Rod Stewart officially became Sir Roderick David Stewart when he received knighthood from Prince William at Buckingham Palace in London, England. The 71-year-old singer was honored for his services to the music industry and charity work, which includes supporting the British Red Cross, Breast Cancer Care and Elton John's AIDS Foundation. In a statement he told the press, "I've led a wonderful life and have had a tremendous career thanks to the generous support of the great British public. This monumental honor has topped it off and I couldn't ask for anything more. I thank Her Majesty and promise to wear it well."
A weird bald mutant performed pageantry.
So freakin' weird. I respect those that have turned down the "honor".
You can come back when you learn how to spell "honour", old chap
I say, old chum! Those savages from the colonies are just disgraceful!
Honored not for his musical career, but for his one as a miniature train enthusiast!
