Elton John might sing at upcoming royal weddingSir Elton John, a favorite of the late Princess Diana, has revealed that he could perform at Prince William's upcoming wedding to Kate Middleton, reports the Daily Mail - but possibly not in the way you'd think. Asked during a recent Radio 2 interview if he would be singing at the April 29, 2011, ceremony at London's Westminster Abbey, John replied, "I probably am," before joking, "I'll probably be busking outside." The 63-year-old superstar was good friends with William's late mother and famously performed a reworked version of his classic "Candle in the Wind" at her 1997 funeral.
While John may have a bit of history with the Royal Family, he insists that he will not write about them when he kicks off his gig as a guest editor for The Independent newspaper. "There’s not going to be much about the royal wedding in there," he says. "I think we’ve had enough of that for the time being."

IM HAPPY FOR THEM. I THINK SOME PEOPLE SHOULD JUST BE HAPPY FOR THEM.IF ELTON JOHN WANTS TO SING FOR THEM LET HIM . AND FOR CRAZY CHUCH PEOPLE YOU GUYS ARE ALWAY ARE FIRST TO JUGE ANYONE AND WHAT SO GREAT ABOUT YOU? AND HAVE YOU EVER HELPED ANYONE IN YOUR LIFE OR JUST JUDGED THEM.
Does anyone know proper grammer? This painful to read. If you are wanting to come across smart when writting...take a refresher ENGLISH course! Your teachers are mortified right now!!!
Regardless of what anyone thinks Elton John is one of the best, and if I could I would have him sing at my next wedding which will be soon....
He's the right man for the job for sure. If they want him let them have him, he is a living legend. Camelot Marquees
many of you guys are so blinded that you aren't aware that sky is trying to do good for your souls. people love to say that you are judging when you are trying to present the gospel that will save souls from hell. there is a time to use judgement- thank God for it or the gospel would never be delivered. this feels like throwing pearls to swine- be careful lest they the dogs turn back and gnash you with their teeth. i'm glad to say I don't fit in with the year 2010. I am not of this world and I am so very thankful.
You all need to butt a stump. Whos wedding is this anyway not yalls.I say more power to them and to do exactly what they want to congradulations are in order as far as i cocerned
Thank-you to ALL that have commented. Sky thanks for Talking the Talk and Walking the Walk. Why are we beating each other up over this. All we can do is Pray for everyone regardless of their views. Honoring Di in thie manner in having Elton John sing at their wedding however why are we beating each other up over this.
Peace out!!
Such a beautiful couple, as time will tell. Wonder what the other Queen would say...perhaps "have a ball"? Why not a change, invite the off springs of Mary Queen of Scotts such as Tony Stewart and I, of which my Grandfather's were the half brother of Queen Mary. I enjoy Elton John's music, so perhaps Elton John and I be invited to the Royal Wedding.
Maybe he might sing a special number or perform at their reception!!!
Yes william and harry's mother died when they were young children. yes william is getting married and is going to have everyone in the world able to view his wedding and i am happy for him if its actually for love, but i still have two qustions. First question is why are will and harry different from any other child who has lost a good hearted parent? and secondly why is his marriage any different from the average joe? you dont see news stations trying to film our weddings. shouldnt a wedding be for friends and family? just asking
I honestly believe William needs some happiness in his life with all he had to go thru as a youth along with his mothers death his was/is one of the best Princess in England the world loved her all the riches couldn't make her happy, but her kids made her happy so to all do not judge let God be the Judge to Judge wrong makes you a sinner THE FIRST PERSON WITH OUT SIN CAST THE FIRST STONE we all are sinners we were born in this sinful world. I'm very happy for William may GOD BLESS HIM and his marriage
@ Lynds – "enought" bible thumper
@ Rose – True meaning of christmas, has nothing to do with giving gifts
stop your silly preaching
@ Me – "we don't care"
@Dmk – Quoting the bible is "hilarious"
@ Parislily – "shut-Up" religious Freak
so concern about the church, screw you
FACT: FIRST LET ME ADDRESS ALL OF THE ABOVE.....I THINK EVERY PERSON GOD HAS CREATED ON
THIS EARTH IS ROYAL. WHY? BECAUSE JESUS DIED FOR US ALL.
