Diana Ross pulls in epic crowd as she stuns in white for Glastonbury performance

Diana Ross pulled in what appeared to be one of the biggest crowds Glastonbury has ever seen as she performed on the Pyramid Stage on Sunday afternoon.

The 78-year-old singer looked incredible as she burst onto the stage to her hit track I'm Coming Out wearing a stunning white dress and a matching feather headpiece.

As the sun shone down on the massive sea of festival goers, Diana belted out various tunes by The Supremes including Baby Love and My World Is Empty Without You.

When she addressed the crowd, she told them: "Everybody that's here and everybody that's watching on global television around the world, I want you to know how grateful I am for this life.

"I love the idea of singing during the day when I can see into your eyes, I don't like singing in the darkness," she continued, before describing the experience as "so beautiful, so wonderful".

"There's been so many blessings and I wanna share them with you," she said, before singing some tracks from her latest album.

Music fans tuning in at home couldn't believe the size of the crowd at Worthy Farm, and took to Twitter to comment.

One person posted: "Crowd looks massive for Diana Ross #Glastonbury."

Later on in her set, Diana delighted the crowd when she performed a cover of Gloria Gaynor's I Will Survive.

Her slot comes after Sir Paul McCartney headlined the Pyramid Stage on Saturday night.

The Beatles legend surprised fans by bringing Bruce Springsteen and Foo Fighters frontman Dave Grohl on stage with him to perform a few tracks.
