ELTON JOHN is to perform with the Backstreet Boys at Party In The Park at London's Hyde Park in July.
Sir Elton, who sang with the boy R&B band at this year's Grammy Award ceremony, will join them for a duet at the sell-out show in aid of the Prince's Trust on Sunday July 9. There is also the possibility that the track may be recorded for a single release later.
According to the Dotmusic website Elton said: "I'm absolutely thrilled to be performing at this year's Party In The Park. It's a fantastic event and I'm really looking forward to going on stage in front of 100,000 people with the Backstreet Boys."
Side note: The 3rd annual Party in the Park 2000 festival set a world record on Thursday (5/25) by selling out all of its 100,000 tickets in less than seven hours, a new single-day concert sales record, according to the event's publicist.