WHEN SOMEONES TELLS ME THEY ARE CHRISTIANS AND
BELONG TO THE HOLY CHURCH, I EXPECT THEM TO
WALK THE WALK AND TALK THE TALK.-
I KNOW PEOPLE WHO ARE SO POOR, BUT THEY
TRULY LIVE THE LIFE OF A CHRISTIAN AND WHEN THEY
WANT TO GET MARRIED IN THE CHURCH, THEY DON'T
EVEN HAVE THE MONEY. SO THEY GO TO THE COURTS
BUT THE CHURCH DOES NOT HONOR THEIR MARRAGE.
BUT NOW THE "RICH PERSON" THEY HAVE NO MORAL
BUT THEY HAVE THE MONEY....AND THEIR MARRAGE
IS HONORABLE.
I BLAME THE CHURCH FOR THIS......AND I BLAME
ALL THE CHRISTIANS WHO WERE BAPTIZED AS
CHRISTIANS BECAUSE THEY HAD A JOB TO DO
AND THEY DON'T EVEN KNOW IT., JESUS SAID HE WOULD
BE WITH THEM "ALL THE DAYS UNTIL THE CONCLUSION OF THE SYSTEM OF THINGS"
WHAT WAS THE JOB...."TO GO AND MAKE DISCIPLES OF PEOPLE OF ALL THE
NATIONS.....MATTHEW 28:19-10
Hope he will
I think the real entertainment falls with the comments ppl leave
Okay I'm officially creeped out after reading these posts. I think Sky is making human sacrifices in his basement!
Thank to everyone that help me to findgood love in my life because send me ahubby in my life now he is my new man in my life now.

I've read so many posts since CNN started doing this-and I don't understand why people cannot stay on subject. There's always some wackadoodle who starts up about politics or religion (and usually cursing evil on everyone)whether or not it's even relevant. This is an entertainment piece about Elton John performing at the Royal Wedding! Comment about the story at hand or just shut up and slowly back away from the keyboard.
Oh please Wills and Kate, no Elton John. We've had enough, let's make this wedding the classy affair you deserve...choose someone else, please. Elton John is a good singer, yes. I'm not dissing the guy. It's just time to let other true talent shine. HOW ABOUT SUSAN BOYLE? NOW THERE'S A GREAT CHOICE!
@SKY- enough dude...we get it, you're a bible thumper! Maybe YOU should take some time & re-read the Bible as you are commiting some of the BIGGEST offenses in The Book!
@rose- maybe you forgot what page you were on, but this article has NOTHING to do with the current state of the world! You've clearly forgotten the TRUE meaning of Christmas, seeing as it has little to NOTHING to do with giving gifts! Unless you've taken a 2nd or 3rd job STRICTLY to donate ALL profits/pay to charity, get off your high-horse & stop with your silly preaching!
@me- WE DON'T CARE IF YOU DON'T BELIEVE IN GOD!! Do you want a cookie because of it?! Why don't you learn how to use PUNCTUATION instead of creating ridiculous run-on sentences?!

Top Story! Weekly a Topical Sketch show in LA did a sketch on this actually happening.
Check out the outcome.
@Sara its 2010 I have two beautiful girls out of wedlock God blessed me with these children when he knew I
was ready....@Cabbage you are a religious lunatic@whatsamattau I have my own demons to fight.
@Christ throw scriptures start arguments@BoneCrusha make it porfitable@Cosmo corinthians 1:3 calls a person
a nut@Me not everyone believes in God @Burn burn in hell you are perfect timber@Caroline the bible is fairy tales
written by men.
FACT: I AM A FOOL BECAUSE OF THE CHRIST. BUT YOU ARE DESCREET.
