Elton John, Bon Jovi, pop icons Christina Aguilera, Nelly Furtado, and Black Eyed Peas all attended the all-star Fashion Rocks concert at Radio City Music Hall in New York City which aired Friday night.

It’s the third annual concert celebrating the relationship between fashion and music, and before the show Elton said the performances were going to be electrifying.

“God, well there are some great performances. I’ve been rehearsing all afternoon from 12 O’clock and the Scissor Sisters are fantastic, Rhianna fantastic, everybody I’ve seen so far is pretty damn good. It’s going to be a really high paced, really exciting show.”

Bon Jovi guitarist Richie Sambora was also there with gal-pal Denise Richards.<

“Yeah, performing is fine. It’s what I do for a living. The rest of it’s hard.”

Fashion Rocks also featured Scissor Sisters, Kanye West, The Pussycat Dolls, Rihanna, and Jay-Z among other celebrities. Past years have featured Rod Stewart, Hoobastank, David Bowie, Arcade Fire and other heavyweights of the rock and pop world.

“Well you gotta look cool if you’re a rock star all the time. I probably was the epitome of uncool back in 1987, but now I’m with her (Richards), but now I’m cool because I’m with her. So, it’s all good.”
