The 26-year-old pop star was scheduled to appear at the iconic music festival in 2015, but was forced to withdraw because of vocal surgery. However, she has now revealed she will be taking to the stage at Worthy Farm later this year.

Asked if she had any plans for Glastonbury, Jess told BBC Radio 4: "Yeah I think ... so. I didn't know whether it's been announced or not. Okay, yeah, we are doing Glastonbury. I'm so excited! I didn't get to do it last year."

The 'Don't Be So Hard On Yourself' songstress will be joined at the world famous event by a host of chart-topping acts, including British band Coldplay - who recently starred at the Super Bowl - and Muse.

Other acts set to star at the summer-time event include two-time Mercury prize winner PJ Harvey and Jeff Lynne's ELO.

Currently, the Saturday headline slot is still to be filled, although Grammy Award-winning singer Adele is widely expected to perform on the night.

The full line-up for this year's festival is set to be officially announced in April.
