The new king’s coronation celebrations continued on Sunday with a huge concert at Windsor Castle featuring Lionel Richie, Olly Murs, Tom Cruise, Take That and Katy Perry.
The American singer, who the day before had managed to get lost in Westminster Abbey during the coronation ceremony, made several spectators uneasy during her performance of her classic hit “Firework”, according to The Independent.

While the crowd seemed to have enjoyed Perry’s performance, there was one moment in his performance that raised some eyebrows.
In his song “Firework,” Perry sings the line: “you just gotta ignite the light. And let it shine. Just own the night. Like the Fourth of July.” (“You gotta turn on the light. And let it shine. Own the night. Like the 4th of July.”)
For those who need a quick recap of history, the United States celebrates Independence Day on July 4, which marks the date America became liberated from the British in 1776.
Quickly, netizens took to their Twitter account to comment on the performance and the goofy lyrics.
