    Festival fans were contending with muddy mayhem at Glastonbury today after yesterday's torrential downpours turned the 900-acre site into a quagmire.
    Every inch of Worthy Farm has become a mud bath as early arrivals gear up for the beginning of the main event tomorrow.
    Welly-clad music fans put on brave faces despite hundreds of tents flooding and treacherous conditions underfoot.

    Diving face down through Britain's biggest mudbath, teenage reveller Tom Wilder ensured the Glastonbury cheers started early.
    Egged on by his mates, 17-year-old student Tom, from Kent, performed headlong dives on demand to cheer up arrivals trudging through the sodden 900-acre site.
    ©Countless efforts left him caked in mud from head to toe, with dairy farm sludge stuck in the braces on his teeth.
    But he declared with a grin: 'If I run out of clothes, I'll just do it naked.'
    His dives received roars of approval from hundreds of onlookers along with the group of friends he was camping with.
    Best friend Callum Burgess, also 17, said: 'I'm supposed to share a tent with him but he can sleep outside. Look at the state of him.'
    Clouds cleared over the Pilton hills last night, but the rain returned this morning and is due for a reprise later today - the best weather is not expected until Sunday.

    More than half the ticket-holders for the sold out event will have squelched their way to the site by tonight.
    This year's event sees U2, Coldplay and Beyonce headline.

    But early arrivals' efforts to secure prize camping spots were confounded by yesterday's monsoon-like conditions.
    Hundreds of tents were flooded withing a few hours as torrential downpours began shortly after gates opened and fans began streaming in.
    Campers hauling their bags and beers along the slippery thoroughfares were even told to pitch tents on hills to escape the worst of the wet conditions.
    Marc Saunders, 31, from Bath, pitched his tent in driving rain with his five-year-old daughter Sam and wife Sarah.
    He said: 'We say it's "go hard or go home". We're thrilled to be here, the place is magical - even in the mud.'

    Another early arrival, 19-year-old James Street, from Belfast, was caked in mud from head to toe after slipping in a puddle.
    He said: 'I'm drenched, obviously. But it's great just to be here with my pals. Legendary place, legendary line-up.
    'We're not interested in the headliners - there's so much more to see.'
    The first of the main acts take to the Pyramid Stage tomorrow, when the wet weather is expected to return.
    Among a host of theatrical events at the site will be Glastonbury's own version of La Tomatina.
    Other new elements for this year include The Spirit of 71 stage, with acts that played at the festival 40 years ago.
    Beyonce, who fell in love with the Somerset festival after watching husband Jay-Z perform three years ago, is believed to have cleared her diary to party in Pilton over three days.
    Rapper Jay-Z is even money with bookmakers Ladbrokes to join his wife on stage this Sunday.

  • Now Lady Gaga 'gives birth' on stage: Outrageous singer releases gold liquid

    Now Lady Gaga 'gives birth' on stage: Outrageous singer releases gold liquid
    By MARCUS BARNES
    ©Another Gaga stunt: Lady Gaga donned a fake baby bump, rested her feet in stirrups and 'gave birth' to gold liquid as she sang hit Born This Way on Saturday Night Live
    She's covered herself with blood, emerged from an egg and danced around with a crucifix on her crotch.
    And now Lady Gaga can add giving birth to her growing list of outrageous stage show stunts.
    With a false belly attached to her midriff, the singer placed her legs in a pair of stirrups and proceeded to secrete gold liquid during a performance on U.S. show Saturday Night Live.
    ©Controversial: The singer is never one to shy away from outrageous stunts - this the latest in a long line of bizarre performances
    The 25-year-old singer began her performance by emerging from a pod, emblazoned with the name Beluga Gagaviar No1 - a reference to the famous, and very expensive, brand of caviar.
    Wearing a pair of PVC trousers and a cropped PVC blazer, which exposed her ultra-flat midriff, she launched into a typically energetic performance, singing all the vocals live as usual.
    Towards the end of the song her dancers surrounded her and, when she emerged from the scrum Gaga had acquired a huge bump.
    She immediately headed from a mock hospital bed to the side of the stage where her dancers helped into a pair of stirrups, and she subsequently 'gave birth' to a gold liquid.
    The performance was part of Saturday Night Live's closing show which was hosted by singer Justin Timberlake.
    ©Eccentric: Gaga's influence spread to the set of the show which was covered with gold and black stripes to match the outfits of her dancers and herself
    ©Plenty of bottle: Gaga joined in the fun throughout the show dressing up as a wine bottle in this Liquorville with host Justin Timberlake
    Gaga also performed her songs Edge Of Glory and Judas during the show, as well as joining in with the comedy sketches.
    she was the female element in a song about threesomes performed by Timberlake and comedian Adam Samberg.
    The hilarious song, which included the chorus 'It's okay when it's in a three-way, it's not gay when it's in a three-way. With some honey in the middle there's some leeway, the area's grey in a one, two, three-way.'
    ©Surprise: Timberlake and Samberg end up in bed together without Gaga in the amusing video
    The singer kept a straight face throughout the song, which sees Timberlake and Samberg end up in bed together without her.
    In another scene she put a huge cork on her head, with a dress covered in grapes and a huge wine glass on each of her arms in Timberlake's Liquorville sketch.
    ©Appeal: Gaga asked fans to send in videos for the advert and editors were inundated with material
    Fans responded within minutes and uploaded hundreds more videos.
    As the videos streamed in, editors worked on the video in real time dropping in new footage as it was received.
    The film was completed four days ago, just in time for Gaga's performance on yesterday's season finale of Saturday Night Live.

    'Artists should be more aware and responsible for their actions,' she continued.
    After hoards of Selena fans then defended their idol, Pink posted a further message standing by her opinions.
    'Whether u r a fan of mine or whomEVER'S, I won't stop speaking out about animal cruelty.'
    'I've taken responsibility in the past, so should she.'
    ©On her high horse: Pink took to her Twitter to criticise the Disney star
    However a representative for the record company insists that no animals were harmed during filming.
    'It was important to the Production Company, Record Label and Ms. Gomez that no animals were harmed and all proper precautions were taken,' Gomez's spokesperson said in a statement to People magazine.
    'A non toxic, vegetable based powder paint was applied via an airbrush and removed with water. An official from the Humane Society was on set supervising.'
    Selena filmed a fanciful scenes while on location.
    Wearing a flowing strapless floor-length gown and with her dark hair worn long and straight, the former Disney star danced in the surf with a handsome male love interest.
