Glastonbury performer hit with miming accusations as BBC viewers slam set as worst they've ever seen
A GLASTONBURY headliner has been hit with a slew of "lip syncing" accusations after some fans were less than impressed with their set. The Apple hitmaker, 32, was alleged to be "miming to her own records" as they cut a sizzling figure on The Other Stage on Saturday. 6 6 6 Brit-award winner Charli XCX certainly looked the part for her time in the spotlight at Glastonbury 's Worthy Farm, donning a black leather crop top and matching hotpants. She completed her look with dark thigh-high boots and a pair of sunglasses despite the night-time surroundings, styling her hair into waves over her shoulders. Charli opened her set with a quip of " you ready" before launching into hit 365 before following up with 360. She rattled through 17 tracks before wrapping up shortly before midnight yet despite the songstress' fashion credentials - and signature green brat backdrop screen with flashing lights - some were less than impressed. They accused her of miming and suggested an excessive use of autotune in tracks such as I Might Say Something Stupid. After watching the set from their sofas on the BBC one took to X to write: "Just miming to her own records." A second put: "Headline act at #Glastonbury2025 #Glasto is miming. Absolutely terrible," as a third wrote: "Charli XCX miming her way thru every song at Glastonbury, her mic only used for the odd 'Come On' shout. Live should be live." One then put: "Is @charli_xcx lip syncing." Another confessed: "Will NEVER understand the Charli XCX hype. Either miming, auto tune or talking." A fan then posted: "Has Charli XCX sung a single lyric yet?" Pulp takes swipe at Charli XCX during surprise Glastonbury performance Yet others loved the party vibe the beauty brought to Glasto. One mused: "Loving that Charli xcx and the 1975 have got all middle aged men in tears this weekend, can't wait for Olivia Rodrigo!!" Another wrote: "Dude… Charli XCX was f**king class." One then put: "How cool is Charli xcx" Glastonbury 2025 - confirmed acts so far TICKETS to the 2025 festival sold out in just minutes before some of the acts were even confirmed. Here is who has been confirmed so far. Confirmed headliners: The 1975 will take to the Pyramid Stage on Friday. Neil Young will headline the festival for the second time after his last set in 2009 on Saturday after RAYE makes her return. Charli xcx will headline the Other Stage on Saturday night. On Sunday, Olivia Rodrigo is due to belt out her hits for her first appearance while Rod Stewart will perform in the legends slot. More acts to appear on the Other Stage include Loyle Carner and The Prodigy. Doechii will make her Glastonbury debut on the West Holts Stage on Saturday night. Other names confirmed include Noah Kahan, Alanis Morissette, Gracie Abrams, Busta Rhymes, Lola Young, Brandi Carlile, Myles Smith, En Vogue, Amaarae, Cymande, Shaboozey, Osees and Gary Numan. The Sun has gone to Charli's reps for comment. SHOCK SWIPE Prior to her set, Charli faced an unexpected calling out from secret "Patchwork" act Pulp. The Britpop icons, fronted by Jarvis Cocker, had ramped up speculation for their set by not appearing on the line-up – instead choosing to go by a mystery name for a secret set. However, it had long been speculated it was actually Pulp, with piece of their equipment appearing backstage seeming to give the game away. At 6.15pm, the Pyramid stage filled with nearly 100 people dressed in black and white ponchos as the band was finally revealed. Taking a swipe at Charli XCX, who is headlining the Other Stage later tonight, a screen behind the band flashed the words "Are you ready for.... Pulp Summer." The message was a direct reference to the 'Brat Summer' Charli celebrated last year thanks to her smash-hit album. 6 6 6
