Elton praises John Legend after Leonardo DiCaprio's bash
Thursday, July 23 2015

Elton John has made a brand new friend in fellow piano man John Legend.

The pair formed a bond after they shared the stage at Leonardo DiCaprio's charity gala in Saint Tropez on July 22, 2015. It's believed that the twosome were part of the entertainment at the fundraiser to gather contributions to the Leonardo DiCaprio Foundation.

But even though 68-year-old Elton has decades of experience under his belt, it was him who gushed about his fellow performer during the evening. Elton took to Instagram to share a heartfelt message about his new American pal with his 169,000 followers. He wrote: "Such a honour to share the stage with the incredibly talented John Legend. And a joy to raise money to help save our planet for the Leonardo DiCaprio Foundation. @johnlegend @leonardodicapriofoundation @ejaf #ShareTheLove."

Along with the kind words, Elton also posted a snap of the duo while they socialised in the swanky venue. It featured both singers sat around the sat table while wearing snazzy suits with relaxed open collars.

The star-studded event raised a massive $25 million to help protect the earth and included an A-list guestlist. Amongst those in attendance were Orlando Bloom, Irina Shayk and Michelle Rodriguez.
