Elton John Is Getting His Own Barbie Doll 

ELTON JOHN now has his own Barbie doll, which "celebrates his unique look."

Mattel says, quote, "The Elton John Barbie doll shines bright in a glittery top and flared denim embellished with Elton's sparkling initials. 

"Her 'Elton'-embossed bomber jacket features star-printed sleeves and a rainbow-striped hem. Nods to the artist's iconic style include rainbow-striped platform boots, a purple bowler hat and sparkly, pink-tinted sunglasses."

So, it's still Barbie . . . just glammed up like she's going as Elton for Halloween.

Elton posted photos of his Barbie, and called it an "honor." Mattel is selling the Elton-inspired Barbie for $50.00.

The three-day festival wound up bringing in $1.8 million to help venues, with money coming from donations through YouTube Giving’s Donate button, the Save Our Stages website, text to donate and #SOSFEST merch. 

And the donations don’t need to end. Fans can still support the cause, and watch #SOSFest performances on YouTube, where they’ll find the donate button.
