Rihanna has expressed the wish to perform at the Glastonbury festival, like Jay-Z in 2008. It is rumored that she will headline V Festival and may perform at Glastonbury in the summer.
In an interview with Q magazine, Rihanna said, “I know since Jay-Z played they are open to a lot more R&B. And ‘Umbrella’ would be the perfect song for that place too,” adding that although the festival goers are more interested in rock, she thinks she could impress them.
The Barbadian-born singer gushed, “I’d love to play Glastonbury. I have heard so many things about what happens there. I love rock music. I love Kings of Leon and The Prodigy. [. . .] But the music is awesome. I like the more traditional rock bands, too: Aerosmith and Bon Jovi. I think I could rock the stage at Glastonbury, no question.”
