Chrissie Hynde has been in no rush to see lockdown guidelines lifted because the planet has benefitted from the COVID-19 pandemic.<\/p>\n

As strict stay-at-home orders are relaxed in parts of the world where coronavirus infections are on the wane, The Pretenders star said she’d happily make permanent lifestyle changes to help the environment. <\/p>\n

“If I knew there would be no more flights, if we can get rid of all cars, I would be the first to sign up,” she bluntly told Rolling Stone, admitting she’s ‘pretty lazy’ anyway. <\/p>\n

And the 2000 Miles hitmaker has found it hard to get excited about the prospect of performing in ‘socially distanced’ shows, quipping: “Where are you going to do it, in an airplane hangar?”<\/p>\n

She proclaimed she’s also not a fan of the big names who have released ‘pompous’ come-together anthems during the global health crisis. <\/p>\n

“Why do artists think that they’re going to heal everybody and their music is so important?” she asked. <\/p>\n

Chrissie has her own ideas for ‘alternative’ future concerts, musing she’d like to ‘pull out any obscure Pretenders thing’ on stage and say: “‘Here’s something you’ve never heard,’ and they’re (fans) like, ‘Oh, OK. Cool’.<\/p>\n

“But who knows,” she added: “if we’re locked down like this for another five years, I might be doing a striptease on Zoom (video conferencing app). I don’t know how desperate people can get.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
