    It is a big deal to be a headliner for the iconic London music festival, Glastonbury.

    Over the past years, there have been truly monumental performances from the likes of U2, Coldplay, Beyoncé, David Bowie, Radiohead, Arctic Monkeys, The Rolling Stones, and the list ranking Glastonbury’s greatest headliners goes on…

    This year, everyone’s favourite ‘Bad Guy’ is set to make history as the youngest ever solo headliner to play at Glastonbury.

    Billie Eilish is not only young but female, which even now in the 21st century is groundbreaking.

    The first female headliner was Adele in 2016.

    The 20-year-old singer/songwriter will top the bill this weekend on the Pyramid Stage, alongside Sir Paul McCartney and Kendrick Lamar.

    “It’s a serious once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to be asked to go to and to do. And I’m constantly feeling like I’m undeserving of everything, and I think that’s a good thing,” IOL reports Eilish as saying with a mouth full of humble pie:

    “But first of all, it makes you doubt everybody because you’re like, “Why would you choose me?” But with that being said, that’s why I’m even more excited about it and stoked to be the youngest headliner ever.”

    The BBC notes how Eilish had some trouble performing at Glastonbury for her debut at a jam-packed Other Stage in 2019:

    But the star has been practising hard – busy with a sold-out, six-show run at London’s O2 Arena, where she’s been playing ‘Happier Than Ever’, her second album – and so this Glastonbury gig should be off the charts.

    If Eilish feels the urge, she might dress her backing dancer body double up again so that she can walk around the festival without being hounded by fans, similar to what she did at Coachella this year:

    “I had a body double, one of my dancers. We got a black wig and we put buns in it and we gave her a mask and sunglasses.”

    “Everybody thought it was me. I put on a big black coat and a traffic vest, hood, and glasses.”

    Speaking during her 2019 debut at Glastonbury she did say she would really love to be a spectator at the fun festival.

    Look out for her all hooded up in the crowd if you’re not one of the fans fainting during her performance.

    Yeah, that happens.

    She had to a concert to a halt after several fans passed out in London two weeks ago, “overwhelmed at being in their idol’s presence”.
