David Walliams has revealed how Elton John offered to sing at his 50th birthday party.
The author and Britain's Got Talent judge was on Wednesday's Lorraine talking about how global superstar Elton made a 'surprise' performance at his party in September.
He revealed how he hadn't told anyone about the singer's planned performance and that Elton had dedicated a song to his mum, Kathleen.
The event saw stars such as Rob Brydon, fellow BGT judge Amanda Holden and Ant and Dec attended the London hotel party, reported the Mirror.
TV presenter Lorraine asked David about his birthday bash, she said: "Did you have Elton John singing to you?"
David joked: "Yeah I don't know if you've heard of him, he's an up and coming singer. He's just starting out so I thought I'd give him a break.
"No he just offered," David added: "He said is anyone performing at your birthday and I went no and he went 'Oh I'll do it, I'll do three songs' and then he did Your Song and dedicated it to my mum and put in her mum Kathleen into the song... which was incredible."
"I didn't tell anyone he was going to do it because I thought otherwise people will just be going 'when's Elton on?' and 'oh he only did three songs' so it was amazing because it was a total surprise.
"What an amazing gift for him to give me! He's a very lovely man."
Lorraine airs weekdays on ITV from 9am.
