The 69-year-old musician is set to take to the stage at Buckingham Palace's star-studded concert alongside the likes of Sir Rod Stewart, Sir Elton John and Diana Ross to celebrate the Queen's Jubilee on Saturday night.

Stopped reading at the “sir” Elton John garbage.
We have been forced to hear the garbage that poof puts out for 40 +years.
Turn on the radio, poof, there’s another of his garbage songs. And don’t try to justify it by “ look how much money he made/makes”. When there’s only a few sources of music, like in the pre-internet days his crap music was on every venue. “Sir” indeed🤮.

On a related topic, Mick Jagger was knighted in 2003 and became Sir Mick. When asked about this, Keith Richards sarcastically said, “Mick should have held out for a lordship.”

Gotta love Keith.

Rod Stewart is a “Sir” as well.

I suggest a cover version of “Dizzy Miss Lizzie”.

I am confused why Diana Ross is there? Maybe Shirley Bassey is not performing anymore but surely there is a Brit

A lot of folks don’t know who he is. Musically inclined folks, probably.

I thought this article was going to be about something else entirely.

“Maybe Shirley Bassey is not performing anymore but surely there is a Brit”


She was going to sing “The Name Game” using “Chuck” instead “Charles”, so they had to cancel her.

If you’re not familiar with Nile , check out Get Lucky from 2014 (also featuring Daft Punk and Pharrell Williams). Super chill guy.
