Cliff Richard says ‘I might be dead next year’ as he shares sad tour update with fans

Iconic singer Cliff Richard says he may have to quit touring after being on the road in 2025 as he tells fans ‘I might be dead the next year’

Sir Cliff Richard says he will probably have to quit touring – and the rock ‘n’ roll singer famous for his hip thrusts may only perform a few dance steps on stage at his upcoming shows.

“I don’t want to be an 85-year-old guy trying to be 18,” he said, admitting that he has started to think about his own mortality. Cliff is performing in Australia and New Zealand before returning to the UK in November, a month after he turns 85.

The singer, known affectionately as the Peter Pan of Pop due to his eternal youth, admits that touring can be exhausting and has started to take its toll. He said: “The thing I would have to give up probably at some time is touring. It’s very wearing, and you never know when you wake up in the morning whether your voice is still there.”

Asked if his upcoming Can’t Stop Me Now tour could be a farewell tour or if he could return, he was undecided.

“I don’t know,” he admitted. “I might be dead the next year! So I don’t even think about it anymore. It’s one of those things. As I get older maybe I’ll become less able to perform, so I can’t say…” However, he does hope to perform some of his trademark dance moves that first endeared him to fans back in the 1950s, when his performances of debut single Move It were deemed “too sexy” for TV.

He is hoping to perform a routine with two backing singers and dancers to his 1962 hit with his former band Cliff Richard and The Shadows, Do You Want To Dance? But acknowledges he is still yet to determine if it will be possible, and hopes to be able to when he starts rehearsals.

He tells New Zealand radio station Coast: “I used to move around a heck of a lot and there was a period when I would get four girl dancers, four guy dancers and I used to dance with them.

“What I don’t want to be is an 85-year-old guy trying to be 18. So, I can still move on stage. And that’s what I do. I’ve got two backing singers, two guys, and they can dance, they can act, they can sing, they can play instruments.

“And I’m going to see, when I get to rehearsals, to just say, ‘let’s talk about maybe doing two songs where you come and join me out front. And while we’re singing something like Do You Want To Dance we do a few steps like that?’

“I don’t want to try and be 18 anymore. I like singing now, I’m as excited now as I was when I came [to New Zealand] last time. And I’m sure the audience will see that we – the big band and I – are friends and almost a family when we’re on tour. So we’ll try and do something that will make it look as though I’m 18! But I’m not.”

Cliff, who has sold more than 260 million records worldwide, has previously said he has no plans to retire, and spoke of his hopes to still be on stage in his 90s.

Cliff’s upcoming Can’t Stop Me Now tour will include two dates at the Royal Albert Hall, where he holds a record for performing 32 dates in two batches. He is also the only artist to have a top 5 album in eight different decades.

Tom Bateman’s ‘secret marriage’ to Daisy Ridley as he lands ‘coincidental’ rom-com role

Tom Bateman is set to star in The Love Hypothesis opposite Lili Reinhart, reimagining the bestselling romance novel written by Ali Hazelwood

Tom Bateman is set to sizzle on screen in The Love Hypothesis, joining forces with Lili Reinhart to bring Ali Hazelwood’s bestselling romance novel to life for Amazon MGM.

He’s stepping into the shoes of Adam Carlsen, a professor entangled in a fauxmance with PhD candidate Olive Smith (portrayed by Reinhart), all to convince her friends she’s not lacking in the love department.

The 2021 book that soared up the New York Times’ bestseller list began its journey as Star Wars fanfiction before Hazelwood gave it a scientific makeover and turned it into the steamy rom-com we know today.

In an intriguing twist of fate – or perhaps a stroke of casting brilliance – Bateman happens to be the other half of Daisy Ridley, who played Rey, the character that sparked the original fanfic alongside her frenemy Kylo Ren (Adam Driver).

As the internet buzzes with excitement over Bateman’s casting, it’s worth delving into his off-screen romance with Ridley, his co-star from The Love Hypothesis, reports the Express.

The pair first crossed paths on the set of The Murder on the Orient Express back in 2017, but they’ve been rather tight-lipped about their relationship.

Despite their discretion, film producer Judy Hofflund couldn’t help but drop hints about their chemistry during the movie’s premiere, saying: “Something kinda happened with Tom and Daisy right?”

And then playfully adding, “That’s public news. I should keep my mouth shut. Oh well.”

They both kept mum about their personal lives until whispers emerged in February 2019 that they had co-signed a lease for a flat in Primrose Hill, London.

Later that year, Ridley was seen sporting what appeared to be an engagement ring but rebuffed any relationship talk with Bateman, even dismissing Marie Curie’s probe about the ring’s significance.

At last, in January 2023, Ridley acknowledged her nuptials during a chat with Rolling Stone, though she kept the finer details under wraps.

Despite their preference for privacy, the celebrated duo isn’t shy about showcasing their union in their professional endeavours.

Their recent joint effort is the 2024 suspense film Magpie, penned and produced by Bateman, with Sam Yates at the helm, inspired by a story idea from Ridley herself.

The plot centres on a marriage teetering on the edge as their daughter, an actress, lands a role opposite a famed actor. Ridley steps into the shoes of Anette, whose spouse Ben (Shazad Latif) becomes smitten with his daughter’s colleague.

The Star Wars lead has been keen to clarify that this gritty thriller doesn’t mirror her real-life romance with Bateman.

In a conversation with Ralphie Aversa from USA Today, she clarified: “I feel like I must assure people that this is not a reflection of our marriage.

“I think you have to be in a very good marriage in order to make a film about a not very good marriage.”

Ridley also shared insights into the creative journey, labelling it as “revealing” and an “amazing endeavour”.

Fans have drawn comparisons between the thriller and Gone Girl, praising Ridley for one of her finest performances, although it’s yet to hit UK screens.

Will there be another collaboration between Ridley and Bateman? Stay tuned.
