It seems that Britney Spears may have insinuated a potential joint performance with Elton John at the Glastonbury festival this weekend.
Elton, the 76-year-old music legend, is slated to take the stage at the Pyramid Stage on Sunday, and his husband David Furnish previously alluded to the possibility of four surprise guests joining him for the event.
On Thursday, the 41-year-old pop star, famous for her hit Baby One More Time, shared an image on her social media account of an apple carved into what appears to be the St. George’s flag. Moreover, she captioned the post with three Union Jack emojis, likely fueling further speculation and rumors.
The artist also posted an image of a McDonald’s meal with additional Union Jack flags, further teasing their potential collaboration.
Britney had previously collaborated with Elton on their 2022 song Hold Me Closer, marking her first release since her 13-year conservatorship ended.
During an interview in September of last year, Elton expressed his desire to “boost Britney’s confidence” and expressed hope that their duet would serve as a catalyst for her to create new music.
He added that he was “so happy for her, because it’s got her back to what she’s famous for, being a singer and an artist.”
The buzz around the potential joint performance between Britney Spears and Elton John at the Glastonbury festival continued to grow. Fans eagerly awaited the surprises that awaited them, fueled by Britney’s teasing social media posts featuring patriotic symbols and references. The previous collaboration between the two artists had already showcased their musical chemistry, and fans were excited to see them unite once again on stage. The anticipation reached a peak as the festival approached, with music enthusiasts eagerly counting down the days until they could witness this highly anticipated and potentially iconic performance.
