You know the moments that occur in your life where it just feels like it was all a dream? A very, elaborate dream where it all just felt like a fantasy that you were lucky enough to live, and never want to end? My life felt like a fairytale. Being raised by the one and only Elton John, was like I was a princess, and he was a king. This bigger than life man, was my family. The best kind of family. And being apart of this film, feels like another connection with him. I'm getting to know him more and more each day. Just watching Taron film, is like I've been transported to those very moments in my uncles life. It just baffles me how wickedly talented Taron really is. And my uncle? Well he adores him. He thinks he's just fantastic. And he is. And how I got lucky enough to be his assistant, I'll never truly know.

"Well look at you beautiful

"Well look at you beautiful. You look like a princess today." I practically beamed with happiness at Uncle David's voice ringing out from behind me, coming to check in with Uncle Elton and see how things were going. Apparently, Dex wants me as an extra for a couple more scenes in the film. He said I did bloody amazing, that it just came natural. He couldn't believe how relaxed I looked on camera. But to be honest, I just got lost in the moment with Taron. His performance so far has been just unbelievable.

"This is crazy Uncle David

"This is crazy Uncle David. I mean, my first time working on any film, and I'm not only an assistant. I'm in the bloody thing!" He grinned from my clear excitement. But I was so incredibly nervous to be honest. I don't want to let anyone down. I know I'm just an extra. It's not like I have a leading role. But it's still in the film. People will see me. And that thought alone, scared me to no end.

"You know, Dex couldn't stop singing your praises about yesterday. He absolutely loves you. And from what I was shown, you just got so into it. You completely forgot a camera was even rolling. You were just solely focused on Taron." He winked at me with a little kiss placed to the top of my head, leaving me blushing from his comment. Everyone was getting into their places for the party scene, smiling and having a good time. I was going to be in the backyard when Taron came out, following Jamie and his love interest for the scene. It was just.... magical. When the cameras rolled and everyone was in action, it was like I was living inside my uncles world. It was happening right in front of me. Feeling every emotion he felt. Seeing everything he did. Taron was just that good at it. And the outfit they had me in? I was definitely thinking of taking home with me and saying I don't know what happened to it. This stunning, sleeves flowing dress with flowers printed on it, perfect for summer time to be honest. And boots to match.
