King Charles Crashes American Idol After Coronation Concert Celebration

King Charles made a surprise appearance on American Idol after his coronation concert

King Charles made a surprise appearance during Sunday night’s edition of American Idol following the coronation concert.

Regular judges Katy Perry and Lionel Richie were both part of the line-up on the night, meaning they were unable to be part of that week’s American Idol live show, with Alanis Morissette and Ed Sheeran filling in for them.

However, Katy and Lionel did briefly speak to their colleagues via video-link on Sunday night, which was then crashed by a very special guest.

“I have a surprise,” the All Night Long singer commented as Charles and Camilla made their way into view, with the former joking: “I just wanted to check… how long you’ll be using this room for?”

Charles went on to praise the two “brilliant” performers for their routines during his show, with Camilla also taking a moment to compliment Katy’s “frock”, which garnered plenty of attention during the show.

Lionel then asked the monarchs: “We understand there’s a party? You’re throwing a party next door? As soon as we finish [here], we’re coming to the party.”

“You deserve it, bless you,” the newly-crowned king told the musicians.

Paloma Faith, Olly Murs and Andrea Bocelli were also among the musicians on the line-up for King Charles’ coronation concert, at the end of which Take That closed the show with a selection of their hits.

There were also cameo appearances from Kermit The Frog and Miss Piggy, while Tom Cruise appeared in a pre-recorded skit.
