Pink says V Festival is mind-blowing
Music stars including Dido, Pink, Keane and Kelis have performed for fans at the ninth annual V Festival in Staffordshire and Essex.
"This is my first festival. Just looking at the stage was absolutely mind-blowing," said Pink.
The Pixies and The Strokes are due to headline the event later.
Pink, whose hits include Get The Party Started, told Virgin Radio that the experience had given her a buzz.
"It's a real trip, there were so many faces looking at me."
More than 50 bands will perform live at the weekend festival, including New York band the Scissor Sisters, who recently performed at Glastonbury.
"We last played V in 2001 and have been looking forward to coming back since then," rock band Muse said in a statement launching the festival. It's a cool festival with a great vibe. The diverse styles of the bands performing always make for a really interesting line-up."
The gates opened at noon on Saturday, with London pop act Big Brovaz kicking off the music.
Famous faces in the crowd included pop singer Sophie Ellis Bextor, who brought along her baby son, born earlier this year.
EastEnders actress Scarlett Johnson, who plays Vicki Fowler, and actor Jeremy Edwards, were also at Chelmsford.
