A NOUGHTIES pop icon has been revealed as a surprise last-minute Glastonbury act.
The hitmaker, famous for tracks including Dream Catch Me, has let slip his late addition to the Worthy Farm festival.
Newton Faulkner, 39, posted a graphic to his page on X showing his face and emblazoned with the words: "I am playing Glastonbury Festival 2024."
In his image caption he made a nod to his change of summer plans and put: " If you asked me last week if I was playing @glastonbury, I would have said sadly not.

"Your set time fits perfectly with my Saturday plans! See you there!"
Newton has performed four times at the festival.
His first stint on the Somerset stage was in 2007, with his latest being in 2011.
