As the ruling to overturn Roe v Wade - leaving millions of women in America without the constitutional right to abortion - makes shock waves around the world, singer Olivia Rodrigo used her set at Glastonbury to deliver a message to the five US Supreme Court justices responsible for the decision.

Bringing Lily Allen on stage for a special duet, the pair sang a rendition of Allen's song 'Fuck You'. Rodrigo told the audience: 'I’m devastated I’m terrified and so many women and so many girls are going to die because of this. I wanted to dedicate this song to the five members of the supreme court, who showed us that at the end of the day they truly don’t give a shit about freedom. This song goes out to the justices, Samuel Alito, Clarence Thomas, Neil Gorsuch, Amy Coney Barret, and Brett Kavanaugh. We hate you.'

Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez shared the moment on Twitter, thanking 'every artist, athlete and entertainer who uses their platform to speak out'.

Other musicians performing at Glastonbury have spoken out about Roe v Wade. On Friday, when the news first broke, Billie Eilish described it as a 'really, really dark day for women in the US', as she headlined the Pyramid Stage. Meanwhile Phoebe Bridgers led a chant against the Supreme Court during her performance, adding ‘All these irrelevant old motherf*ckers trying to tell us what to do with our f*cking bodies. F*ck it.’

Singers Charli XCX, who is performing at Glastonbury on the Sunday has already taken to Twitter to share her outrage at the landmark ruling, too - highlighting that it's not just American citizens who need to protest the decision.
