Diana Ross was last a guest in Great Britain 15 years ago, in 2020 the pandemic put a damper on her tour schedule. But now the soul diva finally wants to return, and for a special event. She will perform in honor of the Queen.
Soul legend Diana Ross leads the cast at the big star concert celebrating Queen Elizabeth II's 70th jubilee. The performance of the former Supremes singer is planned to conclude the show on June 4 in London, according to The Times newspaper.
The BBC's 'Platinum Concert' in the grounds of Buckingham Palace is one of the highlights of the four day anniversary celebrations. There will be three stages. 3D projections on the facade of the royal residence are also planned. 10,000 spectators are expected. According to "Times", the band Queen, Duran Duran and Andrea Bocelli have also confirmed so far. According to the PA news agency, singer George Ezra has been confirmed as a guest. The complete list of participants is expected later this week.
It will be the first time since 2007 that the now 78-year-old American Ross can be seen live in the UK. In 2020, planned concerts by the "Queen of Motown" were canceled due to the pandemic. Further performances are planned around the country after the star concert, including at the Glastonbury Festival on 26 June.
