Glastonbury: Shania Twain says she wants to ride a horse to her set


 Shania Twain is hoping to arrive for her Glastonbury set in style by riding a horse to the Pyramid Stage - but admits she'll "have to find out if it's allowed".

The country music icon will be following in the footsteps of Dolly Parton, Diana Ross and Johnny Cash as she takes to the stage for the prestigious legends slot on Sunday - usually a highlight of the festival weekend. Asked if she had any special plans for her show, the Canadian singer told BBC Breakfast: "I love horses. I love animals, I'm going to see if there's a horse around I can borrow."

She continued: "I'd love to ride a horse to the stage... I'll have to find out if it's allowed."

It wouldn't be the first time the 58-year-old singer has incorporated a horse into her performance.

Twain used to sing her hit "You're Still The One" while sitting on the back of a white horse during her Las Vegas residency at Caesars Palace between 2012 and 2014.

She was also seen riding a horse through a yucca plantation in the video for her 2005 single Don't!.

Twain also often appears on social media with her own horses - including three Tennessee walking horses and two American saddlebreds. Meanwhile, Twain has suggested her Glastonbury show will be free of guest appearances - ruling out sharing the stage with Harry Styles two years after they sang together at Coachella.The singer said she is "overwhelmed" to be following in the footsteps of music icons such as Barry Gibb, Kylie Minogue, and Lionel Ritchie - who have all graced the stage for the Legends slot in previous years.



She said: "It's been explained to me that it is a real event, a once in a lifetime thing. Everyone keeps going: 'Let me tell you about it. Let me tell you about my experiences'."Twain's 1997 album Come On Over is one of the top 10 best-selling global albums of all time and its singles, including Don't Be Stupid (You Know I Love You) and From This Moment On, will likely feature in her Glastonbury set list.

She said: "I'm planning on getting up there and having so much fun. I'd love to be able to sing with everyone and be a part of the journey of the crowd. So, I'm going to do everything familiar. I want to do the hits. I want to do what they know."

Isak extends Newcastle hot streak to increase heat on Postecoglou’s Spurs

 Alexander Isak once again proved why he’s Newcastle United’s star striker, as his brace secured a dominant 3-1 victory over Tottenham Hotspur. Eddie Howe’s men continued their blazing form, climbing further up the Premier League table and amplifying the pressure on Ange Postecoglou’s faltering Spurs. Newcastle entered the game riding high after recent victories, and they wasted no time asserting their dominance. Isak opened the scoring in the 12th minute, capitalizing on a defensive mix-up. The Swedish forward’s lethal finishing was on full display, leaving Tottenham’s defense scrambling. Spurs, who started the season strongly under Postecoglou, have seen their momentum stall in recent weeks. Despite a brief spark from Son Heung-min, who pulled one back in the 34th minute, Tottenham struggled to regain control. Newcastle’s midfield, led by Bruno Guimarães and Sandro Tonali, dictated the pace, keeping Spurs on the back foot. Isak sealed the win with a stunning solo effort in the 68...
