Michael J. Fox Joins Coldplay Onstage

Michael J. Fox has joined Coldplay onstage during their headlining set at the Glastonbury Festival. 

Introducing the acting legend, band frontman Chris Martin said, "With his Chuck Berry riff and the way he punched Biff: ladies and gentlemen, please welcome Michael J. Fox." 

The band then played Humankind before Michael stayed onstage to strum a guitar during Fix You. 

For the portion of show, Michael remained in a wheelchair as a result of his diagnosis of Parkinson's Disease. He was diagnosed back in 1991. 

After the performances, Chris Martin gave a shoutout to Michael for the role he played in shaping his career as a musician.


“The main reason we’re in a band is because of Back to the Future. So thank you to Michael, our hero.”

Michael has previously paired with Coldplay, performing Johnny B. Goode in New Jersey back in July 2016. 

This Glastonbury Festival performance of Coldplay marks their fifth time headlining the event. 

Earlier in the night, they brought out rapper Little Simz as a surprise guest.

Chris Martin's fiancée, Dakota Johnson, was spotting watching the performances on a live stream from the event.
