Best known for her nineties hit song “I’m Like a Bird”, Nelly Furtado wowed fans as she took the stage in a daring denim mini skirt and cut out top over the weekend.
The 46-year-old performed on day one of 2025’s Big Feastival in Oxfordshire and completed her sultry look with white knee-high boots. The mother-of-three looked sensational as she brought a sense of nostalgia to the stage for Y2K fans. Earlier this year, Nelly took to social media to convey an important message of body positivity, having faced some criticism online for her new look.
“HAVE A BODY NEUTRAL 2025, BUT MOST IMPORTANTLY, LOVE WITH EVERY INCH OF YOUR HEART. THANKS FOR ALL THE MEMORIES THIS YEAR,” she wrote.
“‘This year I became aware of the aesthetic pressure of my work in a brand new way, while simultaneously I experienced new levels of self love and genuine confidence from within,” she added.

We are all cute little humans just bouncing around the earth looking for hugs,” she concluded.
Nelly took a hiatus from the music industry to focus on motherhood and raising her three children.

“And I love kind of things that make me feel uncomfortable in the studio, like bringing perhaps two people together that I think might not get along, argue in the studio. I find that fun.”
