Olivia Rodrigo wowed in a pair of Union Jack hot pants as she shared her ‘love’ for England during her headline set at Glastonbury on Sunday night.
The pop star, 22, put on a show-stopping performance on the Pyramid Stage as she closed the festival at Worthy Farm in the daring number which she teamed with fishnet tights and a graphic T-shirt.
During her energetic set, Olivia paused to express her love for a variety of British foods as she gushed over Marks and Spencer sweets.
She said: ‘One thing you should know about me is f***ing love England, I love England so much. It’s bands like the Cure that first got me acquainted with England but now that I’m older I have so many things I love about England.
The good 4 u hitmaker, who is dating British actor boyfriend Louis Partridge, also 22, revealed her greatest loves for the country and gushed that she ‘really loves English boys’.
She continued: ‘I love pop culture, I love that nobody judges you for having a pint at noon it’s the best. I love English sweets from M&S and Collin the Caterpillar.

‘True story I have had three sticky toffee pudding since arriving at Glastonbury so safe to say I love English food.
‘As luck would have it, I also really love English boys, I wrote this next song about getting to know a boy from England who loves beans on a jacket potato, I took all our little jokes and made a song called, So America.’
As she kicked-off her set, the Disney star cut a trendy figure in a white lace dress as she sang hit Obsessed, which featured on her 2023 Guts album.
Olivia said: ‘How are we doing tonight, Glastonbury? Holy f****** s***, I don’t think I’ve ever seen so many people in my life. Guys, it’s the last night of the festival. Are you ready to have some fun?’
The chart-topping star’s set also featured performances of Ballad of a Homeschooled Girl, Vampire and Drivers Licence, the 2021 single that proved to be a turning point in Olivia’s music career.
The singer was later joined on stage by Robert Smith from the Cure.
Before her guest appeared on stage, Olivia said: ‘I’m so wildly excited about this next guest. He is perhaps the best songwriter to come out of England, he is a Glastonbury legend and a personal hero of mine.’
The duo then joined forces to perform a rendition of Friday I’m in Love, which appeared on The Cure’s 1992 album Wish.

Olivia – who previously appeared at Glastonbury in 2022, when she performed on the Other Stage – also did an incredible encore featuring, So American, All-American B****, good 4 u, and get him back!
The pop star – who changed into the eye catching Union Jack-themed hot pants for her encore – finished her show by adding: ‘Thank you so much, Glasto. This really is a dream come true! I’m so very grateful. Thank you!’
Fans rushed to X – formerly known as Twitter – to gush that Olivia was one of the ‘best performers’ of the weekend and applauded the Disney star for ‘silencing the haters’ after they claimed she didn’t deserve the headline spot.

‘Okay olivia rodrigo rightly deserved that headliner spot, what a show and at only 22 as well;
‘The way Olivia Rodrigo has proven (yet again) how she is easily one of the main pop girls in today’s world!! And on one of the biggest stages in the world;
‘Not even ashamed to admit it, that Olivia Rodrigo set was one of the best things I’ve seen this year at Glastonbury!;
’22 years old and headlining Glastonbury… what a f***ing gal you are miss Olivia Rodrigo proud of you’.
On Saturday, Olivia made sure she fully immersed herself in the festival spirit as she was spotted sat on top of her boyfriend Louis Partridge’s shoulders, singing her heart out to Common People during Pulp’s surprise set.
The pop-punk singer appeared in high spirits as she belted out the iconic lyrics, whilst waving her arms about.
Olivia kept it casual as she wore a black and white sleeveless vest, which she paired with leopard print shorts and a hunter wellies, with white over-the knee socks.
Despite trying her best not to stand out from the crowd one person who did spot her in the crowd was none other than Radio 1’s Greg James.

Olivia last performed at Worthy Farm back in 2022 on the smaller Other Stage and it is thought she has been brought in this year to appeal to a much younger audience
Taking to his Instagram story, Greg could be seen singing along with fellow Radio 1 DJ Huw Stephens.
As the pair sang along, videoing themselves and the crowd, Greg wrote over the top: ‘Watching Pulp with Olivia Rodrigo’.
He then panned the camera round where Olivia could be seen, just a stones throw away from him, with the crowd seemingly blissfully unaware of the headliner’s presence.
Greg, dressed in a Varsity style shirt, baseball cap and sunglasses, then subtly pointed to Olivia and jokingly asked his followers: ‘Who’s that?’