I AM WEAK, BUT YOU ARE STRONG
YOU ARE OF GOOD REPUTATION
ME I AM IN DISHONOR
WHEN BEING REVILED, WE BLESS
WHEN BEING PERSECUTED, WE ENDURE
WHEN DEFAMED, WE BLESS
WE ARE THE REFUSE OF THIS WICKED WORLD, UNTIL NOW......1CORINTHIANS 4:10-13
Everyone needs to just take a chill pill. Sky – you DO sound like a member of the Westboro Baptist Church!
You convert by being a friend first, not by condemning.
Everyone has their own demons to fight – EVERYONE! We should concentrate on commonalities and not on differences.
Nuff Sed.
Really ppl....were gonna turn this into a religious debate? Bible thumpers move aside, its 2010 for crying out loud! I have 2 beautiful little girl OUT OF WEDLOCK! R u trying to say that I along with my children are going to hell? God blessed me with these children when he knew I was ready! DONT preach to me cuz I know God loves me & my girls for who we are! He made us, He created us & only He can judge us!
I agree with caroline
OMG! Really? Show some respect. Just be happy for the couple. If he sings, that is their business. I'm happy for them. They look so happy. Please, don't drag in other peoples lives in this or throw scriptures at people to start arguements. Jesus didn't intend for that use.
Anyway, I love Eltons songs. I hope he can for Diane and her son. What a way to put her in a place where he can remember his mom and put her in his special day.
Religion the original pyramid scheme! Hope you get enough people under you to make it profitable sky.
"can you feel the love tonight...."
I wish everyone all the best
@ Sky: Thanks Sky. I Agree With You. God Bless You For Standing For The Truth With People Have Been Blinded From. Btw, Its Not Judgment, Its Speaking The Truth With Love. Its The Truth. Dont Mind Them, They Dont Know What They Do. 😦
DOES ANYONE KNOW WHERE I CAN FIND SOME ALL-CAPS BIBLE VERSES??? Because that would be cool. All the best to the soon to be married!
this is gay's crap!!! try better this http://www.SUPERSONIC.US.COM !!!
Sky is probably from that crazy church in Kansas
Yo, Sky...are we having fun yet???
Ok enough with the bible reciting! Not everyone believes in god and that is offensive! And since you seem so closed minded do you just live under a rock with no tv you have internet so it makes no sense why your so closed minded get a life people
Maybe his new song will be "William in the Wind..."
All the money and glamour ....how many people are homeless righ now, how many kids don't have presents this Christmas.? Give that money to the homeless and the hungry. That would be a cover story.
GTFO THE ENTERTAINMENTS SECTION IF YOUR GONNA CRY ABOUT DUMB STUFF
Who cares about a "Royal Wedding" when there's hunger and poberty all around us??? Is a resession!!!!!!
POBERTY IS SO BAD MAN I MEAN IT AFFECTS LIKE ZERO PEOPLE ACROSS THE WORLD
I issue a fatwa on sky!
The Sound System was the backup band for Elton John when he played at Tower theater
Personally people need to be happy for william and kate if they want elton to sing at there wedding then let it be no one should down the royals for happyness go elton sing your heart out for the british be happy people for them really dont you think they should be happy
CHEEF 5:15 SAYS SKY IS WORSE TROLL THAN CHEEF FACT
Corinthians 1:3 says, "SKY is a nut." You can look it up.
I think it is sad to see the royals trying to crash an Elton John appearance for their own frivolous event.
Sky, good luck burning in hell. You are perfect timber.
AND THEY BUILT THE HIGH PLACES NAMED TOPHETH IN THE VALLY OF THE SONS
OF HINNOM, "INORDER TO BURN THEIR CHILDREN IN THE "FIRE", A THING THAT I
DID NOT COMMAND(GOD SPEAKING) SOMETHING THAT HAS NEVER EVER
COME UP INTO MY "HEART" – JEREMIAN 7:31
"THE WOLFS WILL LIVE WITH THE LAMBS, AND WITH THE KID THE LEOPARD WILL SLEEP.
