Idris Elba Heads To Glastonbury

Idris Elba is fionnee, but did you know he can also sing (in that talk-sing kinda way). Idris will join Dolly Parton and The Black Keys at this summer’s Glastonbury Festival under his artist name “Driis.”

“I get butterflies when I act but when you’ve got two turntables and 6,000 people in front of you, standing there going ‘come on then’ – that feeling doesn’t rely on the skills of an actor,” Elba told Gigwise. “It’s all about instinct and knowing your music and reading the crowd. You don’t get that from acting.”

Check out his video “Private Garden”:
