Sir Elton John recently made his first public appearance at the premiere of a documentary about his life, after admitting that an eye infection had affected his vision. During the event, he was asked about his thoughts on former President Donald Trump using one of his song lyrics. Sir Elton surprisingly responded with praise, calling it "brilliant" and commending Trump for his support at his concerts over the years.
The iconic musician also clarified that his positive comment did not mean he endorsed Trump in his campaign against Vice-President Kamala Harris. Sir Elton made it clear that he does not use his stage to influence people's political beliefs, but rather focuses on entertaining and expressing his gratitude to his fans.
Sir Elton and Trump have known each other for years, with the former even living in Atlanta for some time before moving back to the UK last year. However, after praising Trump, Sir Elton added a caveat, stating that there is a danger in the current state of the US, describing it as "volatile." He expressed his love for the country and his hope for a safer and more accepting future.
The 77-year-old musician also shared his views on the upcoming election, urging people to vote for what is just and important to them, such as the right to choose and be themselves. He also emphasized the significance of the Supreme Court in shaping the country's future.
Despite his positive remarks towards Trump, Sir Elton made it clear that love is his main message and that he hopes to see it return to America, which he believes has been lost in the past 12 years. He recently retired from touring and is focusing on healing from his eye infection, which has left him partially blind in one eye.
