On the eve of May 7, a grand gala concert dedicated to the historic event took place on the territory of Windsor Castle — coronation of Charles III and his wife, Queen Consort Camilla. The show included not only classic ballet and opera numbers, but also performances by world music stars. So, Katy Perry, Nicole Scherzinger, Lionel Richie and other performers took the stage.
Katy Perry, dressed in a gold-colored Vievienne Westwood ball gown, performed her hits “Roar” and “Firework”. Nicole Scherzinger, who opted for an exquisite blue velvet corset dress for the event, performed a cover of Christina Aguilera’s “Reflection” from the Disney animated film Mulan. Lionel Richie sat down at the piano to sing The Commodores’ classic followed by his own composition “All Night Long”.
Among the star guests invited to the concert, one could notice the daughter of Lionel Richie Sophia, who recently married, designer Stella McCartney, Italian tenor Andrea Bocelli and other celebrities. Of course, the king and queen consort also attended the concert with their family. — Prince William and Kate Middleton, who took 9-year-old Prince George and 8-year-old Princess Charlotte to the show. Their younger brother, Louis, appears to have been left at home by the monarch’s parents after a long-hour coronation ceremony at Wesminster Abbey on Saturday.
At one point in the evening, Prince William took the stage to celebrate his father’s accomplishments, as well as honor the memory of the late Queen Elizabeth II.
I want to say a few words about my father and why I think this weekend is so important. But don’t worry, unlike Lionel, I won’t go on all night long, the Prince of Wales and the first pretender to the British throne joked. “As my grandmother said when she was crowned, ‘A coronation is a declaration of our hopes for the future.’ And I know she is up there, watching us lovingly. She would be very proud.
