messy. @bdjdksksm #summertimeball #lolayoung ♬ original sound – bdjdksksm 'Sorry guys, my ears are going in and out,' Lola explained before shouting for tech support and asking, 'Can I get some new ears?' The fault threw off her timing with the band but she was determined to continue, telling fans to 'sing along please'. It seemed the issue wasn't being resolved, with Lola declaring, 'It's like they're doing it on purpose' before walking off stage as the song ended. TikToker and gig-goer Bdjdksksm caught sight of her after the set, crying to her crew as they attempted to calm her down. Fans commented supportive messages across social media, including Charlie Puth, who wrote on Instagram: 'She's pitch perfect even without hearing herself that is impressive !!! She did a great job.' Host Sian Welby said: 'An absolute professional 🙌🙌🙌 nothing but respect for that performance ❤️.' Capital's official Instagram page shared a clip of the error, with the caption: '@lolayounggg gave it EVERYTHING like a true professional.' She wasn't alone in technical faults, though, as Zara Larsson's microphone cut out while on stage as well as a 20-minute delay in the live stream. More Trending This is also the second time Lola has been plagued with issues at a festival as she was forced to run off stage after feeling like she was going to vomit while performing at Coachella. Explaining what happened, she wrote: 'i was nervous guys and it was 40 bloody degrees. Im back today, same time, same tent love ya x.' As with any live production, things can go wrong but Zara and Lola proved the show must – and can – go on. Hopefully, Lola's Glastonbury debut later this month goes off without a hitch. Got a story?

US pop star spotted in Celtic tracksuit top at glitzy red carpet ceremony as wild fans say ‘want my season ticket?'
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) FANS have been left shocked after seeing a huge US pop star turn up on the red carpet wearing a CELTIC tracksuit top. The Capital Summertime Ball, hosted by Capital FM, saw a number of high profile artists descend on Wembley Stadium in London last night including Mariah Carey, Will Smith, Myles Smith, Busted and McFly. Sign up for the Celtic newsletter Sign up 7 Renee Rapp was one of the stars of the Capital Summertime Ball Credit: The Mega Agency 7 And her red carpet outfit had Celtic fans in a spin Credit: Getty 7 She was seen sporting a retro Hoops jacket, with the badge on the chest Credit: Splash 7 The club crest also appears on the sleeve Credit: Getty Among them was Renee Rapp, the 25-year-old singer-songwriter, famed for the hit singles Not My Fault, Snow Angel and the recently-released Leave Me Alone. Rapp has had a breakout 12 months as she branched into film, playing the part of Regina George in the 2024 musical adaption of Mean Girls. She played the same role on Broadway as a replacement for Taylor Louderman and won new fans with an appearance on Saturday Night Live. Rapp performed several of her favourite songs to the 80,000 strong audience at Wembley wearing a pair of black hot pants, a ripped white t-shirt and leather jacket, plus a pair of heeled boots. Before that outfit change however, she stunned fans by rocking up to the red carpet in CELTIC gear. Rapp sported a green zip-up jacket with a Celtic badge on the chest and the sleeve, with yellow and white lines on the sleeve and collar. The garment looks to be a retro piece from Celtic's days sponsored by Nike. Indeed, a version of the top is going on eBay for £62 at the moment - and it's perhaps no coincidence that it's sold out on second-hand retailer GPS Vintage. She paired the vintage jacket with a grey plaid midi skirt and black knee high boots, with a black handbag and sunglasses for good measure. As images dropped from the red carpet and clips began to circulate of Rapp taking part in interviews wearing the garment, fans rushed to share their excitement. The diggers move in as Celtic Park pitch is dug up One ecstatic fan wrote: "RENEE IN A CELTIC TOP MY NEW PERSONALITY." Another said: "Just saw Renee Rapp in a Celtic jacket, MON THE HOOPS, love her." "Renee Rapp wearing a Celtic jacket today oh she is so real for that," said another. While this fan said: "As if I couldn't be any more in love with her." One astounded Hoops supporter exclaimed: "This is literally life changing @reneerapp lmk if you want a loan of my season ticket." Before this fan commented: "Renee Rapp in a Celtic top is not what I expected to see today." Rapp herself gave a slight suggestion into why she was wearing the jacket - and whether she is a Celtic fan... (she has been spotted at Boston Celtics basketball games before). In an interview with ITN, she confessed to having no knowledge of what tartan is after being quizzed about her plaid skirt. After the reporter noticed the Celtic badge, they said Rapp looked "very Scottish" and could be considered "an honorary Scot". To which she replied: "Yeah, this is all my grandfather... he made this." 7 Rapp seemed unaware of the potential impact of her outfit Credit: ITN 7 She explained that her grandfather had something to do with it Credit: ITN 7 She showed off the badge to a stunned Scots reporter on the red carpet Credit: ITN Keep up to date with ALL the latest news and transfers at the Scottish Sun football page
