LEWIS CAPALDI FLIES HIGH AS HE SURPRISES PASSENGERS ON FLIGHT

LEWIS Capaldi soared above his chart competition after he teased new single, ‘Wish You The Best’ at 35,000ft yesterday, surprising customers on a British Airways flight from London Heathrow to Los Angeles.

Theshowbizlion.com always thought of Lewis as a high flyer and following take-off, he made his way through the aircraft with a British Airways drinks trolley, much to the surprise of those on board, including four unsuspecting superfans who had been personally invited onto the flight. 

Lewis serenaded customers with a chorus and verse of the unreleased track, with the lyrics declaring “it seems like Glasgow gets further from LA”, as the flight travelled across the Atlantic.

It’s been a whirlwind return for Lewis, rocketing straight to the top of the UK singles chart with comeback single, ‘Forget Me’ and on latest single ‘Pointless’ which became his fourth UK number 1, an honour that equals the likes of Whitney Houston, Cher, Jay-Z, One Direction, Pharrell, Justin Timberlake and Usher.

Ahead of the album, a special, raw and honest feature length music documentary, ‘Lewis Capaldi: How I’m Feeling Now’, in partnership with Netflix, BMG, & Pulse Films, executive produced by Independent Entertainment will be released globally on Netflix on April 5th.

His highly anticipated second album Broken By Desire To Be Heavenly Sent is out May 19th on EMI Records. Selling over 10 million copies worldwide, debut album Divinely Uninspired To A Hellish Extent propelled Capaldi from bedroom musician to superstar. Few have seen a debut release quite like it, becoming the biggest selling UK album of 2019 & 2020, spawning two UK number 1 singles, bagging a few BRITs and a Grammy nomination, with one of those number 1’s becoming a smash hit on both sides of the globe in ‘Someone You Loved’, which recently became the UK’s most streamed song of ALL TIME.

Having recently sold out his 2023 UK arena tour in a matter of seconds, he will headline Reading & Leeds Festival in August, perform at Glastonbury Festival, as well as play his biggest headline summer shows to date to over 30,000 fans a night in Manchester, Edinburgh & Belfast. Lewis is currently embarking on his biggest ever sold-out headline tour of North America this Spring. 

If his first album made him an international star, with his second it’s nothing less than superstardom that beckons. With the public now getting an inside look into the life of a global superstar, the insatiable appetite for Capaldi burns as bright as ever.

NEIGHBOURS STARS IN SCOTLAND TRY TUNNOCKS AND IRN BRU

NEIGHBOURS stars Stefan Dennis and April

Rose Pengilly tucked into Irn Bru and Tunnocks teacakes while Alan Fletcher explored Oran Mor during a trip to Scotland. 

The Neighbours cast visited Glasgow and Edinburgh as part of their Celebration Tour which had initially been organised to mark the end of Neighbours being broadcast in the UK - before it was saved by Amazon. 

And they were on top form as they told of their love of Scotland and mingled with lifelong fans of the show.

The cast, who were staying at the Hilton Glasgow hotel over the weekend, spent most of their time at the city’s Armadillo for meet and greets and the show but some managed to go for a walk in the morning during the cold spell. 

Dr Karl Kennedy, played by Alan Fletcher was accompanied by his wife Jennifer Hansen as he took a stroll in the West end - visiting Oran Mor where he is due perform music from his new album next month. He also visited Bannermans in Edinburgh where he will also tour. 

As he had a drink with his wife at the Glasgow Hilton bar after the show he told the Daily Record: “I can’t wait for you to be Neighbours with me again when the new season starts. I got my first taste of snow here in Glasgow with my wife. We are having the time of our lives thanks to all the wonderful Neighbours fans surrounding us with their love of our show.”

Stefan Dennis who plays Paul Robinson and April Rose Pengilly who is Chloe Brennan on the show tried out some of our Scottish delicacies. 

Stefan, who used to live here with his wife, while starring in River City said it was great to be back in Scotland - his other home. 

As Stefan put on his Weegie accent and told her the correct pronunciation, April pulled a face and said: “So everybody’s been telling me to drink this Irn Bru.  It’s good. It kind of just tastes like fizzy. It’s alright. Now we’re going to try these Tunnocks tea cakes which we actually have in Australia.  I just didn’t know they were a thing. That gets the thumbs up. I like that better than the Irn Bru.” 

April said of her trip to Glasgow that it was ‘more like GlasWOAH’ and that she had had an excellent night. 

She had also visited a chihuahua cafe in Edinburgh and said it was ‘a dream come true.’

Annie Jones who plays plain Jane Harris also admitted her trip to Scotland was the first time she saw snow, commenting: “It’s snow out there - so exciting. It’s the first time I’ve seen it. I did a happy dance.”
