Celebrities At New Look Wireless: Here’s Which VIPs To Look Out For Backstage At The Festival

Okay, so we already know this year’s New Look Wireless Festival has a line-up that’s a thousand times better than your average Mr Whippy, but what do you do when you fancy a five minute break away from watching all the music, eh?

Well, providing you actually WANT a break from the music (we don’t blame you if you don’t), how about playing a quick game of I Spy: Celebrities At New Look Wireless Festival Edition.

We’re working on the title, alright?

Yep, it’s pretty obviously that a whole bunch of celeb-types will be heading to London’s Finsbury Park to check out all the festival has to offer this weekend, both backstage and with us average Joes.

To help with your game of ‘Guess Who?’ we thought we’d put our thinking caps on and ponder which celebs might be donning their wellies and doing some awkward festival dancing.

Celebrity BFFs, Boyfriends and Girlfriends

It wouldn’t be a festival without the line-up bringing their best friends, boyfriends and girlfriends to form one heck of an entourage, so we have no doubt there’ll be a shedload of celeb bezzies hanging backstage.

With Nicki Minaj recently hinting that she’s back with Meek Mill, we’re hoping that he might pop up to support her big gig. Kendrick Lamar seems to have struck one heck of a friendship with Taylor Swift, and since she’s not due back in Canada until July 6th, we’d LOVE to see her hanging about on the Saturday.

Kendall Jenner, Gigi Hadid, Lewis Hamilton and Joe Jonas all attended Drake’s Wireless 10 after-party at the weekend, so could they make a return appearance to watch him on Friday? (PLEASE SAY YES).

Tori Kelly recently did a duet with Ed Sheeran (which is epic, by the way), and since his US tour finishes on the 3rd, we’d love to see him soaking up the sun on the Sunday. Tori is also good friends with Professor Green, so we’re hoping to spot him and Millie Mackintosh enjoying the festival vibes.

Nicki Minaj is also said to be good friends with Beyoncé, so we’re keeping just about everything crossed that we spot her battling through any mud in a pair of Primark wellies and muddy pac-a-mac.

Well, we can dream, right?

Both Avicii and David Guetta have got enough collaborators under their belts to start their own festival, so keep your eyes, ears and oranges peeled for any of those strutting their stuff around the park. Think Emeli Sande, Sia, Rihanna etc.

New Look Wireless Regulars

Laura Whitmore, Jameela Jamil, Daisy Lowe, Jourdan Dunn and The Saturdays and Cara Delevingne have all visited New Look Wireless before, so of course, we’re hoping to see these lovely ladies enjoying Finsbury Park again.

YouTubers are also festival regulars, and while Caspar Lee, Joe Sugg and Oli White are currently in Thailand, Jim Chapman and Tanya Burr have been enjoying what Wimbledon has to offer, so we’re keeping our fingers crossed that we’ll spot them dancing away to David Guetta.

Anyone else I should keep my eyes peeled for?

ANYONE, really. We jest. One Direction have got a bit of time off before their next US tour date, and with Niall Horan having ventured to Wimbledon to watch some flying balls, we’d like to think we’ll be seeing him munching on a ketchup-covered hot dog in the sunshine.

If, by some miracle, Swifty does rock up, we’d hope she’d bring her epic Hyde Park entourage with her (Karlie Kloss, Martha Hunt, etc etc), because #SquadGoals.

Tinie Tempah is in London tomorrow, and having scored a number one with his Jess Glynne duet, we’re hoping to spot him by the burger stand. Oh, and we’d kinda love to see the Little Mix girls hanging out too.
