This has to be the least likely of any rumour I’ve seen on here. As far as I know there’s never been a comedian on the Pyramid, even in a lower slot. Don’t think this is happening.
But it's not necessarily a question of fairness, is it? There's only going to be three headline slots and Glastonbury are going to fill them with who they believe is best for them and available at that moment in time.
If it is indeed Sam Fender, Olivia Rodrigo and The 1975 who they've asked - and by our collective reckoning, one of those wasn't the automatic pick - then the bookers still clearly have the faith in the model and their options. There's acts who've done it before who would bend over backwards to top the bill again at the drop of a hat, and if EE and company have decided those three are who they want, then that's that, I'd say.
As we've said plenty of times on here, it's all subjective.
