Sir Elton John is making the final preparations for a sold-out show tonight (March 25) at Madison Square Garden. This isn’t your everyday concert, though, as the pop legend will be celebrating his 60th birthday with his record-setting 60th MSG performance.

It also reveals that Eminem was criticized for his blond looks when he appeared for an audition in Dre’s office.
