In London later...

The Streets will be backed by a choir that looks like they've come from a “chav wedding” at the BBC Electric Proms later, it's been reported.

Frontman Mike Skinner has apparently requested that the choir wears scruffy suits and untucked shirts with sports trainers.

A source told the Sun newspaper: “Mike wanted to bring his own style to the gig. He ordered dozens of white Reebok Classic shoes for all the choir and orchestra.

“And their suits will be battered and dishevelled, like at the end of a chav wedding when everyone has had too much to drink and a scrap.”

The Streets are due to perform at the London's Roundhouse as part of Electric Proms, which began yesterday.

For the first time, the event – which will be headlined by Oasis – is taking place in both London and Liverpool.
