If she wasn’t booked for a sub position in 2020 then I really doubt they’ve managed to get her for 2021 now that she’s the biggest star in the world. I don’t think she’ll be there - maybe 2022 when she has a new album out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe not overall, but in terms of current hype with all the kids, then probably yeah. I really don’t see her subbing either way. She was headlining every festival she was booked for this year and she’s only gotten bigger. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aj6658 Posted November 26, 2020 Report Share Posted November 26, 2020 Personally I'm not a fan of one album Headliners. It can work and it has in the past but i think you need to earn it with more than one successful album. Also i dont think Glasto panders to artist A has more listens that artist B on Spotify. Its not just about that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy0808 v5 Posted November 26, 2020 Report Share Posted November 26, 2020 (edited) What’s this Big Willy news then? edit; just to chime in. I think Billie single album (second album due) headlining is a different beast to someone like Stormzy. Although she is bigger than he is, not in terms of British culture which is what the Stormzy booking was down to. I don’t think Billie has the wider appeal to the masses who may attend just to see, I think she’s more of a marmite act with people who are indifferent to her.

I agree and her album is all I listened to for weeks when it first came out but even I would easily be lured elsewhere, and I have never seen her live. I also don't understand where this one album is coming from, she does have another which contains her greatest song, Ocean Eyes. Still, headliner no but put her as a sub and I am more likely to be there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Such a strong trio for me. In all honestly the reason why I have that twitter account is because the opinions of glasto twitter goers are quite different from efestival opinions. I think it’s quite interesting to see the reaction to different announcements on both sides. Kendrick was one of the highest rated headliners here (I think when a poll was done here). But he’s not getting many votes on twitter. Paul has steadily held 50% off of the votes, but has gone down a bit as some more people have been voting Swift. that’s my CNN reporting but I find it interesting how broad glasto’s audience is. It’s healthy to look outside of efestivals for glasto opinions! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually think its a really bad song but I like how versatile she sounds on it (the different vocal takes she has during the verses are great, too bad the hook is ded) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But its not like Billie popped out an album out of nowhere and suddenly got to asked to be a headliner - shes been around for a fair while now (Ocean Eyes was what 2015/2016?).
