Our dad, sadly, isn’t around anymore, but….
This weekend we had the very special opportunity to meet our beloved Poppa Elton, whom we love love love.
We feel this connection with the legendary Brit. He’s definitely a kindred spirit! From the wild outfits and his propensity to say even wilder things, Elton was like the original us, only infinitely more talented.
We took the whole fam to see Poppa’s spectacular David LaChapelle-directed show at the Colosseum and were able to meet him after.
Elton welcomed us to his dressing room with a big, genuine hug. He was so warm and sweet and all-around more lovely than we could have hoped for.
Cuz, as we all know, sometimes when you meet people you admire, they disappoint. Thankfully this wasn’t one of those instances!
Of course, we had to talk music with Poppa Elton, who is always up-to-date on the latest and greatest.
He’s loving Hercules and Love Affair. We’re loving Alphabeat.
We discussed Madonna – they’re cool – and we also talked about Lily Allen!
Did you know that Elton has his own management company that manages other artists??? Yup! And the trainwreck known as Lily Allen is now one of his clients.
We told him he has a lot of work cut out for him to turn that mess around. We shared some laughs.
We shared more hugs.
We had a great, great time!
Give lots of hugs to YOUR dad today. And thank him from Perez for raising such a fine, super smart, super sexy, super amazing person like U.
xoxo
[Many many thanks to Elton and everyone on his team, as well as Glenn Miller and all of our friends at AEG for helping make our sister’s birthday so truly special.]
