Lionel is a very intelligent man. He gets it. The fact he's involved in the princes trust is huge. What an asset. Hopefully he can repeat his glastonbury performance on sunday!
uncivilized adultery tyranny king charles lll .see his other humanity crimes... we want DNA test on true king , and that australia guy .... and what Jamacian islands said.....
I grew up with Lionel in Tuskegee Alabama and he’s always been kind & gracious! He used to visit my youngest brother in our home most Sunday evenings after church. His grandmother was our church organist and his mother was my 8th grade teacher. Lovely family indeed!!
Are you aware that Lionel has been involved with The Prince's Trust since the 1980's, not just the "little while" he mentioned. To have remained connected to the (now) King for nearly 40 years only confirms he knows how to behave in polite company and more importantly when to "keep his mouth discreetly shut". The words of your post only confirm my post.
Lionel I am sooo glad you are "on board" in this time of change here in the UK... Especily during the Coronation.. You are the voice of love and reason in our Kingdom and time.. God bless you and yours... Be well, safe and happy here..❤❤
True classy man unlike the British singers who snubbed Charles. They need to forgive and move on like Diana did before her death. It has been over 2 decades not cool for them to snub him
Lionel is going to do us proud! Watch and see. I’m so proud of you, Mr. Ritchie. What an opportunity of lifetime! Good luck and I wish you success for tomorrow!
Only because none of our top artist want to be associated with Charles's Coronation - let's speak the Truth. A citizen of the USA should not be topping the bill - it's laughable.......
Thank you Lionel, you are so kind to talk about the King in such a loving kind way. You are a perfect gentleman to see the kindness in people. Some people always compare the the king to his Mother but he is his own kind person and does a lot for charity.
So impressed with this interview and the relationship with Lionel Ritchie and King Charles. They have collaborated to take on a philanthropic trust. Good souls.
Are you not aware that Lionel first got involved with The Prince's Trust in the 1980's, when the present King was the Prince of Wales. This is not a new initiative, but one that the King wants to expand and further help more young people achieve their ambition that normally wouldn't get the opportunity.
Mr. Richie is a class act all around. He's beloved and he appears to be such a kind, thoughtful man. For decades, he's always given back. All the best to him.
Who doesn’t love Lionel Ritchie right. As an American who loves the Royal family, Lionel is perfect on the board & as an ambassador for the Prince’s Trust. Enjoy every minute of your time overseas. You along with your beautiful wife looked amazing at the Garden party.
phylly : Are you aware he and the King have been friends for about 36 years through the Prince's Trust. Lionel's remark, "I have known King Charles now for a while"........is classical British understatement which he has obviously acquired during this period.
Thank you so much to Lionel for accepting the invitation to sing for King Charles. Whereas Adele and Kylie turned our King down it's lovely to see such a classy singer accept the honour xx
@@mirandaal4541 Of course they don't have an obligation. Read my comment again I am thanking someone for accepting our invitation when the other's refused. Now shoo :)
Adele wasn't actually invited to perform for King Charles, as was Ed Sheeran .....check up.....more false news. It seemed the organisers felt she was deemed to be just too unpredictable for an event which had to be predictable.
@@scarlettkhan9667 Your comment above is a thinly veiled criticism of singers who allegedly "turned our King down" as opposed to the "classy" ones who accepted the invitation. Do you think we're fools?
It was an amazing weekend and happy to have such an awesome legend in Lionel Richie to support the United Kingdom in this great time of transition after losing our beloved Queen
What a superstar, talented and a wonderful caring man, I hope we see lots more of him in the future. Looking forward to hearing him sing. Hope everyone enjoys the concert.
I’ve been lucky enough to see Lionel in concert twice and met him back stage for photos once. He does an outstanding non stop show, and is the same person on stage, as off stage. Terrific person.
THE LEGEND: I am an American, we are extremely proud of this moment of history for our "LEGENDARY ARTIST" Mr. Lionel Richie. He has been an artist since the 1960's he has performed to millions of people around the world. Love Him
So impressed. So southern from the US, such a difference from NY and the north. Americans from the South are more old school, and more gracious. Lionel is a fine example of a true Southern Gentleman. Pure class!
Lionel is someone I always connected to... Listened to his songs too as a teenager when many of my age were listening to boy bands! There's something about Lionel that is so heartwarming....
Im a big fan of LionelRichie but ivenever seen him being interviewed in this kind of platform. He is so dignified, articulate in words and thoughts, he could almost pass as an englishman or an aristocrate. Full of Class & imagine he had been a personal friend of King Charles III...thats abig deal because of the cause they both love n committed to dearly. Hail Lord Lionel
Seen Kirsty interview all sorts of famous people, politicians and dignitaries and don't think I've ever seen her so starstruck during an interview. Made it even better!
Think about this. Lionel Richie was born in rural South Alabama in 1949 in the Jim Crow South. And, today, he is singing for the King of England. As a child, not even in his wildest dreams could he have guessed that this would be his destiny! He is proof that with hard work & determination, dreams CAN come true, a true example of the embodiment of the American Dream!
How is singing to Charles an achievement??? What has Charles ever achieved?. In fact Charles should feel honoured that the super gifted and hardworking Lionel chose to sing for him. White supremacists need to get over themselves!
As a middle American as Lionel said I for one am interested in His Majesty’s coronation. I lived in the UK for 6yrs Britain will always be my home my heart is there
This makes me smile and happy! I´m sure the beautiful lady went right to listening to Lionel´s singing when she got home that day. No wonder, when Lionel is singing anywhere, one knows it´s Lionel singing.
Wow such an unassuming man Lionel Ritchie is! God bless you. I hope we see you perform at the concert?? Love your music & have done for years, keep going strong! love ❤️ from Port Elizabeth, Eastern Cape, South Africa 🇿🇦 🇿🇦🇿🇦
I just love this man to pieces. Lionel always the gentleman and always keeping it classy. A true musical legend. Lionel looking so handsome and beautifully humble. He makes me so proud to be representing the USA.
So nicely said, the event is indeed stepping into history. This is the first for UK to have a King in 70 years. Lionel is looking great and is such a legend. What a classy man!

