Sir Elton John: He will miss his Oscar event

Sir Elton John will miss the Oscars event for his AIDS Foundation this year due to a scheduling conflict.

The party in Los Angeles, with which Sir Elton John (74, “Rocketman”) collects money for his AIDS foundation every year on the night of the Oscar award ceremony, will probably have to do without him personally for the first time in 30 years. Because there are overlapping appointments, his husband David Furnish (59) will take over the moderation.

The Oscars were postponed from February to March 27, but by then the British superstar was back on his “Farewell Yellow Brick Road” tour.

Back and forth because of Corona

, the musician did not want to disappoint his fans after the tour had previously been postponed due to the corona pandemic. Elton John himself is said to be very disappointed that he cannot be at the party. When his tour dates were rescheduled, he is said to have kept the first date of the Oscars extra free. Now he will be on stage at the new Oscar date in Nebraska.

The annual Oscar party has so far raised many millions for his AIDS foundation. The Brit had just resumed his tour on January 20 when he returned to the stage in New Orleans after a nearly two-year hiatus.

Sir Elton John and Canadian David Furnish have been married since 2014.
