LEGENDARY popstar Craig David has hosted an incredible rave in the most unlikely of places – a London launderette.
The surprise performance lasted a total 15-minutes as the superstar set out to entertain customers while they waited for their washing load to finish.
The artist, 43, turned DJ played a series of his top hits from Fill Me In to Rewind on his iconic TS5 set as the crowd danced alongside him in a neon-lit laundry room.
Craig set out in collaboration with Persil research found that out of 2,000 adults 25-34-year-olds are hustling to get tasks done quickly in the hours before and after their day job.
33 per cent of all respondents even said they feel they spend too much time doing their laundry to combat this Persil created The Wonder Wash.
Craig who teamed with Persil, said: “I’ve performed in some wild locations, but never a launderette – get that washing in, 15 minutes, play the set and bop bop bop.
“I’m definitely an evening person rather than a morning person, my morning routine is to get up, drink water – and have a shower – and it’s in the shower where my inspiration comes.
“If I had an extra 15 minutes, I would use it just take time to myself, our time is the best currency we have, it’s so important.
“I’ve loved performing at the Fast Wash and Rave – the crowd was brilliant, it smelt great.”
Nathan Palmer, spokesperson for Unilever, added: “It has been a real pleasure working with Craig David to reward these hustlers with a once in a lifetime experience.”
