Popular 1990s girl band, The Spice Girls, have also been confirmed to perform. Photos of the girls, now women, rehearsing for the event have been taken and so far it appears like it's going to be a standout performance. The Spice Girls were photographed dancing atop black London taxis, so a rendition of their biggest hit, "Wannabe," seems certain.
The Who, Muse and Ed Sheeran have all said they will take part in a show that will include performances of 30 British hit singles from the past five decades.
At the very end of the Olympics closing ceremony, the Olympic Flame, which has been burning in the stadium since the opening ceremony, is extinguished, marking the official end of the 2012 Games.
The British Olympic Association has announced there will be a victory parade through London in September, after the close of the Paralympic Games which run from Aug. 29-Sept. 9.
The closing ceremony will air in on NBC in prime time on Sunday from 7 to 10:38 p.m. EST. It will not be broadcasted live so what you can expect is an edited version, just like how NBC aired the opening ceremony.