What a gracious gentleman Lionel is.
Absolutely... ❤
He is, and I had no idea he was helping to lead this wonderful project.
one of the best what a guy
Well thank you Dear that was Very sweet of you
@tabford8274 😮 you're so fresh I naver 😂😅 😆
Lionel is a very intelligent man. He gets it. The fact he's involved in the princes trust is huge. What an asset. Hopefully he can repeat his glastonbury performance on sunday!
This is very disappointed black people should not participate in this event
Lionel stop it!!!! The Kings friend??? He looks at all of you as peasants!!! lol.
@@jonestownrecords What makes you say that? The Royals have got their wealth by stealing from everyone home and abroad
🤔@jonestownrecords He's Mixed Race but why? 🇬🇧
Amazing! Lionel Richie is Gold, you are Pride and more for the USA. Thank you Lionel Richie. ❤ 🇺🇸 from the USA

Be well, safe and happy here..❤❤
Warcriminal Tony Blair is "On Board" too ... Yes, the so called royal family has a criminal history
I just love Lionel Richie. He’s such a genuine and honorable man.
Really, how he loves war criminals
His music makes me wanna dance 😊❤
Ask his ex-wives how honorable of a man Lionel was to them?
@@TinyDancerO all ex wives are unbiase
Looking so forward to this concert! Lionel is a prince of music himself. Loved him since disco.
Love him. Always and forever
Arf
@@marlene8344 And again.
Lionel is a superb human and America could not have a better representative.
Yeah way better than the bidens they sent over…
It's shame Charlie's other best friend Jimmy isn't alive to be there...
True classy man unlike the British singers who snubbed Charles. They need to forgive and move on like Diana did before her death. It has been over 2 decades not cool for them to snub him
Who is he representing?
@@slicedice577 can you read?
Thank you Lionel for doing good to the world! You are right the coronation is a history that most of us in this world only witness in a life time.
We love Lionel Richie he is the best
'we'?
Omg what a charmer, Lionel is amazing!
I’m with you. Lionel is such a talented and classy guy, love him!
@@Grace-tc1lq a satanist
Absolutely! All night long!
Lionel is going to do us proud! Watch and see. I’m so proud of you, Mr. Ritchie. What an opportunity of lifetime! Good luck and I wish you success for tomorrow!
As an American! Lionel Riches is a true artist, gentlemen and an overall hero to us in the US. The UK is so blessed to have him at the coronation!
As a Brit, I completely agree
Only because none of our top artist want to be associated with Charles's Coronation - let's speak the Truth. A citizen of the USA should not be topping the bill - it's laughable.......
We do have artists of our own ?
@@adventuredoguk2860 Throbber
No, Lionel is blessed to be at the coronation…
Lovevhim. He is so eloquent and speak from the heart.
Thank you Lionel, you are so kind to talk about the King in such a loving kind way. You are a perfect gentleman to see the kindness in people. Some people always compare the the king to his Mother but he is his own kind person and does a lot for charity.
Thank you Lionel Richtie for being there for King Charles!!!!!!!!!!!!!
We all need a friend like Lionel ❤

