Taron Egerton talks about meeting Britney in London

[Watch Me Work It]

Taron Egerton knows about fame — especially after the attention he received for his award-winning work as Elton John in 2019’s “Rocketman.” But Egerton never felt as popular as he did on July 23 when Britney Spears posted videos on her Instagram of them together in London.

“I felt very, very, very famous for a second,” Egerton tells me on this week’s “Just for Variety” podcast, crediting her “passionate fans” for all the love and attention.

The video — which Spears captioned, “Coolest guy ever!!! Such a freaking fan!” — was taken at a mutual friend’s dinner party. “She was very, very, very lovely,” the actor reports, explaining he’s been a fan of the pop star since her early days. “I was exactly the right age to have been swept up in all that mania,” he says, adding, “She’s a force.”

right! I edited the topic to add that just now

[Headed Peckerhead]

It makes me sad how people have called her a LIAR, about London, her pregnancy, and other issues. But when someone else confirms, they do believe her! 

It saddens me to witness this.

what if the mutual friend was Elton John?

Love this! Mutual friend, Elton John?

So Britney was indeed in London. Perhaps she met with Elton.
