Elton John hosting the 20th Annual Oscars Viewing Party

And speaking of the Oscars…

Elton John wears Rialto by l.a.Eyeworks in Red Velvet with Fuchsia to host his 20th Annual Oscars Viewing Party last night in Los Angeles.

The event raised $5.25 million for the Elton John AIDS Foundation!

Elton was way more colorful than these handsome gentlemen I posted about yesterday.
