Elton John gets his own ice cream
After winning multiple Grammys, an Academy Award, a Tony Award and getting a knighthood Elton John has been given the ultimate reward - his own ice cream.
Ice cream maker Ben & Jerry's is producing a special flavor for Elton to celebrate his first show in their home state of Vermont.
Called 'Goodbye Yellow Brick Road' it is chocolate, peanut butter and cookie dough flavored and will be available for only one week to coincide with the July concert.
All profits will go to the Elton John Aids Foundation, which he set up in 1992.
"There was only one way we could honor Sir Elton, and this monumental occasion, in true Ben & Jerry's fashion," said Jerry Greenfield, Ben & Jerry's Co-Founder.
"I can't think of a more fun way to celebrate playing my 50th state, Vermont, than having Ben & Jerry's create a special ice cream "Goodbye Yellow Brickle Road" with all my favorite flavors and ingredients," said Elton John.
"I'm especially pleased that they will be donating the proceeds to the Elton John AIDS Foundation."
