Tom Jones turns 82 TODAY as furious fans demand to know ‘why wasn’t he at Jubilee show?’ | Celebrity News | Showbiz & TV
Sir Tom Jones is today marking his 82nd birthday, with fans taking to social media to send him their well-wishes. The legendary musician was notably absent during Queen Elizabeth II’s Platinum Jubilee celebrations, leaving Britons wondering where he was during the concert.
Some even logged onto Twitter to enquire why the knighted It’s Not Unusual singer wasn’t performing for the monarch.
Leckston said: “IMO Tom Jones should have played instead of Diana Ross at the end of the Jubilee Concert.
“British born and bred and still with a magnificent voice, albeit he’ll be 82 in two days time!” (sic)
VerityKalcev agreed: “Could have had Tom Jones and Bonnie Tyler. Just saying #PlatinumJubilee”
He shared a series of photographs of himself and the Queen, including one of the pair shaking hands at the Royal Variety Show at the London Palladium in 1968.
Another showed the moment Tom was knighted in Buckingham Palace in 2006.
There was also a snap of Tom standing on the stage with the Queen and Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall at the Diamond Jubilee concert back in 2012.
Tom penned: “Always inspiring, the magnificent Queen Elizabeth II.”
