On Sunday night, a star-studded lineup of celebrities gathered at Windsor Castle for a coronation concert in honor of King Charles III. The lineup included Lionel Richie, Katy Perry, Nicole Scherzinger, Take That, Andrea Bocelli, Sir Bryn Terfel, Alexis French and Olly Murs.
Katy Perry performed “Roar” and “Firework” in a stunning gold ballgown, while Nicole Scherzinger sang her own version of Christina Aguilera’s “Reflection” from Disney’s “Mulan.” Lionel Richie sat at a black baby grand piano to perform The Commodores’ classic, “Easy,” followed by his own hit “All Night Long (All Night)” to a cheering crowd.
King Charles III and Queen Camilla were seated beside Charles’ heir to the throne, his son Prince William and wife Kate Middleton. At one point during the evening, the Prince of Wales made an appearance on stage to praise his father – while also giving a special shout-out to his late grandmother, Queen Elizabeth II.
Lionel’s daughter, Sofia Richie, was also spotted in the audience to support her dad. Prince George, 9, and Princess Charlotte, 8, sat in between their parents. Their youngest sibling, 5-year-old Louis, opted to stay home for this event – following the hours-long coronation one day prior.
The event was announced earlier this month with the BBC saying in a statement at the time, “The concert will celebrate a new chapter in the nation’s history, with themes of love, respect and optimism, celebrating the four nations, their communities and the Commonwealth.” Prince William and Kate Middleton took to social media with a very relatable message following the coronation that took place in London.
Overall, it was a memorable night that celebrated a new chapter in the nation’s history.
