Chubby Checker reveals he's skipping his Rock & Roll Hall of Fame induction ceremony: ‘We're not coming'

A major twist. Rock and Roll legend Chubby Checker is skipping his Rock & Roll Hall of Fame induction ceremony to prove he's 'still alive' after waiting over three decades to join the exclusive music club. Checker, 83, revealed at a recent show that he will not attend the honors in Los Angeles on Nov. 8 because he will be rocking out on stage at a different gig.

'When I told my manager, I said 'make sure when we go to the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, the induction, that I will be doing what I love doing the most – being in front of an audience, a live audience, not a television audience,' the music icon told a crowd of fans, according to video posted to social media on July 29.

The Grammy Award winner had yet to be nominated until this year.

'Getting back to being an 'older person,'' Checker explained to the crowd. 'Chubby goes to the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame and they say 'he's an old guy, he's probably retired, he's not doing anything, maybe he has crutches, he's coming to the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame to get his little award and go back home,'' the musician mocked. The singer wasn't fond of appearing in front of a digital audience, instead opting for a real-life crowd. 'Let's be doing a show like I'm doing today to show that I'm alive and well,' Checker said. 'And the audience is wonderful and my dream is still being fulfilled and the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame is happening all at the same time.'

Checker held onto that title for over a decade until the magazine republished the list in 2021 and declared The Weeknd's 'Blinding Lights' as the new Hot 100 Song of all time.
