Michael J. Fox

An actor with Parkinson's disease made a guest appearance at a Coldplay concert during the Glastonbury festival. He played the guitar while seated in a wheelchair.

Coldplay headlined Glastonbury, one of the largest music festivals. At one point, Chris Martin, the lead singer (and former husband of actress Gwyneth Paltrow), introduced the "legendary Michael." Michael J. Fox joined the band, playing guitar to songs like "Humankind" and "Fix You".

Tens of thousands of people welcomed the actor with shouts and applause. The finale of "Fix You" was moving: lights sparkled in the audience, and fireworks were set off from behind the stage. See this emotional moment:

Michael J. Fox's illness

Legendary actor Michael J. Fox is mainly known for his role as Marty McFly in the film "Back to the Future". Unfortunately, his career and personal life have been marked by his battle with Parkinson's disease, which was diagnosed at a young age.

Career and diagnosis

Michael J. Fox appeared on screen as early as 15, playing Leo's nephew in the "Leo and Me" sitcom. However, his role as Marty McFly in Back to the Future earned him worldwide recognition. The film's success made him one of the most recognisable actors of his generation. Unfortunately, in 1991, when he was just 29 years old, he was diagnosed with Parkinson's disease.

Living with the disease, support from loved ones

Although the diagnosis of Parkinson's disease was a huge shock, Michael J. Fox managed to survive the tough times thanks to the support of his wife, Tracy Pollan. The couple, who married in 1988, had to face numerous challenges. Initially, Fox denied his condition, leading him to turn to alcohol and drugs. It was only years later that the actor accepted his disease and decided to use his fame to raise awareness about Parkinson's. In 2000, he founded a foundation that has raised over 965 million euros for research into the disease.
