He's certainly one of the country's biggest rockers.

But the massive crowds at Scotland's T In The Park music festival got an even bigger surprise when Hollywood star Will Smith jumped on stage to introduce Calvin Harris, who was the headlining act on Saturday night. 

The Men In Black star took to the main stage before the DJ appeared in front of tens of thousands of people at Balado in Kinross-shire.

Will, 45, told fans: 'Ladies and gentleman, I present to you - Scotland's own, Calvin Harris.'

The 30-year-old - a firm favourite with the crowd - opened by playing Under Control.

Revellers danced in the rain as he played for more than an hour, before Will joined him back on stage for the final song shouting: 'Scotland, I love you.'

The Men In Black star rocked a blue jean jacket with black leather sleeves over a black T-shirt, and black leather jeans.

And heeeere's Calvin: The 45-year-old pointed as the Scottish singer-songwriter hit the stage

The set came after a performance from Paolo Nutini in which he saved his hit Last Request until the end, much to the delight of the audience.

Festival-goers earlier covered up in waterproof ponchos as heavy downpours descended while Pharrell Williams took to the main stage at the event, which has four stages.

The rain cleared up during his 60-minute set, which he closed with hit single Happy.

The Charlatans were welcomed back to the festival 18 years to the day they performed at the very first T In The Park in 1997.

The Stranglers, Katy B and Scottish band Twin Atlantic, James and Rudimental were also on the line-up.

Sunday, the final day of the event, will see Arctic Monkeys become the last act to play at the festival's current home near Kinross.

Paul Weller, Jake Bugg, Kaiser Chiefs, Bastille and Franz Ferdinand are also included in the line-up bidding farewell to Balado.

The festival is moving to the Strathallan Castle estate in Perthshire next year.

Would have loved it if Will and Calvin did a remix of classics such as Miami and Summertime or Switch, that would be awesome!

They don't even play records anymore... they "produce" the set in a hotel room or at home then just turn up and either stick a CD in or press play on their laptop... The get paid just to turn up in person...

I thought that it was embarrassing when he joined Harris at the end. You wouldn't go on stage to share the last moment with a band and act like a fool, so why did he?

I totally agree with you Janey!.....I was just about to make a comment to say I've always liked Will, always believed him to be a level headed man. I don't know if he's influenced by his wife or what, but his kids act way passed their age and I just hope I'm only judging a book by its cover and that all they are doing is just putting on a "show" by rich kids with too much time on their hands not doing anything constructive or good for the community (at least I don't hear about it) - and not make any mistakes they forever will regret.
