SEVENTEEN have been spotted performing covers of AdeleBruno Mars and more at a restaurant in Bath – watch fan-filmed footage down below.

The 13-piece boyband made the surprise appearance at Square Grill in the city centre, fresh off the backs of their historic Glastonbury debut. SEVENTEEN became the first K-pop act to perform at the festival ever as they took to the Pyramid Stage yesterday (June 28).

But it appears the boys weren’t done performing just yet. They stopped by the restaurant in Bath, where member Woozi opted to step into the restaurant’s live music corner. Accompanied by a pianist, he took on vocal duty for Mars’ ‘When I Was Your Man’, and Michael Jackson’s ‘Man In The Mirror’, whilst Seungkwan sang his rendition of Calum Scott‘s ‘You Are The Reason’ and Adele staple ‘Someone Like You’.

Fans have since reacted to the news on social media, expressing shock and amusement. One posted a series of crying emojis, commenting that it was the “restaurant I went to for my graduation meal”, whilst another simply wrote: “These middle-aged women don’t know what just happened to them”.

Check out SEVENTEEN’s covers and a number of fan reactions below:

 

 

 

 

 

In a five-star review of SEVENTEEN’s Glastonbury debutNME wrote: “Earlier in the afternoon, when Glastonbury is still just getting acquainted with SEVENTEEN, Joshua makes a sage point. “Language isn’t a barrier,” he tells the crowd. “We can connect through song.”

“That’s something the group demonstrate throughout their time on the Pyramid, but perhaps no stronger than in the final two numbers. ‘God Of Music’ has the crowd chanting the hook, drawing out the anthemic joy that courses through the track.”

“‘Very Nice’, meanwhile, brings a playful and utterly exuberant close to proceedings, the boyband bringing their tradition of delivering repeated, energetic reprises of the chorus to the festival as they whip up the audience one last time. As SEVENTEEN say thank you in both Korean and English, they launch into one final round of the infectious refrain, their mark well and truly made on one of the biggest festivals in the world.”

NME spoke to the boyband about their Glastonbury debut, with Seungkwan calling it “such an honour, we’re super grateful. Some of the audience members might not know us that well, but we just hope that everyone would leave with the impression that these guys can really smash it on stage.”

The gates to Glastonbury 2024 opened on Wednesday (June 26), ahead of a weekend of music from the likes of headliners Dua LipaColdplay, and SZA, alongside Shania Twain’s legends slot and performances from LCD SoundsystemPJ HarveyLittle SimzBurna BoyIdlesAnne-MarieConfidence ManDisclosureCamila CabelloThe Last Dinner PartyAvril LavigneThe NationalJessie WareJungleJusticeMasegoSugababes and countless more. Check out the full line-up here.

Yung Joc Apologizes To Megan Thee Stallion After Publicly Doubting Her

image

Megan Thee Stallion was put through the ringer during her legal battle against Tory Lanez. Many believed that she was making false accusations against the R&B singer. These same people went after her publicly, and predicted that Lanez would prevail. Obviously, that did not happen. Lanez was found guilty and sentenced to ten years in prison for shooting Megan in the foot. Megan Thee Stallion was vindicated, and several people have come forward to issue an apology. Yung Joc is the latest.

Yung Joc went on Streetz Morning Takeover to make his apology official. He told the hosts that he was wrong for doubting Megan Thee Stallion. "I apologize for not supporting you in your moment and believing in the whole situation with you and Tory Lanez," he stated. "I still have questions, 'cause I'm human." The rapper also made reference to the bet. In short, he promised to shave his head if Lanez went to prison. "I think that the moment when I made the bet," he recalled. "Although we did it in a fun kinda way–maybe, just maybe, I was out of line for doing that."

Yung Joc Placed A Bet On Tory Lanez's Guilty Verdict

Yung Joc didn't stop there. The "Buy U A Drank" rapper followed through on the bet, and shaved his head in light of the guilty verdict. "I lost the bet," he told the Morning Takeover hosts. "And somewhere in there, we may have been a little buffoonish. 'Cause I really made a bet that this man was gon' get off, and he didn't. And I lost my hair. I'm sorry, Meg." Yung Joc revealed that he was inspired to make an apology after Shannon Sharpe did the same on his podcast, Club Shay Shay.

Like Yung Joc, Sharpe expressed doubt over Lanez's guilt. He tried to correct his mistake, however, by having Megan Thee Stallion on his podcast on July 2. He cleared the air right in front of her. "I believe the joke wouldn’t been just as funny if I would’ve left you out of it," Sharpe explained. "So for any unwanted attention, harm, shame, embarrassment that I caused you or your family. I wanna say as a man, as I sit here before you, I apologize."
