Lady Ga Ga to play.

[bunter]

Heard a snippit today on XFM while channel surfing, somethin along the lines of an "eccentric madamouselle and her little monster's making an appearance at Glastonbury".

Now i'm no fountain of knowledge on the meat wearing muppet but is that no what she calls her fans or summit?

Anyway probably would be a bit of a laugh seeing her and cannae be any worse than bassey...

[Joshuwarr]

Would be phenomenal!

[adustlandfairytale]

She was okay at T in the Park except for Poker Face going on for ageeeees at the end. I actually sobered up while she was playing that song.

[Joshuwarr]

Her Glastonbury 09 performance was spot. When she strips down her songs its just wonderful. Like the Poker Face rendition and of course the beautiful Speechless.

[irons]

Good performer, cant sing for shit.

[LondonTom]

See I like Gaga, but I think her 'stripped down' version of Poker Face is pure self indulgent pretentious shite. Yeah you can play piano, get over it.

[bunter]

I wouldn't mind if she do the proper version of poker face as well as the piano version, seems just strange having the other one as well!

[Guest musiclove123]

I would be very excited if she was announced as being there this year-great fun and very catchy songs

[rexclark]

I for one don't believe anything Bunter says.

[Paul ™]

[glasto-worker]

Lets hope she does end up coming back - I missed her in 2009 as my shift clashed but if she is performing this year I will make certain that I do see her.

[thesecretingredientiscrime]

Saw her on her tour this year, was incredible.

[rischbrit]

Must admit i like the one that goes RRRRAAARRRRAAARARARAAA RUMARUMAMARAAAAAA GAGAOOOLALA ,I WANTCHA LOVIN AN A WANTCHA.................much better

[jimmyt]

I only hope the day comes soon when she can record her duet with Michael Jackson. There is nothing to like about this vacuous embodiment of 21st century celebrity obsession. Can't sing, can't dance, looks shit. She'll go a long way, tragically (and she should have been a kit-kat advert).

[rachbon]

i'd love it if she played.

if people don't like her, fair enough but to say she can't sing is ridiculous.

[rachbon]

Both my ears work.

She can't sing.

[jimmyt]

you mean you don't like her. that doesn't mean she can't sing.

[thesecretingredientiscrime]

No - If i'd meant to say that I didn't like her then I would have typed "I don't like her" but, in fact, what I meant to say was that she can't sing. I can see how this has confused you so let me try and furnish you with a little more information so that we're crystal.

She can't sing in tune or very well.

I appreciate that everyone should be allowed to try but it really is time that Gaga let some other tramp in bin bags have a go on the karaoke machine.

[jimmyt]

Most insults aimed at Gaga are understandable because music is personal opinion. Saying she can't sing in tune or very well is ridiculous, because she's whats musically known as pitch perfect. Listen to more of her music, try and get just the vocal tracks if the music bothers you that much, and you'll realise.

[rachbon]

Not on any of the live recordings I've seen or heard, she isn't.

You are right; music should be about personal opinions. I just don't believe that anyone, without Radio 1 and/or The Sun's influence, could possibly like the banal crap she churns out. People like her because they think she's cool and they'll drop her like a hot turd when she is no longer fashionable.

I recon she can sing. Pretty well. Not got a standout voice, but it's not her voice which she is know for.

Im not actually a massive fan, but just after 2010 I put a quid (33-1) on her to headline this year. Why?

1) She's one of the biggest pop stars/artists in the world.

2) She will have her second album dropping spring this year. She will dominate the charts all over summer and potential reach a career height around June.

3) Her live shows are meant to be pretty amazing. It is reported she makes 0 profit on her tours as they cost her so much to do.

4) She would bring a bit of diversity to the bill - U2/Coldplay/Pulp/Radiohead .. c'mon.

5) The publicity would be ridiculous, as people would go ape shit like with Jay Z.

6) She played before, and did a secret set as well hidden away in Glasto. That gives me the impression she enjoys the festival and hopefully gets what it's all about.

Reasons of course for her not doing it are huge -

1) See point 5 above.

2) Her stage shows require a huge wad of cash.

3) Trying to tell Beyonce she's billed below Gaga.

4) She's probably not going to draw as big as crowd as any of the safe bets.

I am pretty sure she won't headline. I think she's probably too big to play anywhere other than a headline slot though. Especially as there's like a million potential bands to headline the Other.

Elton John headliner, Gaga sub? Would be the campest thing at Glastonbury ever, potentially only rivaled by Kylie and Scissor Sisrters last year . Also about as likely as The Stones doing a secret Park gig.
