Kanye West will be one of the headliners at the upcoming Glastonbury festival but not everyone is happy with his performance. A petition has been launched to have West pulled from the Glastonbury lineup. Glastonbury will be taking place at Worthy Farm on June 24-28.
The petition is titled "Cancel Kanye West's Headline Slot and Get A Rock Band" and explains that West is an insult to music fans around the world. "We spend hundreds of pounds to attend glasto, and by doing so, expect a certain level of entertainment."
Contact Music added that 21,000 people have already signed the petition in support of pulling West. 21,000 people would make up about 15% of the attendees at Glastonbury.
The petition goes on to say, "Kanye has been very outspoken on his views on music....he should listen to his own advice and pass his headline slot on to someone deserving! Let's prevent this musical injustice now!"
Billboard reported that the Foo Fighters will also be headlining the event and that Taylor Swift has been rumored to be closing the festival.
