Elton John, Rod Stewart, and the English National Ballet were just some of the dozens of performers who paid tribute to Britain's late Princess Diana in London Sunday on what would have been her 46th birthday.

Her sons, Princes WIlliam and Harry, hosted the memorial concert amid high security at Wembley Stadium.

They said the concert celebrated what their mother loved in life - music, dance, charity, and her friends and family.

William said he does not want Diana's charitable activities for victims of AIDS and landmines to be forgotten.

Princess Diana and her boyfriend, Dodi Fayed, were killed in an automobile crash in Paris in August,1997.
