Alongside Katy, a smorgasbord of celebrity performers graced the stage to celebrate King Charles taking over the British throne. British boy band icons Take That made a special reunion for the event, while Italian opera singer Andrea Bocelli sang his heart out, followed by Welsh bass-baritone Sir Bryn Terfel.
Katy also had the pleasure of sharing the headliner position with her fellow American Idol judge Lionel Richie. As they both had to take time off from the singing competition show, Ed Sheeran and Alanis Morissette were set to fill in as guest judges, according to Deadline. The hitmakers will help judge Luke Bryan hold down the fort at American Idol on Sunday.
The Coronation Service of Their Majesties The King Charles III and The Queen Consort was attended by a congregation of more than 2,200 guests, including Members of the Royal Family, international representatives from over 200 countries, and approximately 100 Heads of State. The hand painted invitation, which was shared via the Royal’s Instagram, was sent to all guests. Notably absent among the guests were US President Joe Biden, though his wife, First Lady Dr. Jill Biden, attended, and Duchess of Sussex, Meghan Markle, who stayed in America with Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet.
