Sir Elton John, Sir Paul McCartney and the Beckhams are among the host of famous faces who have used social media to share a Christmas message. Veteran singer Sir Elton, 75, thanked his fans for making him feel “so special” over the last 12 months and called it “probably the most successful year” of his career.
Posting on Instagram on Christmas Day, he shared a video of him wearing glasses decorated with Santa hats and said: “It’s been an amazing year and I want to thank you all for being so supportive. Those who came to the shows, those who watched videos online, those who bought CDs, vinyls, streamed things.
“It’s been probably the most successful year of my career. We started off in January after lockdown for two years in New Orleans and we’ve done 92 Farewell Yellow Brick Road shows and they’ve all been so fantastic because you came to the shows and you dressed up, you made me have fun, you looked amazing, you sang to all the songs, you held signs up saying how many shows you’ve been to.
