Queen and Adam Lambert kicked off Queen Elizabeth II's PlatinumJubilee concert with a performance of 'We Will Rock You'
“Perhaps you would like a marmalade sandwich? I always keep one for emergencies,” Paddington Bear asks Her Majesty, procuring a sticky treat from his red bucket cap.
“So do I,” the Queen replies, showcasing her own sandwich after reaching into her bag. “I keep mine in here.” The live-action portion of the event then launched with Adam Lambert and Queen taking the stage to perform for the Buckingham Palace audience, with the crowd thumping the familiar boom-boom-clap of “We Will Rock You.” The number concluded with Brian May emerging at the top of the stage, shredding the song’s ending guitar riff while surrounded by smoke.