THE CALF AND YOUNG LION WILL BE THERE AND A MERE LITTLE BOY WILL BE
THE LEADER OVER THEM" ISAIAH 11:6-9 (NO INTERPRETATION NEEDED)
Sky – good luck burning in hell. You are perfect timber.
Also does the bible say that the children shall be milked and the goats be blessed or is that a Christian mans interpretation?
CABBAGE: MANY WERE SAYING "HE HAS A DEMON IN HIM AND HE IS MAD"
WHY LISTEN TO WHAT HE HAS TO SAY? BUT OTHER SAID
WHAT HE SPEAKS ARE NOT FROM A DEMONIZED MAN
YOU SEE A DEMON CAN'T OPEN THE EYES OF
BLIND PEOPLE CAN IT? JOHN 10:20,21
Enough religion, let's get back to the core issue. I hope Elton has enough class to play at the wedding with a mud free helmet! Go bible thumper don't let these sane people silence you!!
FACT: 1 CORINTHIANS 5;11-13 'BUT NOW I WRITE YOU TO QUIT MIXING IN COMPANY WITH
"ANYONE" CALLED A BROTHER THAT IS A FORNICATOR, ETC., NOT EVEN EATING
WITH SUCH A MAN...FOR I GOD JUDGE THOSE OUTSIDE(MEANING ANYONE WHO IS
NOT A CHRISTIAN) "YOU JUDGE THE ONE INSIDE" (MEANING ANYONE WHO CLAIMS
TO BE A BAPTIZED CHRISTIAN, AND HAS THE BACKING AND BLESSING OF THE CHURCH.
MATTHEW 4:4 (OUR LORD JESUS SAID) "IT IS WRITTEN, MAN JUST LIVE, NOT JUST ON BREAD
BUT ON EVERY UTTERANCE COMING FORTH THROUTH
THE LORDS MOUTH.( THE BIBLE)
2 PETER 2:20-21 (PETER SPEAKING) " NO PROPHECY OF SCRIPTURES (OR WHAT IS WRITTEN IN THE HOLY BIBLE) COMES FROM PRIVATE INTERPRETATION. PROPHECY IS NOT FROM MAN. BUT ALL MEN WHO SPOKE FROM GOD BORN ALONG BY HOLY SPIRT.
@ sky,
You are a religious lunatic.If you want to worship, go ahead, butt chill out dude.
Sky. thanks for quoting from scripture. more people should. lets not forget what the lord did to sodom and gamora.
that's if u believe in the fairy tales told in the book called the bible written by man....oh, let's not forget that Santa is real too....
I love elton john...i listen to him allllll the time like CRAZY.... Hehe....in fact I am listening now......i know all of his songs but I replay candle in the wind (marilyn monroe) like there is NO TOMORROW.....
To the previous remark. Are you saying because they lived together is college they HAD to be sleeping together? Did you sleep with all your roommates? Unless you were there you don't know! Being a Christian also means you do not judge! Your comment was judging from the beginning! Sit down and love not hate.
They have been sleeping together SINCE college. And have been living together and sharing the same bed since then. They live in the same apartment though I she has her own place. It is just a show, the royals have never been the honest types just go with the show they are putting on. This guy is going to take over the church of England? And his father. ugh.
FACT: EVERYONE WANTS ME TO GET WITH THE TIMES AND RIDE THE TRAIN.
WHERE? ON WHAT ROAD?
MATTHEW 7:13 JESUS SAID GO IN THROUGH THE NARROW GATE BECAUSE BROAD
AND WIDE IS THE ROAD TO DESTRUCTION AND SO MANY ARE GOING IN THROUGH IT.
BUT NARROW ROAD TO LIFE AND FEW ARE FINDING IT. I AM ENCOURAGING ALL TO
PLEASE GET ON THE NARROW ROAD...IT'S NARROW BECAUSE WHEN YOU FOLLOW
GOD WAY OF DOING THINGS, THERE IS NO ROOM FOR TEACHING OF MEN., MEN WHO
DELUTE THE BIBLE AND WATER IT DOWN TO FIT THEIR SELFISHNESS.
