Queen's platinum jubilee concert 2022: the Platinum Party at the ... (The Guardian)

One of the showpiece events for the platinum jubilee is a concert with Queen, Diana Ross, Elton John and more.

This only reinforces my belief that the staunchest royalists all spent the year 2000 smashed on WKD and listening to Oxide and Neutrino. Andrew Lloyd Webber is now sitting at a piano with Lin-Manuel Miranda, who is singing a version of You Say from Hamilton with lyrics rewritten to reflect the jubilee. What I like most about this Lion King bit is that they’re all waving birds on sticks around, like the things they stick on top of tips to keep the seagulls out. At a concert for the Queen. Remember when Windsor Castle burned down in the 1990s? Either way, they’re singing Notorious and they look for all the world like they’re having a ball. And now for Sigala and Ella Eyre, singing the sort of song that ITV2 would choose to soundtrack a Take Me Out promo. Single-handedly responsible for rescuing the UK’s reputation at Eurovision, it now falls upon him to make us all forget about Andrew Lloyd Webber. He’s wearing a sparkly Union Jack pyjama onesie, and he has managed to unite a bored and fractious crowd. Judi Dench and David Beckham are now being projected onto the side of Buckingham Palace to thank the Queen for her service. She’s singing Empire State of Mind, but for the last chorus she’s changed “New York” to “London”. “London, concrete jungle where dreams are made of”, she sings. I’ve just checked Twitter, and Lee Mack seems to be the highest trending performer of the night. This is my proudest achievement, and a fitting high to go out on. You know, I’ve been writing this liveblog without a break for almost four hours and I haven’t used the term ‘Platty Joobs’ once.

Adam Lambert, Queen and Paddington Bear kick off Platinum ... (USA TODAY)

Queen Elizabeth II may have to miss the Platinum Jubilee concert but she was still present in a surprise video recorded with Paddington Bear.

It was the couple’s first public appearance in the U.K. since they stepped back from royal duties and moved to California two years ago. The queen is widely known as an avid horse lover, and she has only missed the Epsom Derby a handful of times. Apart from attending Friday’s service, the couple has so far stayed out of the limelight. A spokesperson for the couple said they were spending the day “privately” and were not joining some 30 other members of the royal family at Saturday’s concert. The queen has had problems moving around lately, which the palace describes as “episodic mobility issues,” limiting her public appearances in recent months. “She’s been breeding horses for over 60 years.

Elizabeth was instrumental in creating the latter and many regard its success as her greatest achievement. But Charles is less popular and support among the young is waning.

Platinum Party at the Palace: The Royals were the real stars of the ... (BBC News)

Alicia Keys, Diana Ross and Sam Ryder took to the stage, but the Royal Family were the real stars.

We do know her favourite songs predate the rock era. There were also a couple of references to politics. And so, to my surprise, was the moment that drones floating above Buckingham Palace created an image of the Queen's beloved corgis. Immediately afterwards, Queen (the band) kicked off the music in style, embellishing We Will Rock You with military pomp, courtesy of the Royal Marine Drummers. "Is this girl on fire?" At most pop concerts, the audience don't turn their backs on the stage.

As the Prince spoke, images of key moments in the Queen's life were projected onto Buckingham Palace.

Your Majesty, you have been with us in our difficult times. But I know what really gets my mother up in the morning is all of you – watching at home. You continue to make history. Your “strength and stay” is much missed this evening but I am sure he is here in spirit… Looking back, we think of the countless State occasions that are milestones along this nation’s road. The Prince closed his speech with three cheers for the Queen before Diana Ross gave the final performance of the night, saying that Windsor Castle is only 20 miles away and "If we cheer loud enough she might just hear us!"

Mack told the crowds: "We are here right outside the gates of Buckingham Palace for the party of a lifetime. "Tonight has been full of such optimism and joy - and there is hope. In that time, mankind has benefited from unimaginable technological developments and scientific breakthroughs. The Duke of Cambridge praised the Queen for her "hope" in the future of the planet, echoing her speech to the COP26 climate change summit, when she spoke about working together in a "common cause". The gig kicked off with a film of The Queen having tea with Paddington Bear, bringing back memories of the video she shot with Daniel Craig as James Bond for the London 2012 Olympics.

Queen Elizabeth opened the doors of Buckingham Palace for a party celebrating her Platinum Jubilee to mark 70 years on the throne.

And although those breakthroughs have increased our awareness of the impact humans have on our world, our planet has become more fragile. When Paddington Bear said he always had a sandwich on him, the Queen quipped, "So do I," and pulled one out of her handbag! Today, in 2022 — as The Queen celebrates her Platinum Jubilee — the pressing need to protect and restore our planet has never been more urgent." "Twenty years after playing The Queen's glorious Golden Jubilee, we're very happy to be invited again," May told the BBC ahead of the show. Meghan Markle and Prince Harry also did not attend the festivities. PEOPLE has confirmed that she will be watching the show on TV at home in Windsor Castle — but her absence didn't dampen the celebration.

The Jubilee celebrations continue with the Platinum Party at the Palace Concert. Here, the best photos of the royal family from the event.

Here's a candid shot of Kate talking to her kiddos. It's been a big day for the Cambridge kids!

It was not the first time the queen has revealed her comic talents to a large audience. But she was, he said, “watching these celebrations with much emotion, having, I hope, finished her marmalade sandwich.” “So do I,” confides the queen, who then opens her black handbag. The queen wasn’t at the concert. It’s all very posh but things, of course, go wrong for the accident-prone bear. A teapot goes flying and a dessert is splattered on a butler’s face.

Buckingham Palace was transformed into a huge movie screen for tens of thousands of people who cheered the Queen, and saw a galaxy of stars performing.

On Saturday, five of her former racehorses were paraded, and 40 jockeys who have ridden for the queen formed a guard of honor before the national anthem was played. “Her majesty is well known for her sense of humor, so it should be no surprise that she decided to take part in tonight’s sketch,’’ the palace said. Despite the queen’s absence, spirits were high during an event that culminated with appearances by the monarch’s son and grandson. The sketch featured the queen having a cream tea with British national treasure Paddington Bear at Buckingham Palace. "Mankind has benefitted from unimaginable technological developments and scientific breakthroughs. The long-time mystery was solved Saturday when the British monarch made the second star turn of her career, appearing in a mini-movie to kick off a concert celebrating her 70 years on the throne.
