Glastonbury 2024: Janelle Monae stuns despite thin crowd

Janelle Monáe performs on the Pyramid stage during day five of Glastonbury Festival 2024

Janelle Monae has wrapped up her Pyramid Stage performance at Glastonbury 2024 – check out fan reactions below.

On Sunday (June 30), Monae took to the Pyramid Stage shortly after Shania Twain for a powerful showcase of audio and visual excellence. She kicked off her set with ‘Float’ and ‘Champagne Shit’, decked out in flowers.

After an outfit change, Janelle Monae returned with bangers ‘Django Jane, ‘Q.U.E.E.N.’, Electric Lady’ and ‘Lipstick Lover’ among others.

Social media has reacted favourably to Janelle Monae’s set, with one X user writing: “Holy moly Janelle Monae can really sing”. See more reactions below.

However, some X users have pointed out that Monae was performing to a rather thin crowd, partially due to Avril Lavigne’s clashing set at the Other Stage and the England vs Slovakia match.

Janelle Monae’s Glastonbury 2024 setlist was:

‘Float’
‘Champagne Shit’
‘Django Jane’
‘Q.U.E.E.N.’
‘Electric Lady’
‘Lipstick Lover’
‘Pynk’
‘Yoga’
‘I Like That’
‘Make Me Feel’
‘Tightrope’

Still set to come this weekend are performances from SZA, The National, Two Door Cinema Club, Justice, Nia Archives, James Blake, Alvvays, Romy and more.

Coldplay‘s electric headlining set on Saturday scored them a four-star reviewLittle Simz‘s Pyramid performance marked her bid as a future headliner, while Camila Cabello turned in a chaotic performance.
