Elton John

Sir Elton John is one of the most influential musicians in history, selling more than 300 million records and creating timeless hits like Rocket Man, Tiny Dancer, and Your Song. After years of keeping parts of his personal life private, he came out publicly in the late 1980s and has since become a tireless advocate for LGBTQ+ rights and HIV/AIDS awareness through the Elton John AIDS Foundation. Married to filmmaker David Furnish and the father of two sons, Elton's remarkable career has earned him Grammy, Oscar, Tony, and Emmy Awards—making him one of the few entertainers to achieve EGOT status. His story is one of extraordinary talent, resilience, reinvention, and living authentically. Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/forgotten-queers--6719466/support.
