The reason why in my mind the ship has sailed with Gaga headlining Glastonbury is because there’s been too many “good times” to book her and it just hasn’t happened. It makes me wonder whether Glasto HQ are really bothered with her or whether Gaga is really that bothered with Glastonbury. She’s not a killers style booking at all.

Hehe quoting me.

I feel like with the release of chromatica it has made me rethink why Gaga has been absent from Glastonbury.

You're wrong. I've just looked at her tour dates and she has never played in Europe over the Glastonbury weekend apart from 2009 when she played. I just think her tour dates have never aligned with the festival.

I think if Kendrick has dropped out then the first person to get a call up will be Jason Derulo. He's releasing his album this year.

I was totally hoping you’d start arguing with that.

I think it’s going to happen. Taylor Swift looks to be non-returning and I think they would be against replacing with an all-male group unless the options dictated that they had to. Lady Gaga wasn’t offended to replace Beyoncé at Coachella (albeit paid handsomely). Good time to do it.

Kendrick not on the Bilbao bbk 2021 line up, depsite being booked for 2020. Looking less and less likely by the day that he'll be at Glastonbury

BBK is hoping to add Kendrick to the lineup in the next couple of weeks, according to one of their Facebook comments. I think negotiations are taking a bit longer. 

Glastonbury, Open'er, Roskilde, Rock Werchter, NOS Alive, British Summer Time, BBK Bilbao, two Lollapaloozas, Open Air, Wireless among others is a big one to reschedule.

Gaga would definitely be just about an equal replacement to any of those in terms of my own excitement. I'd still rather Taylor, but Gaga comes pretty damn close.

If this year wasn't cancelled Gaga would surely have been one of the favourites for 2021 - new album is full of bangers to add to the ones she already had.  She would go down a storm on the Pyramid - it needs to happen soon.

Let's get Swift, Bey, and Gaga all headlining tbh

Throw Robyn, Dua Lipa, and Lana in there too.

So many festivals out there with majority male lineups, so why not switch things up and have a majority female lineup? Times are changing and you can either become history, or make it.

PC gone mad much?

Because it would be sexist to exclude men for reasons of so called equality.

Instead they should be excluded because they're generally very bad at making music.

How good would that be - it would be some party!

Would love to see it

Imagine a Sunday Pymild run of Diana > Lizzo > Gaga. It would stop wars

That lineup to me would be great. Regardless of a gender talking point those are fantastic artists that every lineup should aim to have.

Majority female line up? Yes. 

But let’s mix up styles a bit? 

Throw in Yeah Yeah Yeahs for a start.

Oh absolutely. They were amazing at APE two years ago. Karen O performing Lux Prima somewhere would be good too...

[Membi]

About Kendrick, BBK is saying that they are trying to rebook it and there is absolute predisposition. They are waiting for the tour to be reorganized and disclose details about other dates. 

[jparx]

Ah a glimmer of hope then. Just had a scroll through their Twitter and they seem optimistic about it. Dream headliner trio still with a chance of coming good 🤞

[Keithy]

Swifto will be back. KL is probably a risk as for him Glastonbury is 'just another festival'. Macca is hopefully just flipping over to 2021. Reckon he'll make the dates work.

Always thought Gaga was a 2021 headliner and reckon she will step in if a 2020 one drops out.

[CaledonianGonzo]

She knows it's not just another gig

[Matt42]

Gaga got another number 1 single!

There is the point though of scheduling around Glastonbury if you want to do it.

Personally at this point Gaga, Macca and Taylor would be perfect. 2 I've never seen and one I have but would again. The only thing against that is Fatboy on Other stage Friday night as that's going to be a party. It is also one of the only Other stage headliners I've been interested in seeing there...Rudimental was one but they only got that gig due to the previous years storm cutting it. Major Lazer was fun but I wasn't there for all.

Aye. If there's one show on the 2020 tour she will go out of her way to reschedule, it will be Glastonbury. She's also got a track record of doing one off shows with huge production, so that wouldn't an issue either. It's still on, until it's not.

[JSmurphy]

If Kendrick can't reschedule.. Ariana Grande tops my list of dream replacements.
