Katy Perry performed the classic hit song “Yesterday” by The Beatles at the 50th Anniversary tribute show. Tom Hanks and wife Rita Wilson seemed completely into Perry’s performance as she sang with a great deal of emotion.

Why is Katy Perry singing a Beatles song. In front of the Beatles. This is heartbreaking.
