Show Notes
Elton John has spent decades advocating for LGBTQ+ equality. Now fellow legends - Jonathan Bailey, Laverne Cox, Melissa Etheridge, Billie Jean King, Orville Peck, and Chappell Roan – are honored in the inaugural Elton John Impact Awards.
Co-hosts Elvis Duran and Billy Porter lead intimate, heartfelt, and candid conversations, where each honoree shares personal stories of their journey to find their voice and advocate for others. In this first-of-its-kind audio special, these cultural icons explain how they’ve broken barriers to create a more welcoming and joyful world for all, paving the way for generations to come.
In partnership with the Elton John AIDS Foundation and Brandi Carlile’s Looking Out Foundation, The Elton John Impact Awards also provides funding and visibility to LGBTQ+ organizations working in our community every day, including Centerlink, GLAAD, the National Black Justice Collective, Outright International, SAGE, and The Trevor Project.
This is an awards special unlike any other that will inspire you to turn hope into action. Join us and the Rocket Man himself for the Elton John Impact Awards 2026!
