Sting buzzes into Istanbul
23 June 2006
Rock singer Sting and his wife Trudie Styler have been out and about in Istanbul.
The 54-year-old former Police frontman was in the city to perform at a concert for 15,000 fans.
However, after the couple jetted into the city in a private jet with 22-year-old daughter Mickey, they managed to spend time sightseeing and taking in one of the many bazaars.
Like any other visitor, they haggled over the cost of textiles with stallholders, getting into the spirit of Istanbul's markets.
After the concert the singer headed out to a club with friends.
The Mirror reports his attempts at belly dancing were a little less than successful and he failed to encourage his wife to join him on the dance floor.
An onlooker stingingly told the paper: "His attempt at belly dancing was hilarious - and not in a good way. He should stick to singing."
Other big stars that will be heading to the Turkish city to perform this summer include James Brown, Pink Floyd founder Roger Waters, Depeche Mode and Sean Paul.
