To think that Kylie is bloody brilliant

Oh what I would do to look like that at 51!

And I don’t think I’ve ever seen such a big crown at Glastonbury (from the tv!)

Such universal appeal

Haven’t seen the Glastonbury footage but saw her live last year and it was amazing.

PeoniesarePink · 30/06/2019 19:29

She's incredible. I don't ever recall seeing that big a crowd for an afternoon set. She deserves it.

I know it’s dark for the headline bands but I’m still not sure even they have this many people.

Entertaining but not the best voice

AuntieMarys · 30/06/2019 19:32

Totally agree. Not a fan at all but she was great fun.
Especially when Nick Cave came on.

Yanbu. She’s beautiful!

She sounded terrible - but that’s what makes her so good! She still pulled it off!

I love Kylie and that was great.

Twitter seems to think much bigger crowds than usual for that slot?

No I wouldn't pay to watch someone who sings so badly. Also she was beyond annoying on the "voice'. I also think all the work she's had done on her face is giving her an odd look. Sorry.

Mumberjack · 30/06/2019 19:38

She was fantastic! People there will be talking about just how joyous it all was.

Flashinggreen · 30/06/2019 19:39

I like her, voice isn’t great but she knows how to put on a show.

Holycrapster · 30/06/2019 19:39

But where was Jason??

LikeDolphinsCanSwin · 30/06/2019 19:41

She always comes across as being lovely. Does anyone know her in real life - is she? Please don't shatter my illusions? Grin

Sounded awful on the radio. Marginally better with pictures on the TV. I get that she is a seasoned entertainer, but I don't like her singing. She's in tune, but it's not very pleasant to listen to.

RavenLG · 30/06/2019 19:42

She sounded awful. Personally I think the set was a bit boring but it’s really not my style of music. I’m sure being there in person it was a great atmosphere though.

YANBU

Kylie is the original showgirl- she really knows how to put on a show & entertain!

So what if her voice isn't up there with classically trained singers/better singers

She honestly has that certain appeal to mainly different which her made her so appealing and successful over a career that spans more than 30 years

I bloody love Kylie!

ChoudeBruxelles · 30/06/2019 19:42

It was a fantastic set. Ds asked who she was Shock now feel very old

Fairylea · 30/06/2019 19:42

Absolutely fantastic. I love her. I would love to look half that good at 51!

EdWinchester · 30/06/2019 19:42

I fast forwarded through it, her voice is weak and I don't like her songs. But I feel enormous sentiment and fondness for her and I bet it was great to be there.

EdWinchester · 30/06/2019 19:43

My 17 year old asked who she was!

TurquoiseDress · 30/06/2019 19:43

*many different people

Bitgold · 30/06/2019 19:44

She's a "pop princess". Good luck an' all. But living in a silly bubble of fun thats all! Nothing much more!

NoSauce · 30/06/2019 19:45

She looks amazing and comes across as really nice but imo has the worst voice ever. Embarrassing actually.

Lana1234 · 30/06/2019 19:47

That is not my type of music at all but I found myself really enjoying her performance I thought she was great fun 💃

Lalallama · 30/06/2019 19:48

I love Kylie. Not my usual style of music but I think she's bloody brilliant. I actually really like her voice. Plus just how uplifting the whole thing was. Really wanted her to come back on again at the end.

DD(10) just asked why people stand there and watch people singing. She doesn't seem to understand the concept of it at all! Confused
