One of the biggest names in music, Calvin Harris, was spotted by fans in a motorway service station near Harrogate this week.

Livvy Elder and her friends had stopped at Wetherby Services on their way back to Newcastle following a weekend of raving at Creamfields festival.

Her boyfriend claimed he saw someone ‘in a red flannel shirt that resembled Calvin Harris’ in the male toilets, according to Livvy, but the group agreed ‘the world’s biggest DJ would never be in Wetherby’.

Much to their surprise, Calvin Harris appeared in front of them moments later after buying a coffee at Pret A Manger.

Livvy told the Stray Ferret:

“We were laughing away and ended up sitting down outside of Pret, expecting to be proven right that it wasn’t him, but other people started to talk and chatter away and we noticed that it actually was him!
“The biggest Dj in the world was just a metre away from us.


The group had watched the Scottish DJ headline the festival just two nights prior to meeting him.

Livvy continued:

“My friend was the one to ask him for a photo and told him we were sorry for disturbing him for a photo, but he was the kindest man so humble – he said it was no problem at all.”
“He even said I looked super cosy  --  I was totally wiped out from the festival and was in my pyjamas and Newcastle football shirt for the drive home.
“I was absolutely mortified to meet the biggest DJ looking like that.
“It totally topped off our weekend and was a moment we will never forget!”


Calvin Harris boasts an impressive 11 million followers on Instagram and 65.8 million monthly listeners on Spotify.

He now has an annual residency at one of the largest clubs in the world, Ushuaia, Ibiza, and has had 11 UK No.1 songs.
