Elton John Raises 2.5 Million For Hilary Clinton


Today's entertainment gossip is that Last night pop legend Elton John performed for a sold out crowd at Radio City Music Hall. The concert was a benefit to raise money for the failing Hilary Clinton campaign and raise money it did, $2.5 million.

The cheapest seats for the concert cost $125 and $250 and sold out very fast the other seats costing as much as $2,300 were also sold. Elton John said he has always been a Clinton supporter and that he believes there’s no one more qualified to lead America. But what does he really care? He’s an English citizen.

After Elton John’s performance Hilary Clinton, former President Bill Clinton and daughter Chelsea Clinton took the stage and Hillary made this statement, "What I want you to know is I'm still standing, and I believe this country is worth fighting for. So we're taking our campaign to Pennsylvania and all the states that haven't voted."

The Pennsylvania primary is April 22 and we’ll see if the money raised from the Elton John concert helps the Clinton campaign.

That's your entertainment gossip for now.
