For decades now, it has been tradition for Elton John to host a party for the Oscars, and the pandemic didn’t stop the 29th Annual Elton John AIDS Foundation Academy Awards Viewing Party from taking place last night. It was a virtual event this year, though, but it still managed to raise $3 million for the Elton John AIDS Foundation, as Page Six reports.
Dua Lipa was in attendance and she performed a handful of Future Nostalgia tracks: “Levitating,” “Pretty Please,” “Hallucinate,” and “Don’t Start Now.” Aside from those, she also linked up with John for a pair of duets, as the two sang “Bennie And The Jets” and “Love Again” together.
John said in a statement, “It was so much fun to perform with the gorgeous Dua Lipa and open up our Party to supporters all over the world. I’m so grateful to Neil [Patrick Harris] for hosting, everyone who attended, and all my friends who participated so that we could continue this legendary event to raise vital funds to end the AIDS epidemic.”
