Elton John Breaks Down 14 Looks From 1968 to Now | Life in Looks | Vogue

I love how Elton said "Cher being Cher" to that photo of them just like Cher said "Elton being Elton" to that same photo
I would love Diana Ross to comment on this photo too!
I love that
Link?
@@everythingyoulike244 you're a bad person for making me think this was a link to Cher talking about Elton... 😂
@@kundan906 it's Cher's Vogue Life in Looks video
I love how graceful yet funky he is. He speaks so highly of other people. Such a big heart
czcams.com/video/6DaZb9fAebM/video.html
except tina turner lol
@@arnoldh1988 czcams.com/video/M25K4tGgtKs/video.html
He is so Elton, yet so down to earth and real at the same time.
It's taken a lot of therapy I'm sure and losing Johnny and Diana. Watch the documentary that his husband did. I think it's called Tiaras and Tantrums. It doesn't always show him in the best light. He, like all of us, is forever evolving and growing. He is such a fascinating person though.
Elton John has had a career that's stood the test of time. So glad he's still standing and going strong.
I see what you did there 👍

- After all this time

@@monstrellsf-w8277 Always
Gaga is the godmother to their sons?? That's iconic. I loved this video so much and the way he remembers Princess Di and Gianni Versace so fondly.
I remember the photos of Diana crying on his shoulder at Versace's funeral, and then not even 2 months later he had to hold it together to play candle in the wind for her funeral
This only proves what we already knew. They’re all pedos.
And Elton himself is a godfather to David Beckham's kids
Gaga will be a friend to his boys long after Elton is gone
She used to give them baths backstage at his Vegas residency
One of the biggest boldest outfits “ah yes something you’d go to the grocery store in”. What an icon
he is too genius
like he ever went to the grocery store. LOL
Iconic
*narcissist, opps you misspelled it.
Oh. When he paused to remember his friends Diana and Gianni. 💔 One photo encompassing so much love and joy but also loss. It really shows how someone special can touch another's life even years and years after their deaths.
czcams.com/video/hwGlZJjDRKg/video.html
It really was so special and so touching
@@eveningstar8581
Yes it's amazing
when he said Gianni was his best friend, and paused after, I felt that- I lost my very best friend about 20 years ago and I still think of her every day and miss her. But Sir Elton's song "I'm Still Standing" is one of my touchstones, I feel strong when I hear it.
@@ScientificallyStupid 💔💕
He's right, we need a volume 2! 80s looks need to have their due as well. 💖
Totally agree!
czcams.com/video/6DaZb9fAebM/video.html
I have a feeling Elton’s team intentionally requested not to put the 80s stuffs.
@@riana3345 It was a dark time for him
He could do a coffee table book with proceeds going to his AIDS foundation. I'd buy it!
I love that he immediately spoke about the other people in the photos before himself, and has a lot of nice things to say about those he's worked with. A true legend and icon.
Character trait requisition. Copying the behaviours of someone whim has empathy to con you into believing a kind a warm person.
Same as Meghan Markle.
@@HGCUPCAKES you sound genuinely mental
I recently started listening to Elton's show where he interviews other singers, almost every guest shares how Elton helped their career in a momentous way. He seems to be such a lovely giving human. I adore the story of why he dressed the way he did; makes so much sense.
Hi! Where did you listen to this podcast?
czcams.com/video/6DaZb9fAebM/video.html
Sorry what show are you referring to ? I would love to see it sounds amazing
@@kimberleyhanlon1492 czcams.com/video/hwGlZJjDRKg/video.html
@@kimberleyhanlon1492 It is audio only as far as I know; I listen on Apple Music.
Elton John is both a music icon and a fashion icon.
I love everything about Sir Elton John. The man is a legend an icon, and an inspiration. Elton's songs can fit every aspect of your life. Elton John is the soundtrack of my life.
czcams.com/video/6DaZb9fAebM/video.html
@@ffgya6014 czcams.com/video/6DaZb9fAebM/video.html
What a sad and horribly dressed life...
@@jaxo5679 It does not appear to me that he is sad.. he's laughing all the way to the bank.
He is so great
I really really love people like Elton john, and lady gaga and cher and madonna...people who do things for the art of it, for the fun it. The kind who inspires you to a level of creativity and uniqueness that you thought your mind could never fathom.
czcams.com/video/hwGlZJjDRKg/video.html
Don't include Madona in that list. She has lately become very disrespectful to people. Its honestly sad considering what an icon she was.
@@SyedSaifAbbasNaqviyea replace Madonna with Paul McCartney and Kylie
Cher, him and Diana Ross need to recreate that pic!
yeah
The way he mentioned "Mick Jagger, Rod Stewart, and David Bowie", for me it's proved that Elton respects fellow musicians. I wish you stay healthy and happy, Sir!
