Most of the time, hanging out at the airport is not exactly a pleasurable experience—but not when Robyn, the platinum-haired Swedish pop star, is hanging out there, too! On June 20th, she'll play a show at JetBlue's Terminal 5 (no, not that one) for JetBlue passengers. So go book a flight now! Just kidding. (Kind of.) The performance is part of JetBlue's Live From T5 concert series, developed by Superfly, the producers of Bonnaroo. They've previously done shows with Sarah McLachlan, Taylor Swift and Raphael Saadiq.

Robyn is currently on the road to promote her excellent Body Talk albums (sadly, she's opening for Katy Perry on many of the dates). Here's her mesmerizing new video, "Call Your Girlfriend," in which she somehow makes even platform sneakers and patterned leggings look cool.
