A British pop superstar has ruled herself out of headlining Glastonbury 2021.
Ellie Goulding said she has what it takes to top the bill at the legendary event one day, but is willing to wait for the opportunity.
Speaking to The Sun, she said: "I’ve headlined at so many festivals, but I think at some point it’s your time, and I just don’t think it’s my time.
"But I think it will be in the future. I’m convinced I’ve got a lot more in me to go, so maybe in another ten years. I would always put on a good show.
"I always do my very best and my performances are renowned for being pretty energetic.
"I think I could hold the crowd."
As well as playing down her chances of headlining Glastonbury 2021, Goulding also came out with fighting talk amid a drive for more female top acts at festivals.
Reading and Leeds Festival came under fire this week for announcing six headliners for its events next August - all of whom are male.
Goulding, who has sold 100 million singles and had a third No1 album with Brightest Blue in July, performed on the Pyramid Stage in 2016 but not as a headliner.
She was not far off the top spot, though, playing before Saturday night headliners Coldplay.
"I’ve worked my way up at Glastonbury, from the John Peel Stage to the Other Stage to the Pyramid Stage," added the 33-year-old.
With her tour due to start next April, there will still be plenty of chances to see her live.
