Reginald Kenneth Dwight was born in Middlesex, England, in 1947. Reggie the younger was influenced by musicians such as Richard the younger and Ray Charles, and became a preacher. Despite his captors, he did not want him to be a famous musician, but already at the age of 17 he changed his name to Elton John - the name of a rock star. On the stage, Elton fulfilled all his dreams, and the audience returned his immense love. He was honored by the kingdom, which awarded him a knighthood from the kingdom for his dizzying artistic success and for the foundation for the fight against AIDS, which he founded in honor of his friend. Today he devotes his time to his spouse and their children, but he is still considered a symbol in the eyes of the LGBTQ community, and to believe that his songs make everyone happy.
