PALOMA FAITH may be one of the biggest home-grown stars in the UK but I’m happy to report she remains loyal to her fans.
She plays the Pyramid Stage on Sunday then plans to stay on at the festival and, rather than live it up in the VIP areas and bars, get out among the 250,000-strong crowd expected to attend.
In an exclusive chat ahead of her show, the How To Leave A Man singer says: “It is weird – when I am in the VIP area I get hassled left right and centre.
“Everyone in there feels entitled but in the normal bit everyone leaves me alone and they just want to talk to me like a normal person.
“In the VIP area they are like, ‘We deserve this’, but they are not giving me the money that they spent on the ticket.”

I couldn’t have put it better myself, Paloma.
And while some Glasto acts head straight off site after their shows, Paloma says she will be sticking around to enjoy the music.
The star, who earlier this year brought out sixth album The Glorification Of Sadness, says: “I’ve not done Glastonbury in eight years and I feel so excited.
“I am almost going to combust.
“It is one of the absolute best memories of my career, playing at Glastonbury.
“I’m over-the-moon excited for it.
“This time I am going to try and stay.
“I didn’t get to last time, I was so rushed, but this time I am going to try.
“I really want to see SZA perform, I love her.”
Teasing what fans can expect from her slot, Paloma adds: “I will do some of the hits and a mix of the new album.

“I feel like the new album is really full to the brim of fun songs to play, and I’ve got a new person in my band who is an on-stage producer who is sending me videos of himself playing about with loops and stuff which makes it really exciting.
“I think it’s going to go off.”
We’ll be front and centre for your show, Paloma.
Go kill it!
