    Rihanna is being lined up to headline the next Glastonbury Festival

    The 36-year-old singer has focused her attention on her family life and her other business ventures in recent years - but Rihanna is planning to make her long-awaited return to the music scene in 2025


    A source told The Sun newspaper's Bizarre column: "It's been a running joke how long Rihanna's ninth album has taken to be released, but finally the wait is almost over.

    "Over the years so many songs have been recorded with loads of different people, including Alesso and Diplo.

    "She has gone from pop to reggae to hip-hop and everything in between. But because she wants it to sound fresh, and because of where Rihanna is at in her life, practically everything was scrapped.

    "Some have been reworked but the majority was canned completely when she went back to the drawing board earlier this year.

    "Rihanna has been back in the studio for a while now and things are finally coming together."

    Rihanna is one of the best-selling artists in the world, but she hasn't released an album since 'Anti' in 2016.

    However, Rihanna is now eyeing up the possibility of embarking on a "giant tour" and she could even headline the next Glastonbury Festival, with the source revealing that it's "back on the table".

    The insider explained: "Historically, she releases her albums in the last few months of the year, but the slow pace of vinyl production means the release date will likely be later than she would have liked.

    "Either way, 2025 is set to be her year with a giant tour in the works with Live Nation and yes, Glastonbury is back on the table."
