So, Basement Jaxx have been confirmed as the last minute replacement for Kylie Minogue at this month's Glastonbury Festival. Kylie, of course, was forced to pull out of her Sunday night headline slot following her breast cancer diagnosis.
Kylie herself reportedly asked if Basement Jaxx, who have enjoyed huge success recently with their Singles Collection album, could precede her on the Glastonbury bill, so it is perhaps apt that they should now take her place.
As previously reported, there were initially rumours that the Scissor Sisters had been asked to fill the slot, but they denied ever being asked. It then seemed likely the Killers would be moved up the bill, but they reportedly insisted they were not yet established enough to play the prestigious Sunday night slot.
The festival's organisers also announced yesterday the addition of Primal Scream to the Pyramid Stage's Sunday night line up.
