Britney Spears ‘drops multiple clues’ she’s on her way to Glastonbury as one of Elton John’s ‘four special guests’
BRITNEY Spears has 'dropped multiple clues’ she’s on her way to Glastonbury as one of Elton John’s ‘four special guests’.
The singer, 41, who collaborated with the pop legend, 76, on Hold Me Closer last year, teased a live performance at the iconic festival with some very cryptic Instagram posts.
It comes after Elton's husband David Furnish revealed the Rocket Man hitmaker would be joined by no less than four collaborators on the Pyramid Stage.
Sending the rumour mill into overload, Britney shared a painting of an apple, of which the St George's flag had been carved into.
She inserted three Union Flag emojis into the caption and did the same with artwork of a McDonald's meal.
Elton's Sunday headline slot at Worthy Farm is gearing up to be the biggest show of the Glastonbury Festival.

The Sun recently revealed Hollywood A-lister Taron Egerton will be joining him on stage.
The Brit played Elton in Rocketman, the 2019 film biopic, and will be one of four special guests.
A source said: “Elton is going to give the performance of a lifetime at Glastonbury and has lined up some surprises for his fans at Worthy Farm. Taron will be coming out to sing alongside Elton after befriending him while making the film.
“The final plans are being kept a closely guarded secret but rehearsals are taking place and Elton has planned an entirely new set, different from the one on his tour, for the show.”

Elton’s husband David teased the performance earlier this week.
He told : “Four collaborators of his choosing. People he just thought, ‘I’d really like to do something with these artists at Glastonbury.' And that’s all I’m going to say. This one is very special. It’s not just another day in the office. It’s a different set-list, it’s a huge outdoor live festival.
“He’s got four different collaborators joining him on stage at different times, who I won’t name, sorry.
“So he’s done a lot of changes. (He has) A lot on his plate, so I think he’s anxious. But I think good anxious, healthy anxious.”
There are plenty of other stars who look likely to join him, perhaps Rina Sawayama or Years & Years, both of whom he has collaborated with in recent years, and Lady Gaga is godmother to his two sons.