@Elton John I am flattered to read your sincere comments. thank you, sir.
And Marc Bolan.
He's still a little pissed at rod Stewart for poking fun at his final farewell tour .Rod said " the whole thing stinks of selling alot of tickets doesn't it dear "
I realized I could listen to him for hours and not get bored
czcams.com/video/hwGlZJjDRKg/video.html
This is the opposite of “never meet your heroes.” He is more lovely, humble, and witty than I could have hoped! Love you Elton
Elton needs a whole library for his looks, great outfits. Elton is always so interesting could listen to him for hours
As a kid in the 70s, The Muppets introduced me to Elton John (among other performers). Seeing him almost cry while remembering lost loved ones almost got me as well.
We need a part 2 with Elton! He speaks so beautifully, every story is such an articulate memory, you can see every word is so genuine!
How are you gonna skip over the famous Dodgers outfit? I was hoping to hear the backstory for that one.
Absolutely love Elton. He's more than a legend and an icon, he's an Institution. His talent, style, charity and attitude are completely unmatched and can never be duplicated. He is and has always been unapologetically himself, and is one of a kind.
Also disappointed it wasn't included
His biography is AMAZING and they touch on the dodger outfit - if you liked this video I highly recommend it!
@@kenzieee0079 it's on my TBR list! I can't wait to get into it.
czcams.com/video/hwGlZJjDRKg/video.html
I love the dodgers outfit and Taron Egerton wearing it to play Elton in Rocketman was just astounding
My grandfather professionally made (designed/decorated) Elton John's ( 31st?) birthday cake. It was a life size cake of Elton John....it took like 4 or 6 giant sheets of cake to make it.....
Part of me wonders if Elton John remembers this at all. My aunt certainly does...
unfortunately,
My grandfather was very humble though; and didn't like anyone in our family taking pictures of his cakes or himself with them so to my knowledge we don't have those just a few of the bday cakes he made in the family , he also professionally decorated the cake for the opening of Disneyland here in California...
I miss my grandpa so much. He was basically my father growing up and he did many amazing things. He was a professional cartoonist, cake decorator, a medic and chef in WWII, and workeqd in bakery craft sales after retiring in his 70s. R.i.p. Opa
Your grandfather sounded like a wonderful character,my good person of the internet.my condolences,dear.
Thank you for sharing 🍰
I love that he mentioned the duck costume because I was hoping to see it and was surprised they missed the whole 80s era. Eitherway an amazing interview and I’m going to see him in June 4 days after parklife, should be amazing!!!
czcams.com/video/hwGlZJjDRKg/video.html
I grew up listening to Elton John. I always asked for his cassette tapes for my birthday. Yes, it was that long ago, but Sir Elton looks better than ever. His music is timeless 🖤
czcams.com/video/hwGlZJjDRKg/video.html
czcams.com/video/hwGlZJjDRKg/video.html
Same! I asked for every new album for Christmas, mom always came through! I was always the most excited when I knew the flat square package was the lastest Elton John album! I couldn't tear the wrapping off fast enough! Such great memories!
@@jayceew.rabbit9358
👍❤️❤️❤️❤️
What an incredible man. On every level. My cousin, who I was very close to, died of AIDS at a tragically young age (32). Thank you, Sir Elton, for your wonderful contributions to fighting this horrible disease. You are such a class act!
I suppose that they had to struggle a lot to include only 14 outfits! 🎹🕶🌟
czcams.com/video/hwGlZJjDRKg/video.html
I've never heard him speak in an interview before. He's always just been Elton John, the way you talk about the North Star or whatever. He's a lovely, down to earth man. And so funny!
@Elton John I've been a fan since I can remember. I love your music. I bought many of your records and combed magazines to find pictures that I made into huge collages. There was a connection there since the beginning, that has lasted all these years. Almost 50! You sing for all of us who don't sing! And I will finally get to see you live in Greensboro, NC in April. I can't wait!
read his autobiography, you will fall in love with him.
@@ScientificallyStupid I will!
@@harvestmoon_autumnsky I really hope you enjoy it! He writes so honestly about his experiences, even when it doesn't make him look so good, he's so honest that you just love him even more.
Do yourself a huge favor and go look up "Elton John Interviews" and "Elton John Russell Harty" and "Elton John Interviews 1970s" and "Elton John Tom Snyder"and just start watching.
His speaking voice is like butter or silky ganache.
Elton John is the reason I started to love music as young as I did. His music and stage presence had me hooked at 8 years old and I’ve never looked back. For so many reasons I could take forever to explain, this man is a legend.
czcams.com/video/hwGlZJjDRKg/video.html
Vogue should publish these books! I'd buy the whole set!
