evidence: In recent months, numerous headliners for Charles' coronation have reportedly declined their invitations to perform. Per the Daily Mail, Adele and Ed Sheeran were the first to say no, even after Charles said he "was very keen that they were part of the concert." [...] On April 28, it was announced that English boy band Take That will perform with three of its original members: Gary Barlow, Howard Donald and Mark Owen. Additional performers include Lionel Richie, who was the first global ambassador of the Prince's Trust, a charity founded by Charles; pop star Katy Perry, who was appointed as an ambassador of the British Asian Trust, another charity founded by Charles, in 2020; Italian opera star Andrea Bocelli and Welsh singer Sir Bryn Terfel, who will perform as a duo; singer-songwriter Freya Ridings, classical-soul musician Alexis Ffrench, Bette Midler and an official coronation choir, made up of choir groups from across the UK.
