The pop legend finally played at Glastonbury, 14 years after her set was cancelled due to her cancer diagnosis in 2005.

Kylie Minogue held back tears when she performed on the iconic Pyramid Stage on June 30, 2019.

"In 2005 I was meant to be here," she told the crowd on the night. "Circumstances meant that I did not make it."
