Elton And Ai Weiwei Create AIDS Campaign
Sir Elton John and the Chinese artist Ai Weiwei will today join forces to support a Valentine’s Day campaign to raise awareness of Aids. Sir Elton has persuaded stars including Jessie J, Jamie Oliver and Elizabeth Hurley to take part by pricking their finger to draw a spot of blood and then tweet an image of it accompanied by the words, “Love Is In My Blood.” Sir Elton infuriated the Chinese authorities when he dedicated a performance in Beijing last November to the outspoken Weiwei.
