Kanye West can't get enough of the UK right now. After debuting "All Day" at the Brit Awards and performing a surprise show in London, 'Ye has been announced as the Saturday headliner for the 2015 Glastonbury Festival. Foo Fighters will headline Friday, and the Sunday headliner has yet to be announced. After all, Glastonbury is known for its diversity of acts—and a lot of people are very happy about this.
