ISBritish singer Lily Allen performed at the Applesauce stage at Hróarskelda last night. She is one of the most well-known artists performing at the festival this year. According to Danish national broadcaster DR, Allen did not sing her most popular songs as expected. She also did not speak to the audience during any of her performances. Her act was set up in a playful manner, featuring songs from her latest album 'West End Girl,' which discusses her relationship with her former partner, actor David Harbour, and his bisexuality. On the Applesauce stage, there were various props and playful elements, including a selection of items related to her past relationship, taken from a freezer and a bag with a reference to Harbour’s ‘love life’ bag, which Allen claims she found for sentimental reasons. She also acted out a phone call with her ex, stating she was in Reykjavik rather than Hróarskelda. Despite a varied performance, creative costumes, and playful staging, Allen failed to engage the audience, who quickly left after her first song. At the end of her performance, Allen bowed to the audience and made a heart gesture with her hands before leaving the stage without saying much.
