To be honest I think even the people saying sub are a bit optimistic - if she's playing Sunday then my best guess would be 3rd from top immediately after Kylie. Even then I think Kylie would slightly overshadow her. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dunno really but fair to say that she's bigger than previous Sunday night subs Weller, Beck and Biffy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FloorFiller Posted January 29, 2019 Report Share Posted January 29, 2019 Aye Janet ain’t headlining. She’s big in name but I don’t think she’s ever really been THAT much of a big deal over here musically, or at least not for a while. I’d go for her going post-Kylie, similar to Katy Perry, Shakira etc from previous years. Kylie > Janet > Vampire Weekend > The Cure Gimme gimme gimme.

Definitely for a stretch she was operating in the same league as the likes of Prince or Madonna. A proto-Beyonce. Though obviously since then she's gone into this weird sort of semi-retirement.

Gnomicide Posted January 29, 2019 Report Share Posted January 29, 2019 She's had loads of hits but the only one I can think of is the one about not having a shag. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaledonianGonzo Posted January 29, 2019 Report Share Posted January 29, 2019 Wikipedia confirms my inkling that she's sold a truckload in her time. More so than any of the above. Agree that you dont hear her much these days. On the face of it though, subbing Vampire Weekend would be a fucking weird place for a career relaunch.

henry bear Posted January 29, 2019 Report Share Posted January 29, 2019 Dunno why that article called it a career relaunch, unless it meant specifically the UK - she’s been on the road from 2017, the tour ending in Japan next month. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amy Lawn Posted January 29, 2019 Report Share Posted January 29, 2019 Remember when Janet Jackson's boob was accidentally on TV for about 1 second and the entire world lost their minds about it for about 6 months? All anybody could talk about. The news used to be quite banal before the constant existential threat of western civilisation's impending collapse.

AThirteen Posted January 29, 2019 Report Share Posted January 29, 2019 6 hours ago, s30foster said: Odds have been slashed on The Killers headlining according to NME. “’Somebody Told Me’ that The Killers could be on for another Glastonbury headliner slot this year – so we’ve cut our odds after they’ve been well backed,” said a spokesman for 888sport. “Brandon Flowers would certainly be ‘The Man’ for the job, and after a flurry of bets, we think they’re set to light up the Pyramid Stage once again.” Saw that. Interesting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
