The 1975 frontman Matty Healy broke down in tears on stage after his band headlined this year’s Glastonbury Festival.
In footage shared from the U.K. event via X on Friday, June 27, the musician, 36, became visibly emotional on stage at the end of a performance. He broke down in tears, dropping to his knees and placing his head in his hands and sobbed. Healy then looked up, exhaled and took a moment before standing back up.
The 1975 were one of three headliners for the three-day festival, which is currently taking place. The band closed out Friday night at the event while Neil Young has top billing for Saturday and Olivia Rodrigo is the headline act for Sunday.
Earlier in the night, Healy addressed the 100,000+ crowd with a pint of beer in hand, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
The 1975's Matty Healy Says He Would ‘Take Back’ Controversial Statements
“I know I’m meant to be a rockstar, but this is really scary and I’m really nervous,” Healy said about performing at Glastonbury.
He then joked, “It’s difficult to tell when I’m being sincere on stage… But what this moment is making me realize is that, yeah, I probably am the best. I probably am the best songwriter of my generation.”
Healy continued, “It’s the first time in my life I don’t know what to say.”

“Because some of my actions have hurt some people, I apologize to those people, and I pledge to do better moving forward,” he said onstage during a California performance in footage uploaded via X in October 2023. “I think it’s also important that I express my intentions, so everybody knows that there is no ill will coming from me. You see, as an artist, I want to create an environment for myself to perform where not everything that I do is taken literally.”

He continued: “I’ve kind of performed exaggerated versions of myself on other stages, be it [in] print or on podcasts and in an often misguided attempt at fulfilling the kind of character role of the 21st century rock star. So, it’s complicated.”
Healy wrapped up his message by making light of his actions, joking, “Sometimes playing pretend is the only way you can truly find out who you are, and you could probably also say that men would rather do offensive impressions for attention than go to therapy.”
