Will Smith surprises Calvin Harris fans by introducing him at fest

He’s undeniably one of the nation’s top rock icons.

However, attendees at Scotland’s T In The Park music festival received an unexpected treat when Hollywood actor Will Smith made a surprise appearance. He stepped onto the stage to introduce the evening’s main performer, Calvin Harris, on Saturday night.

The renowned star of Men In Black graced the stage ahead of the DJ, addressing the massive audience gathered at Balado in Kinross-shire.

At the age of 45, Will announced to the excited crowd, ‘Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you – Scotland’s own, Calvin Harris.’

The 30-year-old – a firm favourite with the crowd – opened by playing Under Control.

Revellers danced in the rain as he played for more than an hour, before Will joined him back on stage for the final song shouting: ‘Scotland, I love you.’

The Men In Black star rocked a blue jean jacket with black leather sleeves over a black T-shirt, and black leather jeans.

And heeeere’s Calvin: The 45-year-old pointed as the Scottish singer-songwriter hit the stage

The set came after a performance from Paolo Nutini in which he saved his hit Last Request until the end, much to the delight of the audience.

Festival-goers earlier covered up in waterproof ponchos as heavy downpours descended while Pharrell Williams took to the main stage at the event, which has four stages.

The rain cleared up during his 60-minute set, which he closed with hit single Happy.

The Charlatans were welcomed back to the festival 18 years to the day they performed at the very first T In The Park in 1997.

Paul Weller, Jake Bugg, Kaiser Chiefs, Bastille and Franz Ferdinand are also included in the line-up bidding farewell to Balado.

The festival is moving to the Strathallan Castle estate in Perthshire next year.