I love that no matter how long he has lived and worked in America, British sarcastic humour has never left him haha
His genuine love for not only the looks but his focus on the moment was heart-warming.
Elton is the essence of flamboyance. People went to his concerts in the '70s just to see the costumes. So much fun!
6:02 The fact Princess Diana just casually went out one night with Elton John makes me miss her all the more without even having been alive at the same time. She sounds like such a legend.
I have watched almost every interview w Elton on CZcams and what strikes me is how down to Earth he really is. He certainly can be a diva at times but even in his early 20s he always is very honest and direct and never condescending. He is a class act and a living legend.
I love how Sir Elton John speaks about his designers and mentions how the various outfits have made his career fun. He had something positive to say about everyone, I would love to see another installment! ☺️
This vid made my day💕💕💕
Couldn’t help but sob remembering Gianni and the exceptional friendship he had with Elton. Miss Gianni so very much, just as Elton does. In my opinion the looks Gianni created for his mate were among his very finest.

Thas wassup !!!
czcams.com/video/hwGlZJjDRKg/video.html
These titles are ridiculous. Be a man or woman....this is the best
@@lanalook9200 stop restraining humans to two gender roles that are made up, please get yourself educated.
@@lanalook9200and what if I am not?
I would love Elton at the MET Gala, I think he would kill it
The way he says “ahhhh” when he sees every outfit is so cute
I took my dad and stepmom to see him and they were sobbing the whole time! Thank you Elton for being one of the greatest artists of all time!
I love Elton john's music, he's literally a legend and one of my biggest inspirations when I think about how beautifully a piano or a song can sound. So glad to realize he's also down to earth and a great person all around, with a fantastic creative sense.
Elton John is a legend.
Exactly what I was gonna say!
Elton seems so sincere and honest. I wish he would do more stuff like this. Closet tour? Studio tour? Just saying…..
🥺🥺💖 bless him when he talks about his friends I wanna give him a hug
Thanks Elton, lovely to have this personal account and hear your story, not someone else's interpretation of it. Your film was very inspirational. You have a big heart and have reached so many people. It's amazing.
I loved watching this and hearing Elton’s stories. What a beautiful kind hearted man. I could listen to him all day!
He said "madcap" and kept a straight face. He's charming. Love Elton.
@Elton John Wow, Elton, how can I advise you? You've done a magnificent job of a long, successful career. Nobody has done better. I'm 65, live in the American Midwest, and I've been a fan since "Your Song." I know you loved Freddie, so I love you even more for that. I don't know how you got through "Candle In the Wind" at Diana's funeral. Well, exceptional professionalism is the only explanation. You have long relationships with your band mates, with Bernie Taupin, and others. It makes me think even more highly of you. I'm very pleased for your marriage and your children, and very happy for you. Thank you for responding. Much admiration, my love, Lori
I clicked on this so fast. I have been waiting. I hope there are more of these to come since I love the backstories for the costume. What a generous, talented and funny man.

he needs a part two. he's absolutely incredible
Love, love, love, the Elton John life in looks, the color, vitality, humor,and beauty. A consumate artist, his intelligence, style, creativity and wit shine through.
Never seen Elton in this light! So sweet and iconic!!
Love Elton John, humor is spot on and he seems so genuine.
I always love running across pictures of Elton John in his different outfits over the year. They're all so much fun to look at.
I've been his #1 fan for the last 59 years❤ This makes my heart so happy🥰
czcams.com/video/hwGlZJjDRKg/video.html
I loved seeing and hearing you on stage. Thank you for continuing on your Goodbye Yellow Brick Road tour. You are a living legend and a genuinely fantastic person.
this video made me so so happy to watch i can’t explain it- yes PLEASE do a part 2!
you can tell he is just so kind hearted and authentically himself, I love him so much 😭💖
czcams.com/video/hwGlZJjDRKg/video.html
I love you Elton, even now, me in my 60s, you in your 70s. As I young teen I loved your melancholy songs. I still love them, but it's so nice to get a glimpse of the thinking person behind the artist.
He's so charming- i loved hearing him talking about his friendships and admirations towards the people he works with
I love how he credits everyone involved. Such a wonderful human being
He speaks so highly and kindly of younger artists I love that about him 🙏🏽❤️
I wish Bowie was still among us to make his ' Life in looks 'too! he used to have the best outfits throughout his whole career
And Freddie as well.
