Chaka Khan and Shania Twain are both being tipped as the leading names to land the 2024 Glastonbury Legends slot. 

The I’m Every Woman star and the country-pop icon are believed to be in advanced negotiations to perform at the festival’s Sunday afternoon spot, sources tell The Sun’s Bizarre column. 

“Talks have been ongoing for months and months with both Chaka and Shania,” they say. “Organisers have left it far later than usual to nail down the festival’s three headliners and that has meant no decision has been made about who to choose for the Legend slot.

“But Chaka and Shania are top of the list, have each said they would be interested and are both keeping the date free. It would be an incredible honour for either of them — and the hits would please everyone.”

Shania previously admitted it would be a “dream come true” to bag the Glastonbury gig, telling the tabloid: “I’m not aware of it yet but wouldn’t that be awesome? I’m not sure where we’re at with that yet. 

“Obviously it would be a dream come true. It’s an incredible honour and I’ve always heard so much about it. It’s the thing. It would be extraordinary. I would do it in a heartbeat, so let’s see what happens.”

Meanwhile, Chaka will be in the UK over the summer for shows as she celebrates 50 years in music, including a 10,000 capacity concert at Blenheim Palace, Oxfordshire.
