MADONNA is in advanced talks to headline Glastonbury, The Sun can reveal.
The singer, 65, has never performed at the event and insiders say her team are plotting what would be one of the festival’s biggest ever performances.
A source said: “Negotiations are well underway between Glasto organiser Emily Eavis and Madonna’s manager Guy O’Seary.
“Both teams are keen to make it happen and striking a deal shouldn’t be a problem.
“Emily was blown away watching Madonna perform in London and is desperate to get her on the Pyramid Stage next year.”
Emily wrote on Instagram: “She’s back! Incredible.”
Fans were convinced it was a sign that Madonna will be at Worthy Farm next year.
The pop queen kicked off her Celebration Tour last weekend with sold-out shows at the capital’s O2 Arena.
Emily — the daughter of Glastonbury founder Michael Eavis — faced criticism that this year’s festival was headlined by male acts Elton John, the Arctic Monkeys and Guns N’ Roses.
She said: “This year, we did have a female headliner, and she unfortunately had to pull out . . . it changes all the time.
“But next year it’s looking like we’ve got two female headliners, so fingers crossed.”
Taylor Swift was thought to have pulled out over a change in plans.
According to its website, Glastonbury will take place from June 26 to 30, 2024.
Tickets go on sale next month.
In July, The Sun revealed Coldplay are in talks to star at next year’s festival after last topping the bill in 2016.
Madonna wraps up her 78-show tour next April leaving plenty of time to rest and then prepare for Glastonbury.
