Robert Kraft Threw a Star-Studded Fourth of July Party at His Hamptons Mansion — with a Performance by Elton John (Exclusive)

New England Patriots CEO Robert Kraft went all out for the Fourth of July this year, throwing a star-studded party that included a performance from none other than Sir Elton John.

An inside source tells PEOPLE that the exclusive event was held at the billionaire’s lavish mansion in Bridgehampton, N.Y. The source also says the party was attended by such stars as Jerry Seinfeld, Mike Tyson, Sylvester Stallone and Jon Bon Jovi, and the festivities even included a fireworks display featuring John’s face.

The insider also reveals that John, 78, hugged Kraft, 84, along with his wife, Dana Blumberg, before the performance, noting that Blumberg wore a sparkly orange gown for the occasion.

A since-deleted video from the event shared on social media showed John arriving for his performance in a golf cart decorated with lavish white feathers. He emerged on the stage in a bright yellow ensemble and custom red sunglasses. He then sat down to play on a red piano.

Other shots from the video showed an ornate pool decorated with red and white roses, disco balls, and guests enjoying martinis and steak.

Images of the evening shared on Instagram by drone photographer Marianne Barnett showed an aerial view of the party, revealing the many glass walls of the beachfront mansion lit up in various shades of purple, yellow and blue.
