Writing on social media, the US star said: “After finishing one of the shows of Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat in Edinburgh, Scotland, I walked out of the stage door and lo and behold, look what happened...”

In the video, the legendary singer then turns the camera to reveal a large crowd of fans waiting for him who cheer and then sing Happy Birthday to him.

Osmand then says in a Scottish accent ‘It’s a great Scottish birthday’.

Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat runs at the Edinburgh Playhouse until December 29.
