]]>Despite not being British performers, both Richie and Perry go a long way back with King Charles. Richie serves as the first chairman of the Global Ambassador Group for The Prince’s Trust since 2019, while Perry was appointed as the ambassador of his charity The British Asian Trust.
British pop group Take That will also grace the stage, with Gary Barlow, Howard Donald, and Mark Owen confirming their performance without Robbie Williams.
“This will be our first live show since the Odyssey Tour, four years ago in 2019, and what a stage to come back on! A huge live band and orchestra, a choir, military drummers, the backdrop of Windsor Castle and the celebration of a new King. We can’t wait,” said Take That in a statement.
The list of performers also includes Italian opera singer Andrea Bocelli, Welsh bass-baritone Sir Bryn Terfel, the English singer multi-instrumentalist Freya Ridings, and classical-soul composer-producer Alexis Ffrench. They’ll all perform at King Charles III’s coronation concert on May 7.

]]>The Rock & Roll Hall of Fame ceremony returned to LA’s Microsoft Theater on November 5 and it was a night to remember! In addition to Parton and Eminem, the list of this year’s inductees also included the soul singer Lionel Richie, band Duran Duran, new wave duo Eurythmics, rock star Pat Benatar, and singer-songwriter Carly Simon.
This year’s ceremony was one for the books because it covered a diverse range of genres, ranging from hip-hop and soul to country. Parton famously tried to bow out of consideration because she didn’t feel deserving of the honor as a country artist, but the ballots were already sent out to the voters so she agreed to gracefully accept this honor.
“I’m a rock star now! This is a very special night for me. When they said they were gonna put me in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, I didn’t really feel like I had done enough to deserve that… But I’m just honored and so proud to be here tonight,” said Parton in her acceptance speech.
