Lily Allen, Rod Stewart, Kanye West and Status Quo are amongst the latest acts to be added to the Diana memorial show at Wembley on 1 Jul. Also added to the bill are Natasha Bedingfield, The Feeling, James Morrison and Orson. They join previously confirmed acts such as Elton John, Bryan Ferry and Pharrell Williams.
Organisers are releasing a new batch of 10,000 tickets today for the previously reported event, which marks the late princess's 46th birthday, and the upcoming tenth anniversary of her death. The concert's project director Geoffrey Matthews says that Princes William and Harry would appear, but said that the likes of the Queen and Prince Charles won't be there because, and I quote, this is "more of a fun-filled, younger generation event".
Presenters and running order are yet to be confirmed, but the concert will be broadcast on BBC1 and in 140 countries around the world.
