During the interview, Taron discussed how when he and girlfriend Emily Thomas vacationed with Elton John, the 72-year-old entertainer gave Taron the drag name Blodwyn Campervan.

“I have a camper van — like a VW [RV] — that I spend a lot of time in,” Taron revealed about the inspiration behind his drag name. “He finds that very funny, for some reason. So my name is ‘Blodwyn’ — which is a Welsh name — ‘Blodwyn Campervan.’”

Taron added, “Actually, that night, after he’d gone to bed, I stole his Polaroid camera and wore some of my girlfriend’s clothes and did a little photoshoot and left it there in the kitchen for them for after we’d left of me dressed as my vision of Blodwyn Campervan.”

If you didn’t know, Dexter Fletcher also directed Rami in Bohemian Rhapsody, taking over after Bryan Singer was fired from the project.

In fact, there was even early consideration by the director to have Rami‘s portrayal of Freddie Mercury in Rocketman!

“There was an idea I had one point, where Elton’s in a restaurant with his mother. I thought John Reid and Freddie could be at another table and they wave at each other! That would have been amazing, [but] it didn’t come to pass. It would’ve been a little too knowing…I’m not looking to set out to make a cinematic universe!” Dexter told Gay Star News.
