Pop chart stars N-Dubz brought the three-day Whitehaven Festival to a close yesterday.

Whitehaven festival 2010

The mainly teenage crowd whooped with delight as the hip hop group came on stage.

Tulisa, Dappy and Fazer had come straight from Glastonbury earlier in the day to rock the crowd at the harbour.

They sang a number of their hits including Playing with Fire and Say It’s Over.

They also did some covers including a version of The Script’s song Man Who Can’t Be Moved. They also did a mash-up of Jay Sean’s Down Down Down and Black Eyed Peas’s Meet Me Half Way.

The crowd, most of whom had queued up for three hours, lapped up the one-hour set.

The energetic performance was met with approval from fans as they jumped up and down singing along and echoing Dappy’s catchphrase – Na na naiiiii!

Tulisa and Fazer even joked on stage and were breathless during their hit Ouch as they stopped to have a pillow fight.

They sang non-stop – apart from three breaks for costume changes.

Tulisa glammed up in a frilly white and blue dress, a red and black dress and gold corset and hotpants.

Dappy and Fazer donned their trademark hats and tracksuits. Dappy even dressed his up with flashing red lights along his arms.

They dedicated their latest hit We Dance On to Kieran Goulding and Chloe Walker, victims of the A66 Keswick bus crash.

The group also dedicated their song Papa Can you Hear Me to the families of the Cumbrian shooting victims and to Kieron and Chloe, thoughtfully changing the words to “Cumbria can you hear me?”

Fazer added that the song had been a memoir to Dappy’s father and Tulisa’s uncle who died a few years ago, but was relevant to anyone who had lost someone, especially those in the tragedies.
