Elton to sing for Hillary

Sir Elton John has thrown his formidable superstar weight behind Hillary Clinton.

Come April 9, and the 60-year-old rock legend will perform solo for the first time in New York City's Radio City Music Hall since a Madison Square Garden performance in 2000.

The event is called Elton And Hillary: One Night Only.

'I'm not a politician but I believe in the work that Hillary Clinton does,' John said. 'I'm excited to support Hillary by performing at what will be a truly memorable night.'
