This year’s festival will mark Dua Lipa’s first Pyramid Stage slot as Friday’s headliner, with the singer slated to perform a month after the release of her upcoming 11-track third studio album, Radical Optimism, which drops on May 3. Veterans Coldplay will topline Saturday night in their first Glasto since 2016, making history as the first group to headline the event five times; SZA will top the roster on Sunday night.

On X, Twain gushed about the booking, calling it “another jewel in my crown. I feel so honoured and so excited about this one! Thinking about what to wear already and tell me, what should we sing together?! Let’s make history with this ultimate dream performance!!” In an accompanying video, the “That Don’t Impress Me Much” singer said, “This is a dream come true! I have been asked about Glastonbury now for years and it’s finally coming together! I’m packing my wellies [rainboots] and my raincoat, and of course, my cowboy hat. So, I’ll see you in the beautiful Somerset countryside this summer.”

In This Season of Giving, Mariah Carey Shares Throwback Clip From 1994 Manifesting a Potential Christmas Classic One Day: ‘So Grateful’

MC only had to wait 25 years for her all-time holiday classic "All I Want For Christmas Is You" to hit No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100.

Mariah Carey is the undisputed Queen of Christmas. The pop singer has lorded over the holiday charts for the past six years with her ubiquitous wintertime classic “All I Want For Christmas Is You.” It seems hard to believe it now if you’ve been anywhere near a store since Halloween, but the yuletide favorite that was released in 1994 did not chart until 2000 and did not hit No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 until 2019, fully 25 years after it first hit our ears.

Now, as the holidays really ramp up, the best-selling Christmas song of all time in the U.S. seems like a no-brainer to top the charts every year. But on Tuesday (Dec. 9), MC gave thanks for how it all started in a throwback video she re-posted from a fan feed of an interview she did in 1994 in which she was asked if she hopes one of the songs from her first holiday album, that year’s Merry Christmas, might some day be as ubiquitous as such standards as “White Christmas” or “Rockin’ Around the Christmas Tree.”
