Elton John is the Icon of the Year

Elton John has been named "Icon of the Year" by Time Magazine. In an interview on the occasion of the award, the 77-year-old looks back on his career and how he wants to be remembered:

Because we tried to change the world a little, because we were kind, because we tried to help people. And, apart from that – the music, of course, he says.

Time also names "Person of the Year" every year, an award that, among others, Swedish Greta Thunberg has received. This year, it is the USA's future president Donald Trump who has been named.
