Elton John is the primary reason for me not doing drugs and alcohol. I know what he went through the 16 years he was on them and what his life is like now after being sober for 14 years. When he got into rehab in the early 90's he was an aloholic, a drug addict, and was bulimic (all at the same time)! His music and life have improved so much since he got clean. His music has also helped me through some of the tougher times of my life.
After he got clean:
He found a parter that he's been together with for 11 years now.
He founded the Elton John AIDS Foundation (EJAF) that raises money to raise AIDS awareness, help AIDS victims, and find a cure for the disease.
He wrote the music to The Lion King and Aida (both of which are highly acclaimed shows).
RDA is just awesome! He's inspired me to "Macgyver" all sorts of stuff. I love watching him in SG1 and MacGyver. He's a great actor who cares a lot about the world (he is a member of the board of trustees for challengers boys and girls club).
Elton John, Richard Dean Andserson, Jack O'Neill, and MacGyver rock this world.
