Calvin Harris has offered a tongue in cheek apology, after crashing the X Factor stage during John and Edward Grimes’ performance on Saturday night.

Calvin told The Sun:

“It’s not for my own publicity. I’m not a celebrity – I make music.

“Dancing on stage with a pineapple on your head is a very stupid thing to do, but I also want to suggest that it’s a very stupid television programme.”

Harris also revealed that it wasn’t hard t crash the stage and that security was minimal. He added:

“I was very surprised how easy it was to get up there. If anything good is going to come out of it, they should stick another man in front of the stage.”

A show source revealed that bosses will be taking extra security measures in a bid to stop any further breaches. They said: “It was completely unacceptable for Calvin to run on stage like that. It could have been an idiot with a knife. From now on security will be seriously stepped up.

“There will be more guards in the studio. Anyone who looks like they are going to do something similar will be pounced on immediately.”
