Are Fontaines D.C. big enough to headline Pyramid Stage?

Are Fontaines D.C. big enough to headline Pyramid Stage?

I think that Fontaines will definitely be at Glastonbury 2027. I immediately thought Other Stage Headliners but could they do Pyramid?

They have a few hits: Jackie Down The Line, I Love You, Favourite, Starburster. And I do think they are quite culturally impactfull.

I can see maybe Friday night headline.

What about Chaka Khan for legend slot 2027?

I feel like this would be great! So many timeless hits: "Ain't Nobody", "I'm Every Woman", "Like Sugar". The perfect funk, disco, soul legacy act.

Rumor was that she was going to do a few years ago but was doing her Meltdown Festival instead.

Only thing is that is she big enough?

I was listening to Sidetracked - the podcast that Annie Mac and Nick Grimshaw do and Nick said that he knew one of the Headliners.... Ever since I listened, I've been trying to work who it could be?

Then I realize it could be someone that his boyfriend works with as he is a choreographer and does stuff for pop shows.

I know he has worked with Lily Allen and FKA twigs recently but these two aren't big enough to headline.

But an up and coming popstar has just started her world tour and Nick Grimshaw posted videos from one of the shows with his boyfriend who was in the sound / tech bit and looked like he was working or doing something involved with the show.

This person is OLIVIA DEAN...

Now personally, I wouldn't bothered about Olivia but I think its a very big possibility considering this and how rapidly she has grown. She would be the perfect up and coming pop act maybe for like the friday night on the Pyramid Stage.
