Elton John Criticizes Elon Musk During Legacy Award Ceremony

The pop icon made a controversial remark about the Tesla CEO while accepting an award for his contributions to LGBTQ+ rights.

Elton John received the Legacy Award from Attitude magazine, becoming only the second recipient after Prince Harry accepted it for Princess Diana in 2017.
During his acceptance speech, John made a pointed joke about Elon Musk, referencing the shape of the award and using a derogatory term.
John emphasized his pride in being a gay man and his commitment to fighting for LGBTQ+ rights worldwide.
His comments follow his decision to leave Twitter, now rebranded as X, due to concerns about misinformation under Musk's leadership.
Elon Musk has not publicly responded to John's latest comments, although he previously expressed regret over John's departure from the platform.
