Elton gives a leg-up for his pal Billy's art
August 22, 2025
|Daily Express
SIR Billy Connolly has chosen Sir Elton John as a muse for his art - and unveiled a portrait of the star who gave him a break in the 1970s.
The comedian, 82, today releases four new limited edition works depicting some fond memories.
Saturday Night shows a piano player, with Sir Billy saying the character “does that leg thing which is pure Elton”.
Speaking about opening for the Rocket Man singer in 1976, he added: “It was that point of the show where he backheeled the stool and it tumbled off the stage.
“The roadies all dived so that it didn’t break.
“I saw Elton lately and he was better than I’ve ever seen him. He’s an amazing performer.”