Lionel is an American treasure.
No he’s not
@@marlene8344 Sod you.
Yes he is but where are all the British musicians who were not available for the King's concert?
@@kennixox262 I am disappointed that none of the major British performers could make the time to perform for this event.
No Elvis Presley is
An absolute gentleman.
This man is a wonderful ambassador for not only the Prince's Trust but also for his own country and by association ours too. Thank you sir.
I’m in America and I am going to be up watching the coronation live.

✨️He isn't Married ⭐️
Love Lionel Richie music, I am very happy he is there 👏👏❤️❤️❤️🇨🇦
What a legend of a man
I'm American and love the royals and will be watching tomorrow
My fondest thoughts of Lionel Richie involve my 102 year old aunt. When she hears his music, she says, "Li-oh-nell!" He brings joy.
Thank you so much to Lionel for accepting the invitation to sing for King Charles. Whereas Adele and Kylie turned our King down it's lovely to see such a classy singer accept the honour xx
No need to bag Kylie and Adele
it's not like Adele or Kylie or anyone else is obligated to perform for King Charles and you have no right to disrespect their choice

Really!!! A gentleman doesn't have affairs, then blames his exes for putting him off marriage.
Great job, Lionel! Love and respect you!
We, the middle American people, love watching and hearing all the events in England!!! 🎉
@Maggie Bannen Berkowitz totally agree.....kind of felt like a put down from Lionel that we aren't aware......Meghan Markle is the only unaware one
@@ozarksnipehunter3403 most Americans don't care, and why would they..

Straight from the heart!! Love Lionel!

So impressed. So southern from the US, such a difference from NY and the north. Americans from the South are more old school, and more gracious. Lionel is a fine example of a true Southern Gentleman. Pure class!
God Blessed King Charles & Lional Ritchie❤️
Lionel is someone I always connected to...
Listened to his songs too as a teenager when many of my age were listening to boy bands!
There's something about Lionel that is so heartwarming....
I love this man. From a boy to now in my fifty’s his music has fulled my life with joy. 🎉 incredible words about the King and their friendship. 👍🏽💯😊🇳🇿
Simply put, Lionel Ritchie represents everything that is right about this world.
Lionel Richie you are a legend ❤
What an incredible talent you are with a wonderful soul. MR Ritchie you make America proud!! We need more people like you in the world.❤

I couldn't agree more!
helen : He has known King Charles via The Princes Trust since the 1980's. So humble and dignified, unlike another pair I will not mention.
We Brits love Lionel, he has traits which are great like class, dignity, politeness.
I couldn’t be anymore in love with this man, absolutely love Lionel, his personality, he is a true legend ❤
Love Lionel Ritchie!
Seen Kirsty interview all sorts of famous people, politicians and dignitaries and don't think I've ever seen her so starstruck during an interview. Made it even better!
Lionel always welcome in britain hes one of our special freinds.........
I have loved Lionel Richie for decades. Thank you so much for being there Lionel. Lovely man with a voice like velvet!

How is singing to Charles an achievement??? What has Charles ever achieved?. In fact Charles should feel honoured that the super gifted and hardworking Lionel chose to sing for him. White supremacists need to get over themselves!
Hard work beats talent
What would he achieve without Jim Crow? I wonder? Could he become the king?
American dream my arse. Lol
Oh my . Loved it god bless you . 🇨🇦
What a charming man. Modern pop stars could take a lesson on how to become a legend.
Kirsty Young is a fantastic broadcaster, & Lionel is a true Gentleman a real ambassador for his Country.
Lionel is so lovely, what a charming man and his music remains absolute classics!
What a lovely man he is! It'll be a pleasure to watch your performance Lionel! ❤from🇨🇦
