Elton John invited Scissor Sisters stars Jack Shears and Babydaddy to stay with him this week.
The singers, who were visiting London to play a secret gig, were surprised when Elton insisted that his friends shouldn't have to pay for pricey hotels and offered them a room each.
A source told the Daily Star, "Elton features on the new Scissor Sisters album and has been a long-time admirer and friend of the band. He is especially close to Jake and Babydaddy.
"Elton and his partner David Furnish love having guests so when they knew the band would be in town they were told to forget booking a Park Lane suite but to take their suitcases direct to Elton's."
