According to reports, fans mistook the sound for “gun-shot-like noises,” causing many to rush towards the exit in panic, with some eyewitnesses describing the scene as a “stampede”.

In his soothing Devon tones, Chris - who curates the festival for the Global Poverty Project charity - explained the situation from the stage, saying: "What happened is a barrier I think fell down... Of course it caused people to be a little frightened.

"But nobody is trying to hurt anybody you’re all safe I just want to tell you that."

"I can only assume you relate to his personality on some level," wrote Del Rey. "Delusions of grandeur, extreme issues with narcissism.

"None of which would be a talking point if we weren't speaking about the man leading our country.

"If you think it's alright to support someone who believes it's OK to grab a woman by the pussy just because he's famous, then you need an intervention just as much as he does."

She signed off saying: "Message sent with concern that will never be addressed."
