Sir John takes on TV

Elton John is sticking his toe into primetime waters, developing a series about a topic he knows well - a golden years rock god (apparently not him specifically, but more a montage of his pals, the Micks and Bowies of the world), which focuses on an entourage's experiences catering to the whims of a celeb. Writing talent behind Sex & the City is working on the Spinal Tap-esque project, said to be for ABC. Whether it survives development and pilot hell or not, Elton is releasing a song written for the project, Him & Us, on his next album.
