January 19, 2011
Katy Perry Sad After Coachella Festival Fails To Book Daft PunkKaty Perry has said she is upset with the organisers of the Coachella festival are they failed to book Daft Punk to play this year's festival.

The French duo had been widely tipped to headline the event in California, but their name was missing when the line-up was announced today.

In a message on Twitter, Perry said she still planned to attend the festival despite Daft Punk's absence.

“Dear @coachella WTF happened to DAFT PUNK?! I wanted to get my TRON ON!” she wrote. “Needless to say, I'll still be there w/glowstixxxs.”

As previously reported, Kanye West, Arcade Fire and Kings Of Leon will headline this year's Coachella festival.
