US rapper Pitbull has set the first Guinness World Record for the largest gathering of people wearing bald caps.
A total of 22,141 fans wore the caps in London's Hyde Park on Friday ahead of his set at the British Summer Time (BST) festival.
Many also sported other elements of the singer's signature style - a suit, black aviator sunglasses and stick-on dark goatees.
"Record breaking, record making, history in the making," the 45-year-old hip hop artist said before being presented with his certificate.
"Thank you London, thank you to the fans, thank you Hyde Park, thank you to the bald-es," he added, as temperatures reached 31C in the British capital.
