Huge American pop star set to perform at Glastonbury as festival aims to sign more female headliners

POP princess Olivia Rodrigo is set to perform at Glastonbury again.

The US singer, 21, has been invited to the Worthy Farm festival for a second time next summer after her debut two years ago.

Olivia, whose albums have both hit No1 in the UK and US, has ­rescheduled Manchester tour dates for the Monday after the Somerset festival, freeing up her schedule for a potential Pyramid Stage show.

A source said: “Organisers are keen to get more high-profile female performers topping the bill after being criticised in the past for it being a male-heavy event.”

On Friday Olivia blew kisses to fans at the premiere of her Netflix concert movie Guts in Los Angeles.

She also features on the cover of the new edition of Billboard magazine.

When Olivia, whose hits include Good 4 U and Vampire, was last at Glastonbury she had Brit singer Lily Allen as a surprise guest.

Organiser Emily Eavis previously admitted she is striving for a gender balance in the line-up.

She said: “Unless you consciously change and address it, then it will stay the same.”

Ed Sheeran and Harry Styles may also play at Glastonbury next year, before it takes a break in 2026.
