I've had an amazing professional life, personal life, but at 64 to have a son who gives us that much love and enjoyment is, wow!

I've dodged so many bullets. Not just because of unsafe sex, but because of the amount of drugs I did, the amount of alcohol, the amount of work I was doing. I started the Elton John AIDS Foundation because I got so lucky.

It's much too late to save myself from falling.

I am in deep shock. I have lost a beloved friend [George Michael] - the kindest, most generous soul and a brilliant artist. My heart goes out to his family and all of his fans.

You can call me a fat, balding, talentless old queen who can't sing, but you can't tell lies about me.

It's very important to have two tiaras when you're on the road. You never know when you'll be invited to something really formal.

I've only been interested in the artistic side of life.
