Next on the agenda, let's take a look at the previous page and see what's coming up next. But before we dive into that, we have a special surprise for you. The talented Elkie Brooks graced the set of This Morning to perform her iconic hit, Sunshine After the Rain. And let me tell you, her fans were not disappointed. At 79 years young, Elkie proved that she's still got it and her fans couldn't agree more.
The renowned blues singer rose to fame in the late 1970s and 1980s with hits like Pearl's a Singer, Fool, and No More the Fool. As she gears up for her upcoming tour, "The Long Farewell," Elkie sat on the blue sofa to chat about her illustrious career. She shared that she still practices singing every day, stating "if you don't use it, you lose it." And judging by her performance, she still thoroughly enjoys it.
After her delightful conversation with hosts Dermot O'Leary and Cat Deeley, Elkie treated viewers to her 1977 hit, hitting every note with her signature husky voice. Fans were quick to take to social media and praise her outstanding performance. "She's still got it at 79 and sounds better than 95% of the singers they put on this show," wrote one fan on X. Radio broadcaster Paul Fairclough also joined in on the praise, saying "almost 80 and can still knock it out of the park."
But the compliments didn't stop there. Viewers were in awe of Elkie's ageless appearance, with many applauding her graceful aging process. "Wow, what a treat hearing Elkie Brooks on This Morning, she is amazing," typed one fan, while others were shocked at her youthful appearance, "WHAT?! Elkie Brooks is 79? She looks so good for her age," remarked another fan.
As the interview continued, Elkie shared some of her secrets for staying youthful. She credits nice creams, a healthy diet, and regular exercise, particularly Aikido, a type of martial arts. Elkie even revealed that she earned her first black belt at the age of 50 and has been practicing regularly ever since. And when it comes to keeping her mind sharp, she enjoys playing games like Wordle and Lingo.
Despite her self-deprecating remarks about having "a line for every year" on her face, the hosts assured her that she looks fantastic. And they're not wrong, as Elkie continues to age gracefully and show the world that she truly is a legend. So, for those wondering, This Morning airs weekdays at 10 am on ITV1. And if you want to catch Elkie on her farewell tour, tickets are available now.
