Billie Eilish has sparked rumors over the weekend by sharing a selfie of her sporting a Glastonbury festival hoodie with ‘Glastonbury Festival, Worthy Farm’ written across it. The Lost Cause singer appears to be performing at the world-famous music extravaganza in Somerset, South West England next year, after using the caption, ‘2022.’
The 19-year-old superstar recently confessed that she had ‘no idea’ Glastonbury
was ‘even a thing’ until after she played the festival. However, the Bad Guy hitmaker who grew up in Los Angeles – played The Other Stage in 2019, and admitted she wasn’t aware just how big a deal it was to play the legendary festival when she got the invite.
She then said, “I feel so embarrassed because I had no idea Glastonbury was
even a thing. I was like, ‘What’s that?” she added, “I didn’t know it was a big deal until after I played it. Everyone was like ‘oh my God, you played Glastonbury’ and I was like ‘Yeah, so?” She continues, “And then I realized. I am a little uncultured baby. It was such an honor, I mean, come on. Dude, the crowd was
unbelievable. Those moshpits? Oh my God. The crowd was great.”
Glastonbury was canceled for a second year this summer, due to the
ongoing Covid pandemic. A statement released through the official Glastonbury Twitter page reads, “With great regret, we must announce that this year’s Glastonbury Festival will not take place and that this will be another enforced
fallow year for us. In spite of our efforts to move heaven & earth, it has become clear
that we simply will not be able to make the festival happen this year.
We are so sorry to let you all down.”

of you with deposits, and we are very confident we can deliver something
