Elton has received the Impact Award at iHeartRadio‘s Can’t Cancel Pride – Proud and Together event.Â
Â
Host Jojo Siwa and special guest performer Lizzo paid tribute to the composer before he accepted the trophy.
Â
”I adore these two women,” Elton said. Thank you Jojo for your joy and spirit as a member of this community and thank you Lizzo for such an incredible tribute performance. Thanks also to iHeart and P&G. This award is such an honour for me.”
Â
The 75-year-old also says {iheart.com/content/cant-cancel-pride/} it’s important not to ”let the clock move backwards. We can’t fear rules, and we must fight to be ourselves. So I offer you all the same advice I gave my two young sons: ‘Be yourself, push the envelope, and ruffle feathers where you need to.”
Â
For those who didn’t catch this or want to do so again, Can’t Cancel Pride will be available on-demand until the 30th of June on iHeartRadio‘s YouTube, Facebook and Revry.
