Kylie
Minogue Too Busy For
Glastonbury
Kylie
Minogue
will not make her
long-rumoured appearance
at next year's
Glastonbury festival,
says organiser Emily
Eavis.
"It's
not going to happen,"
she said, adding that
the singer had "a lot of
touring up her
sleeve".
Earlier
this year, Ms Eavis's
father, Michael, said he
was "really hopeful"
that Kylie would
perform.
The
pop star pulled out of a
planned appearance at
Glastonbury in 2005 when
she was diagnosed with
breast
cancer.
She
returned to the stage in
Australia last month
with her critically
acclaimed Showgirl
Homecoming
tour.
The
final date of the
Australian leg took
place in Melbourne on
Sunday. The previous
night saw the singer
joined on stage by her
sister Dannii to perform
the hit single
Kids.
The
tour hits the UK on New
Year's Eve, starting a
run of seven dates at
Wembley Arena, followed
by a further six nights
in
Manchester.
But
Ms Eavis says Kylie
Minogue will be too busy
to join the Glastonbury
festival in
June.
"I
think if she was going
to do Glastonbury, she'd
rework her show and I
don't think it's going
to be possible in that
time frame," she
said.
She
also denied that The
Killers or Muse would
make headline
performances at the
festival.
"We've
got really good stuff
coming in. But there's
not going to be
dominating headliners,"
she said.
