The woman sitting behind John Paul Jones who you disparage is his wife, Maureen. They married in 1967 and have 3 daughters. At this tribute she was 45 years older than she was on their wedding day- about 66, roughly the same age as her husband and Page & Plant were. I suppose we could all make snarky comments about how much ‘better-looking’ older women, and men, were 45 years ago? Personally, I think Maureen is as beautiful as she ever was, and I’d bet you John Paul would agree. Your reaction was entertaining, Dad, but that remark was uncalled for. And it sets a bad example for your young daughter who will, herself, look very different 45 years from now. I hope when that day comes she has a life partner by her side who sees her as the dazzling lady that person fell in love with all those decades ago.

Well said. I love her little cameo in The Song Remains the Same. She seems like a wonderful person.

Led Zeppelin's lead singer, Robert Plant, was brought to tears because of the drummer, Jason Bonham. Jason is the son of John Bonham, the band's original drummer and Robert's best friend, whose death in 1980 resulted in the end of the band. They had invited Jason to represent his Dad at this ceremony honoring Led Zeppelin. But Jason told them he had a scheduling conflict. The conflict turned out to be walking out on stage to surprise the band by playing the drums during the tribute. Look at how surprised and happy Robert is when they introduced Jason at the beginning. The tears came as Robert thought about his friend and was sad he could not be there. It's also very poignant to watch Jason look up toward heaven, thinking undoubtedly about his Dad, as Anne sings the word heaven in last line of the song.

So amazing 🤩

An interesting side note for this performance... Robert Plant is Jason Bonham's godfather, and had invited him to attend the Kennedy Center Honors as his guest. Jason, who had already agreed to surprise the band by playing with Heart (in fact, he is playing his father's session kit...and he also wore John's iconic bowler) outright lied to Robert, saying that he had already committed to a gig in Los Angeles that night. If you get the chance, there are other versions of this video which include Jason being introduced just before Ann & Nancy Wilson, and the look of surprised joy on Robert Plant's face is unbelievably heartwarming.

Apologies if this was already posted but the Kennedy Center Honors are awarded every year to a handful of exceptional artists, actors, comedians, etc. It's a national endowment for the arts and the award is similar to a lifetime achievement award. Recipients wear a rainbow sash and it's quite a prestigious honor.

Okay, for those of you who are not from the US: the Kennedy Center Honors are sort of the US equivalent of conferring knighthood upon an entertainer. Traditionally the President and First Lady attend, and it's essentially the nation recognizing entertainers for their lifetime achievement in the arts. Among some of the big names in the audience with the Obamas are famous cellist Yo Yo Ma, singer/songwriter Bonnie Raitt, dance legend Debbie Allen, and comedian Stephen Colbert.

Led Zeppelin was being honored for their contributions to music. One reason Robert Plant teared up was because he was thinking of his best friend John Bonham and watching his Godson playing his dads drum kit.

Robert Plant is Jason Bonham's Godfather. He surprised him/them by being there. He told them he couldn't make it. So it was twice as emotional seeing him behind his Dad's kit (or replica) and wearing the same (type) Bowler hat as John "Bonzo" wore. That's why the second choir group has them on.
