Sir Paul McCartney set to opening London 2012


Viewers all over the planet will see music legend Sir Paul McCartney headline the opening ceremony in London.

The Beatle told bosses he’s “up for” playing at the spectacular on July 27 but song choices and detailed plans still need to be finalised. Bosses had hoped to reunite Macca, 69, with Beatle Ringo Starr but he will be touring the US.

There was further disappointment for organisers when The Rolling Stones ruled themselves out of the show.

Led Zeppelin were also approached and although guitarist Jimmy Page was keen, singer Robert Plant was said to be “not interested”. An industry source said: “The hope was to have the cream of British music all in the line-up but it now looks like Macca will be joined by some younger stars on stage. But of all the people you would want, McCartney is number one. He is the ultimate showman and guaranteed to get the Olympics off to a great start.”

Macca set tongues wagging this month when he told a US chat show: “I hear there’s a rumour that I might be involved.”

Daughter Stella McCartney is already involved, designing the British kit.

3 HITS Macca might play:
1 Hey Jude
2 Live And Let Die
3 Twist and Shout
4 A Hard Day’s Night
5 When I’m 64
6 Here Comes The Sun
7 Strawberry Field Forever.
