"Santigold entertained Bestival&amp;#039;s Big Top punters as the Isle of Wight event got under way on Thursday. The former A&amp;amp;R executive - real name Santi White - delivered a high energy set featuring her breakthrough UK singles &amp;#039;L.E.S Artistes&amp;#039; and &amp;#039;Creator&amp;#039;. Santigold selected at least half a dozen fans to come onto the stage to dance, turning on the house\u00C2\u00A0lights, gesturing and shouting: &amp;quot;Just come up!&amp;quot; Her own backing dancers wielded a variety of props during the set, including sparkling gold pom-poms, hammers and umbrellas. As Santigold disappeared for a costume change, a white pantomime horse took to the stage in her place. The musician frequently encouraged the crowd to clap and participate, waving her hands and encouraging the audience to do likewise &amp;quot;all the way to the back&amp;quot; of the tent. Bestival guests arriving on the first day have also been entertained by a live performance from The La&amp;#039;s and a DJ set from Richard X.  Acts including Brian Wilson, Patrick Wolf, Public Enemy and main stage headliners Pendulum are due to perform at the Rob da Bank-curated event tomorrow.
