Brand, Take That and The Who to perform
A list detailing the artists set to appear at the London Olympics closing ceremony has been leaked, according to reports.
Big names featured in the document include The Who, Take That and George Michael, reports the Daily Mail.
Queen and Jessie J, Ed Sheeran, Ray Davies and Russell Brand are also among the stars alleged to be performing at the two-hour-long event, which will take place on 12 August.
Rather than going through a stand-up routine, Brand is instead expected to cover The Beatles’ track I Am The Walrus and join up with comediennes Jennifer Saunders and Dawn French for a version of the Sex Pistol’s Pretty Vacant.
There will also be a line-up of models – led by Kate Moss – to showcase the best of British fashion.
A spokes person for Locog, the London 2012 organising committee told the publication:
“We won’t comment, we want the line-up to be a surprise.”
Tickets for the event are still available, with prices ranging from £655 to £1,500.
