Elton Wants JT

Well, Elton John sure has taste.

The legendary has gone on the record to say that he wouldn’t mind it one bit if Justin Timberlake played him in an upcoming “surreal look at my life in the manner of a Moulin Rouge!” – and I gotta say I’d be an inspired choice.

For one, Timberlake already has played John on a video, the one for “This Train Don’t Stop There Anymore.” Plus, the guy can act, and playing a pop icon should prove a cinch.

Alas, this is whole thinking is thinking out loud for John. The only thing that sounds like it’s locked on the project is the script.
