Yet gig-goers at American vocalist Iggy Pop’s Lust For Life showcase were then gobsmacked to see the 78 year old topless inside.
He was then wheeled off to a host of cheers.
The Michigan-born star, a former member of punk band the Stooges, posted the dramatic clip to his page on X with the caption: “London was a hoot! How you exit is equally important to how you enter.”
One fan was quick to comment: “Only Iggy … may he long reign.”
A second posted: “Fantastic! You are Master!” as a third gushed: “Always that smile…mischievous charmer.”
One then put: “F**kin love you Iggy!!”
The wild man of rock, who was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall Of Fame in 2010, played the venue on May 28.
He kicked off the gig with Stooges track TV Eye and rattled through 20 tracks.
He wrapped with tune Funtime after a cover version of The Dee Jays track Real Wild Child.
OFF STAGE
Iggy previously revealed the way he relaxes off-stage – and it has nothing to do with a coffin.
Last year, he opened up about the two things that gave him pleasure during his rock prime – Baths and rubber ducks.
He said: “I like baths, sometimes with a rubber duck and bubbles – yeah definitely bubbles.”
The punk icon made the revelation at a listening party at Cannes Film Festival, hosted by Magnum, adding: “Sometimes I get really upset if it’s getting late in the day and I think to myself that I haven’t done anything I really like.
“And music is what gives me pleasure you know, well music and the sea.
“That’s my default setting, so I’m always putting my pleasure first – I can get really desperate to seek pleasure – and when that happens usually it means someone takes me to the beach.
“Chill for me is about 95 per cent of life, I’m chill all the time.”
Iggy went on to confirm the two main elements he now needs to make him feel euphoric – love and privacy – adding: “If I get both of those in one day, then it’s WOW.”
