Jessie Ware brought out Beth Ditto on stage as a surprise guest during her headlining set at Mighty Hoopla 2024.

The ‘That! Feels Good!’ singer closed out the London music festival last night (June 2) playing tracks such as ‘Shake The Bottle’, ‘Ooh La La’, ‘Begin Again’ and more.

Midway through her set, Ware brought out the Gossip frontwoman as a surprise guest and the two jumped into a rendition of the band’s track ‘Standing in the Way of Control’.

Elsewhere in her set, Ware performed ‘Freak Me Now,’ ‘Hot N Heavy,’ ‘What’s Your Pleasure?’ and ‘Spotlight’, alongside a cover of Cher‘s ‘Believe’.

For her second surprise guests of the night, the singer brought out Sink the Pink dancers to join her during ‘Beautiful People’ and the final song of the night ‘Free Yourself’.

Elsewhere, Ware is set to perform at this year’s Glastonbury festival. She will be headlining the West Holts stage alongside the likes of Jungle and Justice, with acts such as Danny BrownBlack PumasBritany HowardSugababesSquid and more set to perform.

Earlier this year, Ditto revealed that she had never heard Rihanna’s hit song ‘Umbrella’ until Ware sang it to her at Glastonbury.

“I did not realise that was you, and in my memory, the first time I’d ever heard the song ‘Umbrella’ was you and your friend. I remember the two of you, your haircut… everybody did it because you had an umbrella,” she told Jessie and her mum Lennie.

“It’s such a core memory for me because I remember that day that these two girls walked up to me, I remember y’all singing ‘Umbrella, ella, ella‘ and I was thinking ‘These girls are singing a hit!’ I did not know it was a Rihanna song, I thought you made it up!”
