Viswanathan Anand Attends Lollapalooza, Sings Along With Legendary Sting

Chess legend Viswanathan Anand grabbed the limelight at Lollapalooza 2024 by enthusiastically singing along in the crowd during iconic singer Sting's performance on stage. He delivered classic lines from The Police's hit song "Roxanne," and a video capturing Mr Anand's joyous moment went viral, prompting widespread applause on the internet.

Mr Anand took to social media platform X to share his fanboy moment, he wrote, "When I was very young, songs like "Every Breath You Take" and "Roxanne" by The Police made a huge impression on me. Fast forward to now, and I can say I know most of their songs and Sting's solo albums as well. They've been a constant on my playlist over the years."
