Prince pulled out of Glastonbury talks, Eavis blames social media rumours

Glastonbury boss Michael Eavis has confirmed that Prince had been in discussions about headlining this year's festival.

Eavis was questioned about Prince's absence by fashion designer Henry Holland in an article published by The Guardian.
Eavis said: "We wanted him to play, and it got to the point where his people were talking to us about him doing it, but before he confirmed he got really upset because he thought we had advertised that he was playing.

"We hadn't, but with social media, rumours get everywhere, and one of those rumours was ...was coming. So he didn't want to do it in the end.

"All the social media chit-chat now about who might be playing really doesn't help us."
