London, Oct 1 (PTI) Singer LeAnn Rimes says music composer Elton John is a "very protective" friend.
The 34-year-old sinegr, who recorded the duet "Written in the Stars" with John, 69, for the stage musical "Aida", opened up about her bond with him, reported FemaleFirst.
"I was a kid when I sang with him so he's very protective and very sweet. We've been friends since I was 15. He called me to do a record together.
"And when Elton calls, you say yes. He's such a good dude, I love him to death. He's so personable and has always been so welcoming," she said.
LeAnn praised John's honesty and says he has been a great help in her musical career.
"All stars build up a wall - you don't know who to trust and you find yourself separating from everyone sometimes. So he's always been very transparent," she said.
