Elton John was billed as one of the biggest stars to perform at the Platinum Jubilee Pageant - but fans were left baffled after his slot was screened as a pre-recorded performance.
Fans of the Rocket Man singer raised concerns about his health but the singer was in fact unable to perform live at the concert due to fulfilling his European leg of his Goodbye Yellow Brick Road tour.
The tour, dubbed his last before retiring from live performances, kicked off in 2018 but has suffered a string of set backs due to the Covid pandemic as well as the singer’s hip injury.
