I'm not saying it's a given but I also don't think it would be "hijacking". It's not like it's not on topic—she's there to speak about women in music, as the organiser of a festival which last year made headlines for having an all-male line-up, which she's spoken about at length, and has also spoken about it in the context of this year's line-up. I also feel like we all assume everyone is as invested in the line-up of Glastonbury festival as us, to the point that if she mentioned a couple of names playing the whole room would erupt into chatter and applause and stop listening to anything else instead of just nodding and going "ah nice".
