The host of the 100th Royal Variety Performance David Walliams said today that the line-up is “out of this world”
Comedian and Britain’s Got Talent judge David Walliams will host the 100th Royal Variety Performance next month.
Heading the bill are Rod Stewart, Robbie Williams, Girls Aloud, Kylie Minogue, Alicia Keys, and Neil Diamond.
The show takes place at the Albert Hall on 19 November, but it will not be screened on ITV1 until early December.
David Walliams said: “I am honoured to be presenting the Royal Variety Show this year. It is a show that I have watched every year from a very young age, and never dreamed I would be one day be a part of it. The line-up is out of this world.”
The Queen and the Duke of Edinburgh will attend this year’s show, returning for the 100th anniversary, after missing the last two instalments.
Money raised by this year’s show will help to maintain Brinsworth House in Twickenham, Middlesex – the entertainers’ retirement and nursing home which is run by the EABF.
