Paris Hilton seemingly confirmed there is a collaboration coming from Elton John and Britney Spears.

Hilton, a friend of Spears, was asked about the track by Paul Door Je Neus as she made her way to the stage at the Tomorrowland festival in Belgium.

“I know. It’s going to be iconic,” she replied. “I just heard it a couple days ago in Ibiza and it is, it’s insane.”

According to ET, Hilton “misspoke” about hearing the song and only meant that she had heard about it.

The Rolling Stones and U2 are the top touring acts of the past 40 years, according to data published last week.
