Singer Ellie Goulding afraid of ‘heights’

CANNES — British songbird Ellie Goulding said her legs were trembling while performing acapella at the Spotify dinner in Cannes.

But it wasn’t the footlights making her shake — it was her footwear.

“I’m just not used to wearing high heels and I’m afraid to [bend over to] take them off because you might see my underwear,” the 27-year old singer said while performing at the Cannes Lions advertising confab here.

Goulding got a dinner guest to reach down and help her kick off her heels.

Spotify was hoping guests were in the mood for a late night since their second act, Distraction, had their flight from Los Angeles delayed and they were scrambling to hit the Spotify house before the rose wine ran dry.
