Kanye West

[FloorFiller]

Down as a rumour. Okay it's only a rumour, so basically means nothing, but any excuse to talk and speculate about the great man headlining

Any idea where the rumour came from? I know he's touring Europe next year, so it probably all boils down to that, but is there anything else to it?

I know he'd be a massively controversial headliner (well... on these boards, at least) but i personally can't think of an act i'd like to headline more. So there.

On a side note, the headliner rumours are really filling up. Maybe my memory deceives me but there seem to be a lot more than usual

Hmmm - No.

[Alcatraz]

If the festival wants to sustain the demand for next year, Kanye's the kind of guy who will bring that appeal more so than just about all the leading rumoured acts. Plus a pretty ballsy show from what I'm hearing from the States

His not really Glastonbury festival type act headlining

I hope he brings Jay Z on to beat the world record of N***as in Paris 100 times in the same set.

This from the NY Times

The combustible Mr. West is rap’s most theatrical figure — he performed most of this show in a mask, often accompanied by a dozen bodystocking-clad female dancers and, at the end of the night, a Jesus look-alike who told him, “That’s all I need from you to show people the light.”

Guys you can take your Oasis, Pink Flloyd and Adeles and shove them up your arse... this is what I WANT, I want a fucking egomaniac no pretending he's an egomaniac with a stage show thats fucking off the wall batshit insane.

[slamdunkdafunk]

I think Kanye would be incredible

[Gazsimmo1980]

This would be very good. The rumours page in general looks pretty strong.

Kanye would be excellent, I hope he does headline, because I will 100% be getting a ticket in the resale, and it'd be nice to see one Pyramid headliner, that's just enough I reckon.

Just warched some of his live stuff on youtube and its made me really want him to do it now, he'd have it bouncing

[alframsey]

I'd be very happy if Kanye did headline, very very happy.

Perfect headliner for the modern Glastonbury.

Stick him on the other stage (if his alleged ego allows it) against Fleetwood mac and you've got a good split.

[mrtourette]

I think you've got more chance getting Fleetwood Mac to play the Other stage.
