LOS ANGELES — Ringo Starr, the iconic drummer of The Beatles, is reflecting on his extraordinary journey in the latest installment of “On The Red Carpet: ICONS.”

“Our music resonates with every new generation,” he remarked.

At 85, Starr continues to shine as a music legend. It was during the transformative era of the 1960s that he, alongside John Lennon, Paul McCartney, and George Harrison, rose to fame as part of one of the most groundbreaking and celebrated bands in history.

Even after 55 years since the dissolution of The Beatles, their legacy endures, as evidenced by their recent Grammy win for the track, “Now and Then.”

“We’ve been selling records and now, a billion streams a week or more, it just keeps going!” Starr shared with On The Red Carpet, emphasizing the timeless appeal of their music.

Ringo’s achievements are all the more remarkable considering he battled life-threatening illnesses during his childhood.

“Three times they told me, I’ll be dead in the morning,” Ringo explained. “So, I think the universe had some sort of plan for me.”

Recently, that plan has included an ongoing tour with his popular supergroup, “Ringo Starr & His All-Star Band,” and this year, a number one country album, “Look Up.”

“I love the atmosphere of ‘Look Up,’” Ringo said. “We’re not looking down all the time. Let’s look up. It’s much better for you.”

On The Red Carpet’s George Pennacchio also asked Ringo about the phrase “peace and love,” which has become like a mantra.

“We were around the ’60s and so was flower power and that’s really where it came from,” Ringo explained. “And it was such a great time to be around.”

In recent years, Ringo has made his birthday an annual celebration of peace and love after someone asked him what he wanted from his fans.

“And I don’t know where it came from,” he said. “I’d like them to go, ‘peace and love,’ and we did.”

In this special episode of “On The Red Carpet,” Ringo also talks about his artwork that benefits his charity, The Lotus Foundation, what he told Prince William when he was knighted, his thoughts on reuniting with Paul McCartney, his advice for Barry Keoghan who’s playing him in an upcoming movie and more!