A true showman and superstar. Thanks for the chat, Sir Elton! Hope you will consider coming back to perform in Vancouver, Canada! 🇨🇦
Words can’t describe how much I love this man. He’s so wonderful in every way, even though he has been through so much
he is so naturally charming and funny. super confident and down to earth as well
I absolutely love him. He is just so full of life and has the best personality 💖 . It's really nice to see him not only look at his most iconic looks but to watch him relive the memories and the people he met along the way you can honestly tell he has a genuine loving heart and soul this is one of my favorites so far ❤️
This was fantastic! Elton is a natural. He really needs to be continuing in showbiz in some way because he’s so easy to listen to, so fun to listen to. I’ve been an Elton John fan my whole life now I’m an old man, not too far behind Elton lol and I think he has blossomed into such an incredible person in his old age. I really enjoy listening to him. Stay healthy, Elton!
So grateful to see this legend talking to us🙏
Love his lovely pink jacket too💕
He's so excepcional, how he talks and describes people he loves
I absolutely adore this man. A real treasure, only gets better with time. It made me sad to see how sad he got looking at the pics of his friends that were taken too soon.
OMG I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS FOR SOOO LONG
I love him .Elton John and his music has always had a special place in my life and heart. Each song brings back a certain memory through my life. So glad I got to be a part of his Farewell Tour. I wish I could meet him one day in person, I just want to give him a big hug. He is so amazing.
It is so nice to get to know a little something about Elton John!😊
“Ahh this is tasteful” Elton is great! 🤩
This was absolutely delightful to watch!
I love hearing your input into the ‘looks’ over the years. ❤❤
Seriously love this man so much 💖 Totally get what he means about the costume/outfit helping you get into character fully and perform. That's the final ingredient! Being a huge theater person the costumes are just the icing on the cake for me and get me so excited to play my role. And Halloween is my Christmas--dressed as Elton in his white suit with the feathers a few years ago.
Also love how he can speak so candidly about loving clothes, shoes and accessories without sounding materialistic or vain. If you read his biography he speaks about how much he loves buying gifts for others. 💞
I absolutely love Elton. Such an inspirational man.
I love how Elton and his music has sort of matured and evolved. He and his music are timeless.
That was so fun! And I can’t believe his wit and humour a true treasure!
I trulyyyyyy enjoyed this. Great job Vogue, I wanted more! I really was brought through the ages which is what I think this segment should be about.
This made me love him so much more than I did... and I didn't know that was even possible
love his music and i adore the fact that he is so down to earth interesting talented wise fun
Elton is just AMAZING!!! I hope there's indeed MORE to come!!! Because we need more of this incredible artist's ART 💜
Thanks for letting us in Elton !
Your an inspiration ahead of your time one of a kind we love you !
I love Elton! So self deprecating, funny, eloquent and down to Earth while still owning just how good he is. And the music! 💖😂👌
Bob Mackie all day. But I'm obsessed with Sir Elton John's pearl earring.
Thank you thank you ELTON. For sharing .You have touched the hearts of the world in somany ways. Your inspiration is neverending. You are my hero.. and always will be.. I cant thank you enough.
Thank you for the music, for your engagement with your aid foundation and all you have done to support others.
Another mature/old individual😎
What an icon - I'm so glad I got to live through the height of his music career :)
That was a lot of fun to go through and hear his take on various costumes; glad he added the Donald Duck costume at the end into this list because it’s easily my favorite of all of them. The Muppet Show bird one is pretty great also.
I'm only 4 minutes into this video and I am already IN love with everything he says and do. I've recently re-discovered 60-70's music. A splash of 80's and he is one musician who music I EXTREMELY understand and love now that I am older/ an adult. There is a reason why Artists like him, Cher, and Diana Ross has stood the test of times.Legends.
I love Elton so fricking much. I saw him in concert on January 22 this year for his Farewell Tour and I can honestly say this was one of the best experiences in my life. He is such a lovely person with an amazing personality and I will miss seeing him on stage.
Elton is such a huge legend and he still seems so down to earth and kind
He has definitely had the most eye-catching looks throughout his career. I like people like Elton John because they are artists with their whole hearts.
Love this! I’m surprised they haven’t done this video sooner
How can you not love this man. Such joy in my heart thanks to this little guy right here. Ah.
I think Sir Elton John looks incredible in any outfits He wear. And He owns the stage with great voice and outstanding piano performance.He rocks🌠
Vogue please do a 24 hour video w Josephine Langford or her skin care routine I’M BEGGING YOU, PLEASE!!!!!
What a legend! Just love people like Sir Elton because he represents such individuality and an eccentric personality that makes all feel accepted. Talk about blazing your own path.
Elton I think you have had a lot of fun looking back at your life in photos, thank you for your music and being apart of my life, your music has played a valuable part my life and I thank you, you are inspiring and a wonderful human being, thanks.
