There’s nothing like a jubilee to bring some colour and national pride to the UK, and the country’s diplomatic missions joined in the celebrations for HM Queen Elizabeth II’s 70 years on the throne.
The British Consul-General in Los Angeles, Emily Cloke, and Sir Lucian Grainge, chairman and CEO of Universal Music Group, hosted a garden reception at the Consul-General’s residence on Saturday as their commemoration of the platinum jubilee.
Guests included Sir Patrick Stewart, Bernie Taupin, CBE, Dame Donna Langley, Boyd Muir, Nigel Lythgoe, Lady Caroline Grainge, Elliot Grainge and Sofia Richie, and Lara Hallett (Deputy Consul General).
South London-born rising music star Lola Young, whose vocals graced last year’s John Lewis Christmas advertisement, gave a special live performance at the event.
