Looks like the Rocket Man just got on the gravy train.

Reports say that Sir Elton John will be receiving a cool $1 million for a Thanksgiving day, one-hour performance at a private 50th birthday blowout bash for self-help DVD king Andrew Reynolds, to be held at London's Hampton Court Palace.

Reynolds, also one of England's top philanthropists, is a big fan of the tubby Lord, and apparently doesn't mind shelling out $83,000 for every five minutes Elton sings.

1. Must be nice, on both ends of the coin.

I guess it's a win-win for both of them.

Elton John and I are bd buddies (March 25th), so he's cool in my book. :D I respect the good work he's done with his AIDS charity. :thumbsup:

Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours, Human Torch! :hi: Enjoy....
