CUSTOMERS at a shop on the Glenshane Pass got the shock of their lives when two of the biggest names in pop music strolled in and picked up some snacks.
US solo artist Bruno Mars stopped off at a Centra shop in Maghera en route to Radio 1's Big Weekend in Derry and was followed some hours later by Danny O'Donoghue, pictured, from Dublin band The Script.
The pop stars were stocking up on some hot food and sugary snacks ahead of their performances in front of 13,000 fans in Derry's Ebrington Square on Sunday night.
Emma O'Hagan was working on the till at 8.30am on Sunday when two vehicles pulled up outside and a number of men spilled out.
"They were singing and rapping around the shop and we were asking 'who is that?'
And as if one major artist was not enough for Centra staff to handle, four hours later along came another in the form of Danny from The Script who also stopped off for hot food.
The Voice judge arrived at around 12.45pm and ordered various hot snacks, including sausage rolls. He also bought a selection of sweet pastries and sweets and left the store, with a member of his entourage paying and carrying the food to the singer's vehicle.
Pop stars, they're just like buses in Co Derry now.
