Anastacia has revealed that she thinks of Sir Elton John as her “fairy godfather”.

She spoke about her plans to catch up with Elton while she is over in the UK promoting new album Resurrection.

The I’m Still Standing singer has been a vocal supporter of Anastacia’s career from the beginning, and duetted with her on Saturday Night’s Alright (For Fighting) at Madison Square Garden in 2000.

When Attitude asked her if he is still a supporter of hers today, she said: “He still is. He’s my fairy godfather; literally that’s what I call him.

“He keeps pumping out lovely children that I envy and the Christmas cards keep getting cuter and cuter. I’m excited to see them actually.

Anastacia – who beat breast cancer last year after having a double mastectomy – said that she is looking forward to sharing her “new boobs” with him.

“Hopefully while I’m in town there’ll be a moment I can share my new boobs with him,” she said. “I have to show him, because he gets to see. Not that he’s really caring, but I flashed him my other ones so he has to see these ones too. He has to see the new set.”

Anastacia will release her sixth studio album Resurrection on May 5.
