Cara Delevingne is the spitting image of Elton John.

On Wednesday, December 18, the 77-year-old “Candle in the Wind” musician released a cheesy visual remake of his 1973 holiday classic “Step into Christmas” starring the 32-year-old actress/model.

In the new video, which takes cues from John’s original visual for the track, Delevingne dresses up as the “Tiny Dancer” hitmaker in drag-and-play attire as a production crew hustles around the video’s holiday set with a festive feather boa , balloons and confetti decorated. Meanwhile, chaos reigns as the team deal with an escaped turkey, fail to book a real reindeer, and attack a fan who storms the set.

The image also shows a version of John with Delevingne from 1973 as they sing together.

“I saw Cara at Glastonbury last summer and we talked about how much we would love to work together if the right idea came along,” John said in a statement. “She’s hilarious to spend time with; We both have a pretty self-deprecating sense of humor. When someone suggested the idea of ​​her playing me in a version of the 1973 “Step Into Christmas” video, I just thought it was the perfect opportunity. Thank God Cara thought the same thing because it turned out great.”

For Delevingne, John has always been “an idol of hers.” “To say his music has had a profound effect on me is an understatement,” she said in a statement. “Being asked by him to PLAY in that game was a dream I didn’t know I had until it happened. Honestly, I wish I could pretend to be Elton every day. I hope that one day Elton will return the favor and agree to play me in my not yet developed, written, pitched or financed biopic.
