The countdown for King Charles III’s coronation has begun.
With just days away from the momentous and historical event, more celebrity guests have been revealed to attend the coronation concert on Sunday, May 7, including Tom Cruise, Nicole Scherzinger and even Disney’s beloved character Winnie the Pooh, according to People via BBC.
The "Mission Impossible" star is scheduled to participate in pre-recorded sketches for the royal event in front of 20,000 members in the crowd, while millions of viewers will be watching at home.
Cruise, Scherzinger and Winnie the Pooh have previously made special appearances at royal events.

Cruise graciously met the late Princess Diana during a movie premiere of "Far and Away." He also attended her funeral.

The Pussycat Dolls lead singer Scherzinger participated in a pageant during the Platinum Jubilee in 2022, and Winnie the Pooh made an appearance at the Children’s Garden Party in honor of the Queen's 80th birthday in 2006.

British adventurer Bear Grylls and singer Sir Tom Jones will also be featured at the coronation concert to honor the King.
BBC previously announced the star-studded performance lineup, which includes Katy Perry, Andrea Bocelli and Lionel Richie.

Multiple reports claimed Harry Styles, Elton John, Robbie Williams and the Spice Girls all declined to perform at the coronation concert on the grounds of Windsor Castle.
It was previously reported that Adele and Ed Sheeran also said no to the historical gig.

The coronation concert will be held one day after King Charles and Queen Camilla are crowned at Westminster Abbey on Saturday, May 6.

Prince Harry is expected to attend his father’s traditional coronation ceremony.
His wife, Meghan Markle, confirmed that she would stay behind with their children while Prince Harry travels to the United Kingdom.
Buckingham Palace previously shared a statement regarding the joyous event for the weekend-long coronation celebration.

"As previously announced, the Service will reflect the Monarch’s role today and look towards the future, while being rooted in longstanding traditions and pageantry," the palace partially said in a release.

Charles and Camilla "hope the Coronation Weekend will provide an opportunity to spend time and celebrate with friends, families and communities across the United Kingdom, the Realms and the Commonwealth," the release continued. "Their Majesties are looking forward to marking the occasion with the public throughout 2023."



No guys I swear to God he's the King. Why are you laughing? Stop laughing he's the real King I swear.

and even Disney’s beloved character Winnie the Pooh, according to People via BBC.

Crazy that Biden isn't going but Chairman Xi is!

I was going to make a joke about Pooh being Xi and how it was nice China is on such good terms with them, but having fictional characters and movie stars for the coronation of a monarch is already a bigger joke.

They're not attending the coronation, they're appearing at concerts and other events that are being held the day before.

 

[Slur Generator]

There is still time for him to die before his coronation. Cmon, big money. Hahaa Megan Markle not invited

Winnie the Pooh is a big British icon. He's been a bit displaced by Paddington and by Disney (as people thinking he's a Disney's property), but he was at some point a big figure of them as is now Harry Potter for modern kids. It is part of their modern culture, it makes a lot of sense he's part of the celebrations of a British King.

I am in fact surprised Harry Potter isn't "invited", but I guess Charles ain't a fan.

The thought of Winnie the Pooh crowning the king during the coronation is a more hilarious image.

"Pope Hunnie I (born Winnie Pooh) is the head of the Catholic Church, the bishop of Rome and sovereign of the Vatican City State. Hunnie is the first pope to be a bear."

At first I thought it was meant to be some reddit-tier own of President Xi by the Western Elite class.

But no, Queen Elizabeth loved Winnie the Pooh as a child and was featured in a story.

She also had tea with Paddington and had a lot of fun doing the sketch.

 

[Mothra1988]

This is probalby more about Disney being assmad about Winnie the Pooh becoming public domain, so this is some autistic attempt to reassert some kind of trade mark. If they are involved that is.

 

[Nate Higgers]

I keep screaming but God won’t listen. Instead he sent Winnie the Pooh.

 

[pikachudidnothingwrong]

On one hand he's a disney character (now?) on the other, it's winnie the fucking pooh and the king... with the added bonus of opening the door to potentially some hilarious chinese reactions.

And the bit with Bond for part of the Olympic Games ceremonies.

 

[BoobWhiskers]

I can't believe they'd shun Thomas the Tank Engine like this, smh.

If the Chinese react then Winni the Pooh being code for Xi is canon.

 

[RACISM]

Winnie The pooh is the only celebrity involved I give a shit about, so good choice with him at least.

Ah yes my favorite Mission Impossible star, Winnie the Pooh

Jesus...you couldn't pay me to go to a Katy Perry concert.

Can imagine Chuck sitting on his throne, watching the concert, then going , , or on each performance. Afterwards, Chuck and Camilla go home, grab a beer, and turn on TV wrestling. More entertaining than some in the concert.

Added: There is no truth to the rumors that Uncle Joe's Flying Corps (UJFC) will do a flyover during the concert, so should one see borrowed British Chinooks with the UJFC logo over the British roundel one would be mistaken. Also no truth to the rumors the UJFC birds will land nearby, to pick up any live act that got a , , or both from Big Chuck. There's also no truth to the rumor that the Chuckster and Big Mama Camilla are providing a mammoth spread for UJFC after returning from the mission.

Popes dont exist anymore, the last one died at the end of 2022 and they havent bothered to even plan a vote on a new one.
also the kings of the UK dont care about the pope...
