Elton John<\/strong> has found yet another way to raise money for his AIDS Foundation: He’s selling stuff on eBay.<\/p>\n

Specifically, Elton is selling pieces from his famous wardrobe<\/strong><\/a> as part of a 10-day shopping event called Rocket Man Resale<\/strong><\/a>. It features hundreds of items from his recently sold Atlanta apartment, including shirts, hats, pants and shoes by Gucci, Versace, and Prada, plus more affordable lots, like concert t-shirts and baseball caps. The auction is live now, and 100% of the proceeds go to the Elton John AIDS Foundation.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cGiving new life to the cherished items from my wardrobe has always been special to me. For decades
I\u2019ve donated my closet\u2019s treasures to support the Elton John AIDS Foundation,\u201d Elton says in a statement. “This Pride Month, I’m excited to share my Atlanta treasure trove on eBay, hoping these items will inspire you to express your unique spirit and bring you as much joy as they’ve brought me.”<\/p>\n

“Whether you’re after high-end luxury or something more laid-back, there’s a perfect find for everyone,” he adds. “Even better, every dollar\u00a0goes to supporting the Elton John AIDS Foundation\u2019s work to end LGBTQ+ stigma.\u201d<\/p>\n

At 1:10 p.m. ET on the eBay app, Elton’s pal Stephen Sanchez<\/strong> and entrepreneur Emma Rogue<\/strong> will host a livestream shopping event featuring Elton and his husband David Furnish<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The shopping event will also feature items from Donatella Versace<\/strong>, Andy Cohen<\/strong>, Robin Roberts<\/strong>, Brandi Carlile<\/strong> and more. If you’re in New York City, there’s a pop-up featuring some of the items at 51 8th Avenue from 2 to 6 p.m. ET on Thursday.<\/p>\n
