STEVIE NICKS and Harry Styles drank non-alcoholic beer and ate candy floss after their surprise duet at Hyde Park’s BST. The Fleetwood Mac singer put on a backstage spread packed with sweet treats, booze-free tipples and herbal tea for the ex-One Direction star. In the crowd watching Stevie’s headline set on Friday were Kate Moss and daughter Lila, Kirsten Dunst , Cara Delevingne , and fashion designer Stella McCartney.
Harry’s sister Gemma was also watching from the platform with singer- songwriter Kid Harpoon and Rob Stringer, CEO of Sony Music. Hazza sang Fleetwood Mac song Landslide with Stevie, along with Stop Draggin’ My Heart Around, which she recorded with the late Tom Petty. She played Tom’s song Free Fallin’ as images of the pair were projected on to the screen.
Stevie also paid tribute to her former bandmate Christine McVie on what would have been her 81st birthday. Christie died aged 79 in 2022, after a stroke as she battled cancer . Arm in arm with her stage guest, Stevie said: “I asked Harry to do this, and it’s always heavy to ask someone to come and sing this song with you — when you’re singing about your best friend that died so suddenly and so sadly.
“What I want you to know is that Christine was Harry’s girl and she was my girl, she was your girl. And she loved all of this. “And today was her birthday, so, it’s taken me all this time to try to deal with this situation.
” Stevie added: “Harry, I thank you, we thank you.” Stevie performed a two-hour set, belting out Fleetwood Mac favourites Dreams, Rhiannon and Gypsy before launching into her own songs Wild Heart and Bella Donna. While the former hellraiser splashed out on a backstage spread, everyone including Harry wore masks because of Covid and she was in bed by midnight.
An insider said: “Gone are the days of Stevie staying up all night partying. She went back to her hotel after the gig but enjoyed a non-alcoholic beer with Harry before she left. “She also had her favourite candy floss and lots of sweet treats for Harry and her band.
Everyone had to wear masks, including Harry, and that was strict protocol. “So there was no inviting anyone else like Kate backstage this time.” Stevie once described Harry as “the son I never had.
” Their friendship began when he personally delivered a carrot cake to her on her birthday after a Fleetwood Mac gig. Since then they have performed together at a string of concerts. When Stevie was inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame as a solo artist in 2019, Harry said in a tribute: “Whenever you hear her voice, life gets a little bit better.
” Harry didn’t speak on stage at Hyde Park, except for a nod to the Euros: “It’s coming home.” NO one does anthemic rock quite like The Killers – and they proved they still have the magic after 20 years at the top. I watched them perform on the final night of six sold-out shows at London’s 20,000 capacity O2.
And they showed no signs of running out of steam. Frontman Brandon Flowers was a perfect master of ceremonies, dressed in a red blazer as a nod to a ringmaster. He told the crowd: “Rock ’n’ roll, we’re a dying breed” and proceeded to prove he had plenty of life left in him.
The Las Vegas band based the theme of their Rebel Diamonds show on Sin City, which was a fun detail. They played their hits Somebody Told Me, Human and, of course, Mr Brightside, which they performed after the brilliant Ollie Watkins fired England into the Euros final in Germany. A first- class night.
RIHANNA has set the wheels in motion for her music comeback. We can reveal the singer has registered the title of a track called Lock & Key on the Performance Rights Organisation website, which is a secret database where songs are listed. The Fenty Beauty founder, who has two boys with rapper boyfriend A$AP Rocky , has been on a musical hiatus since the release of her eighth album, Anti, in 2016.
A source tells us: “She scrapped the material she worked on before Covid but Lock & Key keeps coming up in meetings. “So she is seriously considering using it as her comeback record. “She is in weekly meetings with Jay Brown, the former CEO of Roc Nation, to map out a comeback that doesn’t clash with the new Beyonce album.
” Rihanna’s return to music comes as British artists have failed to clinch the top spot in the UK charts in 28 weeks. Currently, American singer Sabrina Carpenter reigns at No1 in the singles charts with summer smash Espresso. It looks as if us Brits have got some tough competition .
. . IT is hard to believe Kim Kardashian , Jacob Rees-Mogg and Stacey Soloman have something in common.
But I can reveal TV sweetheart Stacey and hubby Joe Swash are also about to star in a fly-on-the-wall reality show with their combined brood of six kids. An insider said: “Stacey and Joe are such homebodies and love nothing more than spending time with their children. “The series is set to be a huge hit, given the chaos that comes with a big family.
“Stacey and Joe will also not hold back when it comes to showing the highs and lows of family life. “Fans can expect to see an unfiltered version of a busy household.” The Loose Women star, who also appears on BBC’s Sort Your Life Out, recently revealed she was adopting ducks for the pond at their £1.

She teased fans with a sneak preview of the 80,000 outdoor arena, which is being specially created for her Munich shows next month. Adele, who was in Germany to watch England in the Euros this week, will perform eight shows in the city. She said: “It’s all a bit bloody exciting.
” One follower added: “Queen of England and now Germany too.” PERRIE EDWARDS goes for gold as she performs her new solo single Tears. The Little Mix singer shined on BBC’s The One Show on Friday in a stylish waistcoat and matching flared trousers.
Perrie, whose debut single Forget About Us got to No10 earlier this year, recently revealed she gets the jitters ahead of performances. She said: “I do get really nervous – really badly. But I pretend I’m not nervous.
” Mum-of-one Perrie, who is engaged to former Arsenal and Liverpool footballer Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain , added of her nerves: “I know that once I’m on there, I love it so much that they kind of disappear.” ED SHEERAN is going back to the more heartfelt and emotional music he made in his early days. The 33-year-old told Sirius podcaster Theo Von: “There have been things in my life that have happened over the past two years.
“I think the music I’m making at the moment is more like the music I was making in my early twenties, when there was a lot of tension going on in my life.” The past few years have been tough for the Shape Of You hitmaker, who had depression after his wife was diagnosed with a tumour and struggled with the sudden death of his friend, the entrepreneur and DJ Jamal Edwards..
