The changing face of. Elton John
Description
The Changing Face of ... is a glittering new celebrity biography series with a twist: telling the incredible stories of A-listers whose careers have endured across the decades. Hugely talented within their fields, they've also been inventive in using their image to keep themselves in the spotlight. Through the prism of their ever-changing style, we reveal each star's amazing life story - the highs, the lows, the drugs, the sex and the rock and roll. The Changing Face of ... has secured interviews with dozens of key players in the global image-making machine - in London, New York, Los Angeles and Las Vegas. For example, top photographer Terry O'Neill, Emmy-award winning designer Bob Mackie, veteran TV journalist Nina Myskow and respected fashion historian Pamela Church-Gibson. Alongside their contributions are stunning stills and moving archive from Getty Images and ITN, revealing the iconic looks of our celebrities from childhood to present day. These days Sir Elton is rock royalty. He's come a long way from his dorky school days when he went by the name Reginald Dwight. From mild-mannered piano player to dazzling sequin-clad showman, Elton's changed not just the way he looks, but his way of life too. He's been straight, bi-sexual, and gay, he's been a shopaholic, workaholic, and cocaine addict and then, in 2010, a father. From massive specs and spandex, to Versace suits and wigs: Elton is an international institution.
