Posted July 18, 20187 yr http://www.officialcharts.com/media/655047/glastonbury-female-legends-slot-2019-1100.jpg We're now just less than a year away from the return of Glastonbury, but who will be taking on the coveted Legends Slot for 2019? The iconic festival was rested in 2018 for its fallow year, but plans are in place for the next instalment, with co-organiser Emily Eavis recently explaining that tickets will be available from October 2018, with a line-up announcement soon after. Speaking on BBC Radio 2 earlier this month, Emily revealed that “we’ve done our first draft of the Pyramid Stage", which includes finalising the Legends Slot. The likes of Shirley Bassey, Dolly Parton, ELO and Lionel Richie have turned the slot into a phenomenon in the past, helping the latter two acts return to the top of the Official Albums Chart. While not confirming who 2019's legend is, Emily gave some clues: "I can’t tell you, but I’ll give you a clue: it’s a female. She is not British, but I can’t give you any more clues because it will get me into trouble.” Who should take to the Pyramid Stage? Let's weigh up some contenders. Kylie Minogue Kylie Minogue was meant to headline Glastonbury in 2005, but sadly had to pull out following her breast cancer diagnosis. While the Golden Australian made a cameo during Scissor Sisters' 2010 Pyramid showcase, she's yet to do a whole set of her own. Is 2019 her year, and will it be in the Legends Slot? Kylie told Press Association: "It would be amazing and very emotional to be standing there and doing what I didn't get to do all those years ago, for sure." (Source: Official Charts Company)
July 18, 20187 yr I think if it happens it would be sensational for Kylie when we consider the reason she didnt get to perform on that stage. For Kylie herself, i hope this does come to fruition.
July 18, 20187 yr Already confirmed to be female and not British so that's a good hint :) sorry I just read this in the article above Edited July 18, 20187 yr by SmileyKylie
July 18, 20187 yr It would be great for Kylie as I'm sure it's something she really wants considering the awful time she went through when she should have been on such a legendary stage.
July 19, 20187 yr So hope this happens - also the impact of headlining Glastonbury seem to be far reaching with acts getting a sales uplift afterwards (Dolly Parton nearly scored her first #1 album after headlining).
July 19, 20187 yr Ya it always brings a huge sales boost. For Kylie I think it will be very emotional for her
July 19, 20187 yr Highly emotional to start and then it will be a huge party. I would think Kylie will throw everything at the performances and make it one big enjoyable party that both she, her fans and the others there will remember.
July 20, 20186 yr If they didn't ask her back during the Aphrodite era, or the X one for that matte,r they won't do it now.
July 21, 20186 yr Author If they didn't ask her back during the Aphrodite era, or the X one for that matte,r they won't do it now. It's for the Legends slot though and Kylie would probably be considered too current for that slot back then. I could see it feasibly happening next year and certainly hope so!
July 23, 20186 yr Will they book Kylie and Madonna on the same bill ? Although nothing’s confirmed I wouldn’t have thought the organisers would do this . I personally would love it.
