    Blunt Tells Of Best Way To Pull At Glastonbury

    James Blunt has given Gigwise some strong words of advice for anyone wanting to go on the pull at Glastonbury: “Get them drunk.”

    The Beautiful singer (the song not the man) went on to defend his words by adding: “You’re always funnier and better looking when you’re drunk.”

    Blunt is performing on the Pyramid stage today (June 28) and is critical of the way the media likes to quickly jump on people.

    Talking of his own success and the hate that has surrounded him, he said he paid no attention to it because the fans speak for themselves.

    “You know I’ve been on a world tour for 14 months and played to 3,5 and 20,000 people every night and they all come along and it doesn’t matter what sex or race or religion – they all leave with big smiles on their faces.

    “There’s only a positive thing and reaction so it’s pretty hard to feel anything negative about it.”

    He also commented on the media hype and stories surrounding tonights headliner, Jay-Z, by stating: “I think the British media have a wonderful knack of putting a negative spin on just about everything. I think maybe they should get out a bit more.”

    We had time to quickly ask the ladies man if he had any advice from his numerous trips to Glastonbury. He said: “In the morning when you try to wake up, because you’re eyelids are quite thin aren’t they and always see light when it comes up, so its best to get a black marker pen and draw on the outside.”

    Keep posted for more stories from the site as and when we get them.
