As a long-time fan of Sir Elton John, witnessing the release of his reimagined “Step Into Christmas” video is like taking a trip down memory lane. The video, with its playful twist on the original, showcases Cara Delevingne’s uncanny ability to embody the spirit and style of the legendary musician. It’s fascinating to see the evolution of Elton’s iconic dance moves and facial expressions being mirrored so accurately by another artist.

In a surprising turn of events, Elton John has unveiled an unusual partnership with Cara Delevingne, where she metamorphosed into the musician himself for his newest music video.

In a fresh collaboration, the 32-year-old actress bears an uncanny resemblance to the iconic musician, as they both star in the recently released music video for Elton John’s triple platinum certified holiday hit “Step into Christmas.

This fresh video offers a glimpse into the backstage happenings that might have occurred during the historic 1973 filming, as Cara takes on the role of younger Elton John in this modern interpretation.

Pulling her hair back, the celebrity channeled her inner rock legend while donning the renowned sunglasses of the Rocketman songwriter.

As an ardent admirer, I can’t contain my excitement about the moment when Cara gracefully stepped into Elton John’s iconic heels in that captivating video. Over the years, we’ve grown closer than ever, and this collaboration was a dream come true for me, a lifetime ambition realized!

As an ardent admirer, let me share the tale of how a magical collaboration unfolded between none other than the legendary Elton, aged 77, and myself. You see, during the enchanting summer days at Glastonbury, we serendipitously crossed paths and shared our dreams of creating something extraordinary together, provided the perfect project presented itself.

He mentioned that she’s delightful company and we share a witty sense of humor that often turns self-deprecating.

When someone proposed the notion of us both performing a riff from the 1973 Step In to Christmas video, I instantly considered it an ideal chance.

He added: ‘Thank God Cara thought the same, because it came out great.’

Simultaneously, Cara enthusiastically shared: “Elton has always been a role model for me, and I can’t stress enough that his music has greatly impacted me. In fact, it’s more than just influential – it’s left a deep, lasting impression.

I didn’t realize I yearned for the chance to play against him in this pastime, but when he invited me, it felt like a long-hidden dream coming true.

She added: “To tell you the truth, it’s my dream to live like Elton John each day. I truly hope that someday, he might reciprocate by agreeing to portray me in my yet-to-be-written, unproduced, and unfunded biopic. Here’s hoping!

More than five decades following Elton’s iconic show, the vibrantly cheesy video production crew is seen rushing to prepare the stage for his appearance, aiming to infuse a festive Christmas atmosphere.

In spite of adorning the scene with colorful feather boas, floating balloons, and scattered confetti, pandemonium prevails as they struggle with an unruly turkey, are unable to secure a genuine reindeer, and have to handle an overzealous fan who invades the stage.

Cara brilliantly mirrors Elton’s choicest dance moves and iconic facial expressions from the original video. 

On more than one occasion, Elton John has made a well-known appearance in one of his music videos, such as when Justin Timberlake impersonated him in the 2001 hit “This Train Don’t Halt Here Anymore.

Under the guidance of director David LaChapelle, the music video featured the pop star adopting a younger likeness of Elton John, donning outfits characteristic of the icon’s style from the 1970s.

First appeared on November 23, 1973, the song Step Into Christmas reached the top spot on the US Billboard Christmas Singles chart and ranked at number 24 within its first seven weeks on the UK Singles Chart.

This well-loved holiday melody has been a recurring hit on the Billboard Holiday Airplay chart for an impressive 44 weeks so far. In the United Kingdom, it has consistently appeared on the charts every December starting from 2011.

Last year it was certified Triple Platinum by the BPI, 50 years after its release in 1973. 

Following the premiere of his latest documentary, Elton John: Never Too Late, which took place on Friday on Disney+, a revamped version of the video is now available.

Under the guidance of directors R.J. Cutler and David Furnish, this documentary narrates Elton John’s personal reflection on his life, focusing on the awe-inspiring early phases of his 50-year musical journey. The film offers an intensely emotional, intimate, and uplifting retrospective, tracing a complete circle in Elton’s extraordinary career.
