While the news of Muse’s appearance were confirmed at the beginning of the month, Adele’s announcement came in last night, made by the singer herself. She revealed during a show last night she’d be playing the UK’s biggest outdoor festival for the first time.
“Don’t tell anyone I told you,” she said to the London crowd. “I think it’s a secret.”
The Glasto team quickly took to Twitter to confirm the news.

For anyone who isn’t happy about this year’s not-all-too-unexpected combination of headliners, Queen Adele’s already got something to add, “To the people who say I am too boring to headline, you’re more fucking boring for moaning about me headlining.”
