Calvin Harris has been announced as the replacement for Duran Duran at this year's V Festival.

The 'Bounce' hitmaker will now join the bill as Duran Duran's frontman, Simon Le Bon, has experienced damage to his vocal chords and the band were forced to pull out of not only the festival, but their other scheduled concerts.

Harris said in a statement, "I can't wait to perform at V Festival - the crowds are always amazing in both Chelmsford and Stafford. It's going to be a lot of fun."
