Adam Lambert received a holiday invitation he couldn’t refuse this season. The “American Idol” alum and current Queen frontman recently shared on Instagram that he was “thrilled” to be asked by Kate Middleton, Princess of Wales, to perform at her holiday program in London for a bevy of special guests.
Lambert, 41, dressed in an emerald green suit paired with gold glitter platform shoes met Princess Kate at the historic Westminster Abbey on December 8, 2023. Though he’d performed for the royal family before with Queen, whom he’s toured with since 2011, he told People that this experience was very different.
Lambert was asked by the princess to perform at her third annual “Together At Christmas” carol concert, which will be broadcast on Britain’s ITV on Christmas Eve. Before the concert, she met with the handful of participants she’d invited including the Westminster Abbey choir, Jacob Collier, Freya Ridings and Jim Broadbent.
“I had the honor of meeting Catherine, Princess of Wales,” Lambert told People. “She invited the performers she wanted to see at the service, and it was lovely to visit with her before we performed.”
