Johnny Rotten had an unexpected reaction to the death of Queen Elizabeth II

However, the tribute may not come as too big a surprise to those who have been following Lydon's interviews in recent years.

In 2017, he spoke about how he would feel about 'God Save the Queen' being used in the eventuality of Elizabeth's demise, and said the song was"about a political situation and the demand for obedience to a monarchy I don’t believe in. But that’s a human being and I would sorely miss her as a human being on planet Earth," he added.

Earlier this year, he had also spoken about his feelings towards the royal family, claiming that he had been misinterpreted. "I’ve got no animosity against any one of the royal family. Never did," he wrote in an Op-Ed for The Times."It’s the institution of it that bothers me and the assumption that I’m to pay for that. There’s where I draw the line."
