Sir Elton John celebrates with Kevin Spacey just weeks after actor cleared of sex offenses

The Rocketman legend was previously called as a witness for the defense in Kevin Spacey's trial last month, and apparently they've been celebrating his victory.

Sir Elton John enjoyed a celebratory dinner with Kevin Spacey just a few weeks after the actor was cleared of all charges of sexual assault.

The House of Cards star was found not guilty of sexually assaulting four men after a trial that included witness testimony from Sir Elton himself, as well as his husband David Furnish.

Now, the two stars have been videoed seated next to each other belting out Elvis Presley’s Suspicious Minds at a restaurant.

A band called The Snugglers was performing the classic tune and took to social media to share the video on their Instagram page, @snugglers.music.

Kevin held up his phone to film the band while Sir Elton was enjoying the music.

“We had the chance to perform for those absolute legends: Sir @eltonjohn & @kevinspacey!” the band said in the caption. “In this clip Sir Elton is singing with us.”

In the video the four band members stood around the table and gave the famous guests a private performance.

The dinner took place at a restaurant called Petite Maison in Nice, France.

Following the trial, Kevin spoke outside Southwark Crown Court and told the press he was “humbled” by the jury’s decision.

“I'm imagining many of you can understand that there's a lot for me to process after what has just happened today,” he said.

“But I would like to say that I'm enormously grateful to the jury for having taken the time to examine all of the evidence and all of the facts carefully before they reached their decision and I am humbled by the outcome today.”

“I also want to thank the staff in this courthouse, the security and all those who took care of us every single day, my legal team… for being here every day. And that’s all I have to say for the moment. Thank you very much.”

Sir Elton told the jurors during the trial that Kevin had attended a white tie ball at his him - and traveled there by private jet.

He said Kevin attended the party, which took place at his house in Windsor in 2001, and stayed the night, but could not remember him visiting again after that.

Accusations against the House of Cards actor included one complainant alleging that he had grabbed him by the crotch so hard he cried out.

The Oscar-winner denied the allegations and was found not guilty of nine sexual offenses by a London jury last month.
