Lulu appeared to be moved to tears following her showstopping performance at the BBC Proms, where she sang her own James Bond number, The Man with the Golden Gun, at the Royal Albert Hall.
Tearful moment on stage
The legendary Scottish singer took centre stage to deliver the iconic track, and the audience erupted in cheers and applause. Lulu stood on stage, visibly tearful, after her set.
Fans flocked to X to share their reactions. One wrote, "Ahhh! The eternally delicious LuLu x x x." Another praised, "I was so looking forward to this...best thing? Lulu."
Audience and viewer reactions
Further comments included "Lulu looks and sounds fabulous" and "Lulu looks and sounds phenomenal." One fan noted that Lulu "Seemed emotional at the end there," while another enthused, "Best singer so far...go on Lulu!"
The concert featured beloved and instantly recognisable theme tunes from the Bond franchise, alongside memorable soundtracks from other spy films. Host Nick Mohammed described the mission as a celebration of "more than 60 years of 007 soundtracks and songs, arguably some of the most iconic film music ever created."
Host and orchestra
Nick Mohammed set the tone from the start, joking that his appearance was doubling up as an audition for the next James Bond. "I will say, while a decision hasn't yet been made about who's going to be the next James Bond, I am kind of seeing this as my audition," he told the audience.
Introducing conductor Daniel Bartholomew-Poyser, Mohammed joked: "Tonight, we provided the illustrious leader of our special operation with a short wooden stick, but when aimed in a particular direction, is able to do this. May I present the man with the golden baton."
The BBC Concert Orchestra, led by Bartholomew-Poyser, delivered the music alongside a lineup of special guest vocalists. The BBC Proms is available to watch on BBC iPlayer.
