I thought there'd be a lot more given the perceived status. A quick search of "Glastonbury "Doja Cat" brings up about 20 to 30 tweets. I dunno, maybe if some sort of official announcement is made by the festival, there may be more of a reaction. Yeah tbh my friends didn’t know until I shared Doja’s tweet. As you say official statements travel further… Glastonbury won’t make one. I think in some strange way it’s similar to Aerosmith-gate. If you followed all the Glastonbury rumours/Twitter accounts you would know. But most people I spoke to had no idea they were in the frame.

stanh Posted May 22, 2022 Report Share Posted May 22, 2022 Completely with Matt on this, Doja was one of the only acts on the lineup that everyone within my friend circle wanted to see. As much as in this forum some might not be as fussed about her, she is one of the biggest names in her genre at the moment and definitely quite a big blow - a lot of people I know had only booked Wireless tickets to see her there as well. Will be interesting to see what they do to replace her, either bumping someone up, or booking someone else onto the lineup Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mardy Posted May 22, 2022 Report Share Posted May 22, 2022 Yeah, big loss to the festival. Glastonbury needs contemporary pop acts and they don't come much bigger currently than Doja Cat. Would have been a great set, and whoever they get as a replacement won't be as compelling and of the moment. Damn shame. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gfa Posted May 22, 2022 Report Share Posted May 22, 2022 Her first major UK show too / since breaking out. She played a few shows in 2019 but that was pre blowing up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt42 Posted May 22, 2022 Report Share Posted May 22, 2022 What I can see happening is Fri pyramid looks like this. Billie Eilish Sam Fender TBA (Harry Styles) Robert Plant & Alison Krauss Crowded House Rufus Wainwright Ukraine Choir Wolf Alice subbing Foals on the other stage.

maelzoid Posted May 22, 2022 Report Share Posted May 22, 2022 No discredit to Doja Cat, but short of losing one of the big 4, I can’t see the fest drafting in a replacement, they’ll just reshuffle the bill, which is not exactly weak this year. Maybe Olivia Rodrigo or Sam Fender get a bump? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt42 Posted May 22, 2022 Report Share Posted May 22, 2022 Most likely (occam’s razor) possibility Sam Fender moved to sub, Sunday other stage reorganised. People they could draft in (who are free that date - not ranked on likeliness) Harry Styles Dua Lipa Dave A$AP Rocky (wireless weekend after) Tyler the Creator (wireless weekend after) Florence + The Machine Stormzy Rock acts they could pick if they decide not to substitute with something similar Royal Blood Jack White Jorja Smith can’t do it - has a gig on the Friday. Thought that might be an interesting one to draft in. Shame. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
