While most festivalgoers are happy to soak up the music and the mud at Glastonbury, it turns out the A-listers who descend on Worthy Farm each year often bring a bit more drama with them. Whether it's on-stage rants, backstage bust-ups, or VIPs being turned away at the gates, Glasto has a long history of unforgettable celebrity scandals.

The world's most iconic music festival isn't just a celebration of sound - it's also become the backdrop for some of the most talked-about moments in showbiz history. From pop stars storming off stage to bitter rivalries played out in front of thousands, no one is safe when festival fever kicks in. As up to 210,000 fans head to the fields for this year's event, we take a look back at some of the biggest Glastonbury bust-ups to ever hit the headlines.

Liam Gallagher's rocky relationship with Glastonbury spans decades - and dramas. In 2004, Oasis headlined Worthy Farm, but what should have been a triumphant return quickly soured.

"I hated that gig, man," Liam later admitted, blaming in-ear monitors for severing his connection to the crowd.

His vocals were off, the band lacked energy, and fans later branded the show "lifeless" and "the beginning of the end" for Oasis.

Fast-forward to 2019, and Liam was back - this time solo - with a swagger-filled set that reignited old tensions.

Between belting out Oasis classics, he aimed barbs at estranged brother Noel, calling him "the bald one" and, once again, a "potato."

The crowd roared, but organisers were reportedly less amused.

When Kanye West was announced as a 2015 Glastonbury headliner, it sparked instant outrage.

Over 130,000 people signed a petition to have him removed from the line-up, calling him "an insult to music fans".

But Kanye didn't just perform - he doubled down. Mid-set, he declared himself "the greatest living rock star on the planet," paused the show to restart a song, and delivered an awkward, off-key cover of Queen's 'Bohemian Rhapsody' that was widely mocked online.

Despite the dramatic visuals and big production, critics called the set self-indulgent and erratic, with some fans even walking out.

Robbie Williams' wild weekend at Glastonbury 1995 didn't just fuel tabloid headlines - it ended his career with Take That.

At the time, tensions were already brewing between Robbie and his bandmates, and his decision to party with Oasis only added fuel to the fire.

Despite Noel Gallagher once branding him "that fat dancer from Take That," Robbie joined forces with Noel's brother Liam for a booze- and smoke-fuelled rampage around the festival.

Photos from the weekend showed Robbie with a blacked-out tooth and chain-smoking his way through Worthy Farm.

The chaos didn't end there - upon returning from Glasto, Robbie reportedly had a major bust-up with the rest of Take That, who were concerned about his increasingly erratic behaviour.

Days later, he agreed to quit the band, marking one of the most notorious Glastonbury fallouts in pop history.

Adele's 2016 Pyramid Stage headline slot was a massive Glastonbury moment - but also a sweary one.

The London-born superstar, known for her no-filter charm, was reportedly warned by BBC bosses ahead of the broadcast to keep her language in check.

But that didn't quite go to plan. During her 90-minute set, Adele managed to swear a whopping 33 times, thrilling fans but sending live editors into a panic.

At one point, she even pulled a young fan on stage for a selfie - and accidentally burped in her face, later blaming a pre-show "dirty burger".

Afterwards, Adele admitted: "The BBC had to give me a warning about my potty mouth. Bet Muse didn't get that!"

Even VIPs get knocked back at Glastonbury - just ask Wayne and Coleen Rooney. The couple, regulars at the festival, are known for arriving in style, often by helicopter and flanked by a gang of pals.

But back in 2013, their celebrity status wasn't enough to get them past security. Despite flashing their VIP wristbands, Wayne and Coleen were caught on camera trying - and failing - to talk their way backstage at Dizzee Rascal's set.

Wearing matching Hunter wellies, the pair were seen in a heated exchange with staff at the artist entrance, but were ultimately turned away after being told they weren't on the list.

With no Access All Areas pass in sight, the Rooney's were reportedly sent packing to watch the set from the crowd like everyone else.

When Glastonbury announced Jay-Z as a headliner in 2008, it caused uproar - and none louder than from Oasis frontman Noel Gallagher.

"I'm not having hip hop at Glastonbury. It's wrong," he famously declared, slamming the festival's genre shift.

Jay-Z didn't respond - at least not immediately. But when he took to the Pyramid Stage that summer, he walked out with a guitar strapped over his shoulder and launched into a tongue-in-cheek cover of Oasis's Wonderwall.

The crowd went wild. It was a legendary mic-drop moment - slick, savage, and unforgettable. Jay-Z then transitioned into his own hit 99 Problems, sealing his headline status and putting Noel firmly in his place.

The stunt went down in Glasto history, not just as a musical moment, but as one of the festival's greatest ever clapbacks.