JOHN THE BAPTIST WAS BEHEADED WHEN HE CALL THE KING OUT FOR HIS ADULTERY.
NO ONE ELSE HAD THE FAITH TO DO IT...THEY ACCEPTED IT AS OK, LETS FOLLOW THE TIMES.
TRUE CHRISTIANS TAKE A STAND FOR THE TRUTH. CHRIST REALLY SPOKE THE TRUTH.
THE CHURCH HAVE BEEN SILENT.....MAYBE IF THEY SPEAK UP.....THINGS WOULD BE DIFFERENT.
AMEN, honey. ♥ Speak the truth in love. God EXISTS, He sees all, He remembers all. We will be hated and persecuted for Christ's namesake, as we see here and elsewhere in this corrupt world, but He has made a faithful promise to us and we know what they don't...the battle is already won. So let them froth at the mouth because you quoted Scripture...I pray a blessing for you because you did! AMEN AND AMEN!
Dear 'Sky' I was reading between your lines. Get with the times and ride the future train man! What gives you the right to insinuate that the Church has any obligation to determine for any of us,royal or otherwise,how we live our lives? Whatever is moral to you may be different than another christian person. Despite your narrow minded opinion of Lady Di and Sir Elton,THEY are(always) loved by many!including any God I personally do believe in and I trust that all forms of 'god' respect all humans that deserve it.The ONLY universal Christian belief is to Do unto others as you would have done unto you.Peace Love and Grooviness to anyone that can appreciate the goodness of everyone!
Elton honestly will sing at anybodys wedding! He only charges a small fee to play. He charges $1million to play for a public wedding!
FACT: THOSE IN THE ROYAL WEDDING ARE SLEEPING TOGETHER AS BE SPEAK.
THEY ARE CHRISTIANS, AND WILL GET MARRIED INTHE HOLY CHURCH
AND SO WHY NOT LET ELTON JOHN SING AT THE WEDDING.
THE CHURCH HAS NO MORAL AT ALL.......
I BLAME THEM FOR ALL THE FORNICATION THAT IS DONE
NOT ONCE HAS THE CHURCH ENCOURAGES THE ROYAL ONES
TO LIVE A CHRISTIAN LIFE...LOOK AT THE EXAMPLE OF THEIR
STEP-MOTHER....NOW THEY WANT US TO PLAY
HOLY MARRAGE THE GAME AGAIN...NO WAY
Surely you must be joking . . . or you are just plain nuts!
Elton John is a Legend of all time.... I love him and its Awesome that he will sing @ Royal Wedding....
I think that's it's a beautiful thing! But the most precious part Prince Williams holds his Mother very dear and close to his heart. Diana you'll never be
forgotten!
I Love Elton John!!
Don't hate that's awesome.Watever he sings would be great he is a legend.
My name is Earl. Elton loves beer ..... he loves to drink like a fish.....
Dats a true friend!!!
Elton John is one of the most beautiful song writers/performers ever. Just imagine having him perform at your wedding. Wow!
pretty sure he did not write most of his songs. Bernie Taupin wrote much of the songs. How much did they collaborate? who knows. I do assume that he wrote the music.
Great move. Diana would like that. I know she is proud of her boys but...did he sing for Rush ? Elton...you made a faux-pas honey.....what was that? short of cash?
I like his song
Does that mean he's going to record yet another version of "Candle in the Wind"? Please put that lame song to sleep!
Hahaha...thats what I listen to allllll the time ...everywhere....candle in the wind..marilyn monroe.....but good one...ppl told me the same thing hahah I cant help it....i have lots of marilyn monroe pics in my room and the song is amazing.....lol
THATS MUCH MORE ACCEPTABLE THAN WHEN HE SOLD OUT TO RUSH LIMPBALL
yeah, for sure.
ok....no christmas party for the queen's employees???? invite them to the wedding instead so at least they can have their cake and eat it too at a wedding party instead of a christmas party!
How about you look at Sir Elton John as a unifier and not a divider like yourself.
