Chris sung: ‘Here is another legendary Michael, one who just totally rocks, with his chuck Berry quiff and the way he punched [Back To The Future villain] Biff, ladies and Gentleman please welcome Michael J.Fox’.

The actor, who is an avid musician, was first diagnosed with early-onset Parkinson’s at just 30 years of age in 1991, before revealing the news publicly in 1998.

Two years after going public with his diagnosis, Fox created The Michael J. Fox Foundation in 2000.

Since then, the foundation – which he founded with his wife of 36 years, Tracy Pollan – has raised over $2 billion for Parkinson’s research.

Viewers were left in ‘tears’ following his surprise appearance as he joined the group in a rendition of their hit Fix You. 

The show was watched by a whopping crowd of 100,000 and viewers at home were left stunned by the huge audience and branded it the festival’s ‘biggest ever’. 

Headlining this year’s festival are Coldplay on Saturday night, SZA on Sunday night, and Dua Lipa who performed on Friday night. 

Shania Twain, 58, will play on Sunday in the late afternoon, and she opened up about how she is preparing.

The Top Gun: Maverick actor was among an A-list lineup of guests, including Ashton Kutcher, Mila Kunis and Hugh Grant, at London’s Wembley Stadium on Saturday night.

Social media clips from the concert showed the Chiefs player embracing the actor, as the pair smiled and laughed while Taylor performed.

At one point, during the 14-time Grammy winner’s performance of Blank Space, the Kansas City tight end put his hands on the Mission Impossible star’s shoulders and whispered something in his ear.

Tom appeared to be in high spirits as he traded friendship bracelets with Swifties at the performance.
