The final act on the Glastonbury 2025 Pyramid Stage was Olivia Rodrigo, who performed her medley of tunes to a sold-out crowd at Worthy Farm.

Olivia Rodrigo gave a memorable performance to cap off this year’s Glastonbury. The American was in awe of the sheer volume of people who had seen her perform on the Pyramid Stage when she took to the stage wearing a short white corset dress.

Olivia showcased her vocal prowess with flawless vocals and impressive piano playing on some of her biggest hits, including Drivers Licence, Vampire, and Traitor. Fans were gobsmacked by the surprise guest appearance, though.

The American singer songwriter welcomed singer-songwriter Robert Smith to perform a double of duets. And it was their performance of Friday I’m In Love that had fans gasping.

One enthralled user wrote: “Jfc I didn’t realize I needed Olivia Rodrigo to sing Friday, I’m in love so much.” Another claimed that “Robert Smith’s performance of Friday’s I’m in Love with Olivia Rodrigo is a true Glastonbury moment.”

A third person said, “I need to go to an OLIVIA RODRIGO’S CONCERT,” while another claimed, “I need to go to OLIVIA RODRIGO’s concert and do Friday I’m in love was not on my Glasto bingo card but wow.”

Her epic performance comes after another recent gig in London at BST Hyde Park left fans stunned with another huge surprise performer. On Friday, the Drivers Licence singer shocked fans as she welcomed Ed Sheeran to the stage with her.

She sent fans wild as she introduced him as “one of the best songwriters of all time”. It’s far from the first time the Shape Of You singer has turned up at someone else’s show, having previously joined the likes of Taylor Swift and Stormzy.

And he praised Olivia after the show. He continued to be a fan of Olivia’s on Instagram since his first appearance at the beginning of 2021. For me, neither of these albums have any skips. I support the right things.

She hit me and asked to sing The A Team with her, which was a huge hit, but I’m not going to watch the show anyway. It’s honor and privilege to be playing that song to new fans with one of the brightest stars of the next generation as it approaches its 15th year, and I can recall playing it to rooms without anyone there in 2010″.

Prior to her huge closing set, Olivia spoke to the XM CBS channel in the United States. She explained how she sees Morissette and No Doubt frontman turned solo artist Gwen Stefani as a great inspiration for longevity in music.

She expressed her love for Alanis. She is also very gracious. When I talk to her and talk to her, I think that’s how I want to live my life. She obviously got it right, in my opinion.

I really like the way Gwen manages to blend rock and pop in a really cool way. I admire her because she’s very risk-taking and adventurous. I don’t know, though, but who is to say? Tomorrow, let alone in five years, I’m not sure where I’m going to be.

She also made fun of a potential break from music soon. If there was a story in a movie that I thought would be particularly moving, “she said,” I would love to do that too. I’m open to it even though I’m not yet certain.

And he also wished Olivia luck before her Glastonbury performance, saying: “Rock Glasto headline Sunday @oliviaarodrigo, UK loves you x”
