Receiving an honour from the King isn't something that happens every day so if it is ever your turn then it's worth making an effort on your outfit. Singer skin, lead vocalist of the Brit-rock band Skunk Anansie, accepted her OBE in stunning fashion at Windsor Castle on Tuesday.
The 55-year-old singer, whose real name is Deborah Dyer, was made an OBE for services to music, and said the honour was “completely unexpected”. She said: “It had literally never occurred to me that this could happen, it was a really lovely surprise.”
But it was her outfit rather than her music which became a talking point on social media. For after Graham Bartholomew posted a tweet from the occasion with the words "What a picture" it sparked hundreds of comments along with more than 5,000 likes.
