Country singer Dolly Parton sent the crowds wild when she headlined the Pyramid Stage on Sunday evening.
The sun came out as the American songstress took to the stage in an impressively sparkly silver outfit, and opened her set with a flawless rendition of Burnin' Love.
The singer flicked her heavily-backcombed mop as she drifted into a version of Alicia Keys' hit single, Girl on Fire
"Howdy! How are ya?" Dolly asked the crowd when she finished.

"It's such an honor and such a thrill to be here. I've been waiting a lifetime for this."
Dolly, 68, then went burst into an energetic rendition of Jolene, before performing her new single, Blue Smoke.
In between hits, Dolly told her fans little stories about her life, her lovers and her music.
The country singer then whipped out a saxophone and performed a short solo for the crowd.

"I wanted to do something special for ya'll," she said.
But Dolly topped her saxy performance by writing a song especially for Glastonbury.
"We just can't get enough of the mud and the music," she screeched.
Dolly then moved on to sing 9-5, and was delighted to hear the audience singing back to her.

Then she brought Bon Jovi guitarist Richie Sambora on stage for her encore - and the duo sang Lay Your Hands on Me.
Dolly finished her set with her classic, I Will Always Love You.
Earlier in the day, Dolly, who was clearly excited about her headline gig tweeted: "It’s almost that time! We’re about to go LIVE at @Glastofest, and you can watch my performance right here! :)"

The domestic violence case between Amber Heard and Johnny Depp is getting messier by the minute, and now they're dragging other people in the midst of their conflict. Depp apparently accused his wife of cheating on him with Billy Bob Thornton back in 2015, but the actor has completely denied all allegations. 'Our Brand Is Crisis' star Billy Bob Thornton has branded the suggestion that he slept with Amber Heard during the production of their latest movie 'London Fields' as 'completely false' according to reports from TMZ . The story is that he 'never socialized with Amber off set, other than a cast dinner', and adds that he had no on-set contact with her either, other than in a professional capacity. Of course, in the movie, their character's are close; it follows the story of a manipulative young woman named Nicola Six (Heard) who strings along three men including a writer named Samson Young (Thornton) in a bid to bring about her own murder.
