Cher is reportedly in discussions about playing the coveted 'legends' slot at Glastonbury next year.

The 78-year-old music icon has been in the business since the '60s, before the festival even began, but has never performed at Worthy Farm.

According to The Sun, however, Cher is now in "meaningful" talks about a spot on the bill in 2025, following the likes of Shirley Bassey, Dolly Parton and Diana Ross with a Sunday afternoon set.

"Cher is practically the legend of all pop music legends. She would be incredible," a source told the newspaper.

"It's been a long time coming but she is finally in meaningful talks with Glastonbury about playing the legend's slot.

"Everything is very much in the planning stages but Cher is hoping to play a handful of shows in the UK next year and Glastonbury could be one of them.

"The idea of a full scale tour just doesn't interest her anymore."

Next year's festival is scheduled to take place from June 25 to 29, 2025.
