Kylie Minogue > Janet Jackson > George Ezra > The Cure.

 

I reckon.

Biggest crowd turnaround since Lana Del Rey > Robert Plant.

[SwedgeAntilles]

Nik Grimshaw revealing The Strokes are headlining or Lorraine Kelly revealing Janet Jackson is headlining.

Are any barrier demons gonna endure that to be front and centre for The Cure?

I was in the crowd coming in from elsewhere to see Robert Plant as well. I should've watched Lana and ditched the Plant in hindsight.

I saw the last 4 songs of Lana. My single worst Glastonbury experience. Plant was amazing.

there's a piece in the sun today which says she's playing but which doesn't say headliner. I suspect Lorraine has let her imagination run wild.

Lots of light entertainment people with no knowledge of festivals throw out 'headlining' wrongly for big acts who are playing. I heard people say it about Kylie.

[Chef]

Lol.

What a time to be alive.

Made the right call then.

 

Metallica blew everyone away that day anyway, and I'm not even a fan.

I think Janet straight after Kylie wouldn't be very sensible.   Janet is obviously a bigger star internationally but in the UK, Kylie's success has been on an entirely different level.   There would be a comparison between the 2 and Janet won't come off favourably.

I think Kylie - George Ezra - Janet Jackson - The Cure (or whoever) is an alright run tbh.

Yeah but George is far bigger over here.

 

Who knows how they'll work it though.

The Jacksons played West Holts didn’t they? Wouldn’t she also?

hmmmm... more like a whisper on the wind than playing...

[Ayrshire Chris]

As a fellow Scot can I use the expression utter pish, to describe Lorraine’s comments. Maybe she is playing but not a headliner

This is a great example of how celebrities don’t give a shit about the difference between “playing” and “headlining”, it’s just something new to say to while away the hours of inane chatter.

I left the house for work this morning to Piers Morgan ripping into Jermaine Jackson about MJ being a nonce and now this nugget drops?

What is happening!

Janet is a massive star and anything other than headlining wouldn't make sense to me (when we've already got the sunday legend locked in). That said, I've got one of her dvds and it's obvious she's miming along. I don't think glastonbury would invite the scrutiny no matter where the placement.

Interesting newsmaking in the light of a social media swell about her brother. Might just be easy PR from the jacko camp.

She hasn't got the current mainstream appeal to headline, like Stormzy, or the massive following in this country due to hugely successful albums like Radiohead and not a huge heritage act that grants them automatic headline status like The Stones. Vast majority of headliners fall into at least one of these categories, usually 2, Janet doesn't fall into any. As has been said 3rd down on the Pyramid after Kylie makes the most sense.

did you not see Ellie Goulding  shouting at everyone like an over enthusiastic aerobics instructor?

They are.

I'd rather Janet any day, but preferably neither as headliner.

 Would be one of them Ellie Goulding into Beck scenarios I guess. Then again apparently Janet Jackson is shit too.

Hope she does Loser - (Beck Cover) (Without Beck).

Janet 's definitely got her share of  bangers up her sleeve. Escapade is still a jam.

Trying really hard to think of a JJ song.... There was one with a video in a fairground, about 20 years ago..... I liked that one.

My favourite JJ song is "could bastille be there"
