Jarvis Cocker has denied that Pulp are reforming for Glastonbury 2010, claiming his quote was “twisted”.

The 46-year-old indie icon spoke to The People at the weekend saying he would like to play the festival next year, but denies he inferred it would be with Pulp.

He tells Channel 4's Teletext: "I can categorically tell Teletext that Pulp have no plans to get back together.

"Someone asked me if I fancied playing at the 40th anniversary of Glastonbury I said yes, they twisted that into a 'Pulp reform' story. It's not true."

Cocker headlined the John Peel Stage solo in June.
