The musical icon Elton John celebrated his seventh decade of life with a massive a-list bash last Saturday to benefit the Elton John AIDS Foundation and the UCLA Hammer Museum.
John’s 70th birthday bash at Red Studios in LA was a star-studded affair with a guest list that included Gaga, Wonder, Katy Perry, Jon Hamm, James Corden, Rob Lowe, Roseanne Cash and many more.
Lady Gaga and Stevie Wonder teamed to sing the latter’s ‘Happy Birthday’ to Elton John at the rock legends 70th birthday party in Los Angeles on Saturday.
Gaga and Wonder served up a duet of the ‘Hotter Than July’ track, with Gaga occasionally modifying the lyrics from ‘Happy birthday to you’ to ‘Happy birthday Elton’ for the occasion.
The party, which doubled as a celebration for the 50th anniversary of John’s partnership with songwriter Bernie Taupin, benefitted the Elton John Foundation and the Hammer Museum at UCLA.
In addition to the ‘Happy Birthday’ duet, Gaga performed a piano-only mini-set that included hits like ‘Bad Romance’ and ‘Born This Way’.
