Elton John performed Wednesday as fundraiser for democratic candidate Hillary Clinton.

Everyone wants to know which candidate the rock stars support: Obama or Clinton. It is usually taken for granted that these artists are Democrats, unless they fall into the realm of pop country music.
br>Elton John (or, I should say, Sir Elton John) is a Hillary fan it seems. According to eFlux Media, the musician held a fundraiser on Wednesday night that earned about $2.5 million for the fiery female candidate.
br>The fundraiser was a concert held at Radio City Music Hall in New York City. 5,000 tickets sold out quickly, reports the Associated Press, and their prices ranged from $125 to $2,300. Hillary, along with husband Bill and daughter Chelsea, attended and spoke at the concert.
br>This fundraiser marks 61-year-old Elton John's first public solo concert in New York since 2000, when he performed at Madison Square Garden.
