00:00Legendary musician Elton John just shared he had THE BEST evening with fellow queer
00:05icon Chappelle Roan.
00:07Elton John came out as bisexual in a 1976 interview with Rolling Stone, a bold move
00:12during a time when such openness was rare.
00:15John coming out marked a significant moment in his career and personal life, contributing
00:19to the broader conversation on sexual orientation and acceptance.
00:23Later in the 1980s, John came out as gay.
00:26Throughout his career, John has been an outspoken advocate for LGBTQ rights, using his platform
00:32to promote equality and support the community.
00:35Chappelle Roan has been taking a similar approach when it comes to using her platform for advocacy.
00:40Roan famously has local drag queens open for her at her concerts to promote fellow queer
00:43artists, and speaks openly about discovering her sexuality both in interviews and in her
00:48music.
00:49Back in May, Roan was a guest on John's radio show Rocket Hour, where he expressed
00:53his excitement for the star, sharing,
00:55"'I'm as excited about your album's success as you are.
00:58It's wonderful to see true talent being recognized."
01:01And fans were over the moon to see their friendship blossoming even more over a recent pizza dinner,
01:06which Elton John posted about while gushing over Roan, writing,
01:09"'The best evening of pizza and outrageous laughter with the fiercely fabulous Chappelle
01:14Roan.
01:15Love her, love her, love her.'"
