The singer-songwriter also shared her affection for the Island, telling fans: "I have a crush on you, Isle of Wight," prompting cheers from the audience.

Alessi Rose performed a selection of tracks from her growing catalogue, with fans singing along as she showcased the confidence and charisma that have made her one of the country's most talked-about emerging artists.

Her appearance represented a significant step forward from last year's festival, when she drew a huge Big Top crowd less than 24 hours after opening for Dua Lipa at Wembley Stadium.

Since then, Alessi Rose's profile has continued to soar through major tours, festival appearances and a growing fanbase.
