Weights and dates! Sir Cliff Richard reveals the photos for his 2024 calendar as the music icon admits they were all taken on a ‘fabulously relaxing cruise’ on his boat
He smashed records with calendar sales last year despite not going topless for the first time.
And Sir Cliff Richard’s new offering looks set to be another best seller.
The 82-year-old has released images for his highly anticipated 2024 calendar, which is expected to gin up his loyal fans for the upcoming release.
The new snaps reveal it’s a cruising theme as the music veteran is seen pulling boat ropes for August’s picture, dancing in a multi coloured top and red trousers on deck for November and giving an ‘aye aye sailor pose’ for January to welcome fans into the New Year.
He also shows he’s still in tip-top shape by lifting dumbbells for February’s photo.

‘All the images in my 2024 official licensed calendar were taken by Robin Williams on a fabulously relaxing cruise earlier this year,’ said Sir Cliff.
‘I have grown to love cruising, it allows me to relax and regroup, sometimes prep for new projects, and above all, to socialise with friends who join me on ship.’
‘This calendar was fun to produce and allowed me to be creative in terms of where and how to take the images,’ he continued. ‘I am pleased with the result, it’s not me on stage or in a studio, and I hope you enjoy it too.’
Last year the singer left fans disappointed when he announced that he would be breaking with tradition by not stripping for his calendars going forward.
Fans had become accustomed to him posing topless, as he did in a swimming pool in 2022.
‘I suspect I have done my final topless photo for my annual calendar… it’s time to gracefully exit the Chippendales market,’ he said.

However, it did not affect sales as pre-orders went ‘through the roof. Cliff’s fans clearly love him clothed, as well as unclothed!’ an insider told The Mirror last year.
Since the crooner released his first calendar in 1979, total sales have topped 1.5 million, according to his website.
Along with Sir Cliff, Elvis Presley’s calendar is also more sought-after than modern artists, including Harry Styles, Taylor Swift and kylie Minogue.
The late king of rock’n’roll was second to Sir Cliff in music calendar sales, according to Calendar Club.
Sir Cliff’s 2024 calendar is now available for pre-order at danilo.com.
