Glastonbury has had a history of legendary performances since it began in 1972.
Kanye West's take on Queen's Bohemian Rhapsody may go down in history, but not necessarily for the right reasons.Â
The rapper attempted a rendition during his headline set, and it generally wasn't well received by music fans.

I actually fell of the sofa laughing when @kanyewest attempted to sing Queen. Until that point I hadn't realised it was a stand up routine.

Kanye West has a reputation for hubris. He famously interrupted Taylor Swift's VMA's victory speech to unilaterally award the trophy to Beyonce.
However, he has 21 Grammy Awards to prop up his ego, and every album he has released has sold more than 1 million copies in the USA alone.Â
