The Beatles Philharmonic Tribute

Dame Shirley Bassey performed at the Royal Albert Hall on the 28th. of October for the 50th. anniversary concert of the Beatles Philharmonic Tribute. Here are a few clips from YouTube for there was no official tv. recording. Dame Shirley looked very relaxed and looked and sounded great. She took time for the fans and received lots of flowers at the end of her performance. For more pictures CLICK HERE.

Here is a selection of the photos superfan Julie sent us. Julie wrote: She looks amazing. I have just got back from London where I saw Dame Shirley at the Royal Albert Hall. I went to the stage during the finale and Dame Shirley came to me, had a little chat and I got a hug and a kiss. I have some great close up photos and will try and send them to the blog. ‘Shirley you were amazing last night. You brought the house down’.

  3. These were great to see Pieter, thank you! I was holding my breathe as I watched. Somehow knowing Jonas was there made it even more phenomenal! I am so happy for him. And now to know and see Dame Shirley in all her splendor taking time to talk to Julie is so cool. Happy for Julie and Jonas. I will be even happier when it is my turn to see our Dearest Dame Live. May she live forever and ever! Thanks for the great pictures!

  4. I hope it is okay to tell this in this blog, but I have to tell you fellow fans of DSB that I wrote Oprah about Dame Shirley. It is Oprah’s last season. I think she could interview Dame Shirley with all of the love, trust and finesse so that she is comfortable during the interview. Dme Shirley has suffered such horrible interviewers even recently, that she deserves to be at ease at least to some degree with a pro like Oprah. I hated reading that interview from a London newspaper(I think) where the guy went for the jugular by asking about her daughter and other painful memories. So tricky and disrespectful. Anyway, I would love to encourage you all to tell Oprah who you would like to see her interview during her last 25th and last season: Our Fantabulous Dame Shirley Bassey!

  7. Hi Julie

    Yup, I have footage of you with Dame Shirley taken on my camera! It just looked like you were wearing a dress because I could only see the top half and not the beige trousers. You had a black hair accessory at the back where your hair was put up? Haven’t had time to do anything with the footage yet but will put it on YouTube when I get a chance.

    I’ll ask the Blog team to pass my email address on to you 🙂

  10. I thought she looked positively glowing. The look she had when she did the Electric Proms, I thought, didn;’t really do her justice. The hair was wrong. But this image, above, is phenomenal, for a woman of nigh on 74. She is without any doubt any inspiration, not to women everywhere, but to any would be performer.
    I’d also like to mention BigSpendah, who, yet again, has waved her magic wand and will be making Julie a very happy person, with her video.
