Glastonbury organiser Michael Eavis might just have let the cat - the cat in this case being one Kylie Minogue - out of the bag - the bag being, um, his mouth - by stating that the pop pixie is to headline his festival's Sunday night - said festival being Glastonbury... and we've come full circle.
The Mirror has quoted Eavis as follows:
"Kylie is definitely going to be the Sunday night headliner. We want her to do all the stuff she did on her Showgirl tour with the fairies and the trapeze. She's so Glastonbury. I'm worried it's too early for her but she's really keen. Her people said they don't even need a contract - a handshake is enough."
Eavis uttered the above at the Ivor Novello Awards on Thursday. He's said to have already booked all three headliners for the 2007 event, although no report-worthy clues have been dropped as to the identity of the other two.
If she's headlining on the Sunday
gives half the crowd a chance to beat the traffic, I guess.
Oh dear
Kylie. GREAT.
whilst loathe to slip from my usual good manners
who really gives a fucking shit (about kylie minoque, not the news story) - another reason not to go then clearly
fucking stupid bitch
and yes I chose my words carefully. Also another case of a loathsome artist having fans who are probably more loathsome than she is - if its possible
..
'Fucking stupid bitch'. How lovely.
can you explain please prole?
too bitter a vitriol pill to swallow there, but the doctor telling me why i need it will rejuvenate my efforts...
Prole...
...without exactly being the biggest Kylie fan in the world, was it the comeback from cancer or the fifteen years constantly entertaining in the pop market that makes her a 'fucking stupid bitch.'?
You moron.
...
I was going to write something middle-aged about how Glastonbury used to be that festival where good bands played.
...but I can't remember the last time I saw a Glastonbury line-up and thought about buying a ticket.
That's pretty middle-aged...
the other headliners
are Oneida and Part Chimp.
Oh well.
I'm going, but so what if she's headlining?
Have you seen the Leeds headliners this year for Friday? I'd rather watch the Zutons for four hours than those crumby bands.
Glasto has millions of bands playing, so I'll bet there's someone good on at the same time.
^^^
Yeah, but the other stages will hopefully make up for it, Lock Up, and Carling, so should be OK, touch wood.
glasto
i almost prefer it when the glaso line up is shit, less time spent tiring one's self out bouncing from stage to stage and more time seeing the random stuff elsewhere
not sure what all your problems are with this shocking outbreak?
she was asked before she got "ill", so it was always on the cards
you want something a bit party-ish on a sunday too otherwise you flag and bugger off early.
give me kylie, the foo fighters or the fucking red fucking hot fucking chilli fucking peppers fucks, and i know who i'll be drooling over...
oh come on wrighty
you heart my chemical romance really, don't you? i do.
radiohead
are also headlinging. yes.
You're all just
miserable bastards.
I'm gonna (try to) go to Glasto next year, and I'll go and see Kylie because she's ace. And she used to be in Neighbours!
I bet you lot were the miserable sods who didnt go and see Rolf Harris either. Shame on you for being so self-richeously dull.
snobby bastards
Why on earth do you have such vitriol for Kylie? It's fucking tiring to see the ammount of spleen vented everytime a genuinely popular popstar gets mentioned on here.
I got press tickets to see her on her show girl tour. Now, I'm not a huge fan, but my housemate loves her, so i took my housemate along. She loved it, and I was amazed to see someone put on a SHOW. It's so refreshing to see a concert that doesn't consist of four blokes looking mournful or pulling rock poses.
Yeah, it might not contain epic soundscapes, brutal crashing riffs or clever lyrics, but they're good pop songs, performed by a true performer.
Now get off your high horses please.
kylie
Well, I'm gonna go coz if i get to meet her i could be in with a chance of shaggin her innit! She's well fit and I've heard those aussie birds are well into the english, so I reckon I have a good chance of slipping her some solid british beef....oh yes. In the mud, and cow shit, and chips and tea for breakfast....maybe we could start a petition and get her to agree to an orgey of british beef on tiny twinkle toes australian booty....who's up for it!
sorry....
about the bad spelling, my hard on was in the way of my keyboard!
Erm...
that's quite all right, dear boy.
*runs away*
*hides*
Good ol Aussies
Guess she's missing the whole concert since her cancer bout
