Rapper Kanye West’s Glastonbury headline set did not disappoint in the controversy department when Jewish comedian Simon Brodkin stormed the stage just minutes in to his set.

A few songs into the show, West had a close encounter as the comedian – whose stage name is Lee Nelson – stormed the stage.

Nelson has become known for his various stunts over the years.

He appeared during West’s song Skinhead wearing a t-shirt with ‘Lee-Zus’ on it before being removed by security.

West was left momentarily thrown by the incident and restarted the song.

Nelson posted a photo on his Twitter account after the incident and said: “Some people were saying Kanye shouldn’t headline Glastonbury so I thought I’d give him a hand.”
