Elton John's Hillary Concert

"I've always been a Hillary supporter" -- so said Elton John at the beginning of his Hillary Concert last night at New York's Radio City Music Hall. "There is no one more qualified to lead America."

The English singer, composer and pianist added: "I'm amazed by the misogynistic attitudes of some of the people in this country. And I say to hell with them .... I love you Hillary, I'll be there for you."

With Bill and Chelsea also onstage, Hillary announced, "What I want you to know is I'm still standing, and I believe this country is worth fighting for," the New York senator said, playing off the title of one of John's hits. "So we're taking our campaign to Pennsylvania and all the states that haven't voted." Pennsylvania votes April 22."

The concert raised $2.5 million, with the least expensive seats ($125 and $250) selling out fast. The rest were filled by fans and Hillary supporters paying as much as $2,300, the contribution limit for an individual.
