Eagle-eyed Glastonbury fans have speculated on who could join Dua Lipa on stage ahead of her headlining set at the annual festival at Worthy Farm. With rumors swirling about special guests, one fan theorized that a major British pop group, Girls Aloud, could be making an appearance based on the length of Dua’s set compared to her usual tour schedule. The fan pointed out that Girls Aloud currently have a gap in their touring schedule on Friday evening, leading to excitement and anticipation among fans for a possible surprise collaboration. Girls Aloud, consisting of Cheryl, Nadine Coyle, Nicola Roberts, and Kimberley Walsh, are currently on a 30-date arena tour, marking their first performances together in over 11 years.

With speculation heavy on if the star will bring out any special guests, one fan has theorised that a major British pop group could be coming out to support her.
Picking up on two clues, the hardcore music fan noticed that Dua is currently scheduled to play Glasto for one hour and 45 minutes.
That puts the set approximately 15 minuets longer than her current touring schedule leading to rumours she will be accompanied by a very special guest on the big night.
The rumour mill has now been sent into overdrive with fan theories that pop icons Girls Aloud will take to the stage alongside the hitmaker.
Cheryl, Nadine Coyle, Nicola Roberts and Kimberley Walsh are currently nearing the end of their mammoth 30-date sell out arena tour, The Girls Aloud Show.
It is the first time the group have performed together in over 11 years and the first as a four since the tragic passing of Sarah Harding in 2021.
Currently enjoying a week-long residency at The O2 Arena, a gap in their touring schedule on Friday evening has led the eagle-eyed fan to make the connection.
Taking to X, formerly Twitter, they said: “Wild speculation: Dua Lipa’s Glastonbury set time is 1h45m. Seems kinda long?
“According to setlist.fm, so far this tour her shows have been more like 1h30m.
“Does she have a surprise planned? Guests maybe? Who? Could be anyone, though I note Girls Aloud have a gap.”
Get in shape like Dua Lipa as star lifts the lid on gruelling diet and fitness regime
One fan seemed excited at the thought as they said: “Dont get my hopes up.”
Before another added: “Interesting!! I am definitely expecting a surprise or two from her!”
Girls Aloud were originally touted as potential headliners for the festival when they confirmed their reunion however it is believed that scheduling conflicts prevented a performance from going ahead.
Dua recently opened up about her health and lifestlye and how she manages to maintain it whilst touring and gearing up for her big Glasto performance.

The seven-time Brit Award winner chatted with Nick Grimshaw and Angela Hartnett on the latest episode of their podcast Dish From Waitrose earlier this month.
Nick asked Dua: “What is life like for your now? Are you like ‘I’m an athlete, I’m in the zone’?”
“One thousand per cent,” Dua replied.
“It’s like rehearsals, no drinking, working out, just back-to-back preparing for all the shows to come,” the 28-year-old said.
“Also, I haven’t done a proper tour show for a year so I’ve got to get my stamina back up before I go into festivals.”
This involves “running, dancing, singing, all at the same time, to make sure I can hack it once the adrenaline hits as well”, the singer explained.
