Peaches Geldof had to keep order at a recent gig after a tarantula made a surprise appearance.

The 17-year-old, who is trying to launch a career as a DJ alongside best friend Fiona Ritchie, served up peaches and bananas for fans at her show.

A source told the Daily Star, "It was a great gig. And the fruit idea was a nice touch. Everybody was dancing happily and munching on fruit until there was a loud scream. And a young girl claimed she had found an exotic spider inside a pile of fruit.

"Obviously everybody went bananas. But Peaches was calm and collected and managed to subdue the hysteria. And her old man would be proud, because an hour later she was back on the decks."
