Duffy says she will turn down VIP treatment and camp at Glastonbury.

The soul singer, 23, said she snubbed the offer of hotel accommodation for her gig at the summer festival.

"My label has booked me a room in a posh hotel for when I go to Glastonbury," she told the Daily Star. "But I'm going to do it properly on principle.

"I'm gonna pitch up a tent and explore."

She also claimed she would never employ a security team because it would annoy her that she couldn't go out and chat up men.

"I'll never be one of those artists who take security and an entourage with them," said the Rockferry star.

"I'd hate a big man following me around - I'd be like: 'Aaargh, back off. I wanna pull'."
