Tony Danza was on Meredith Vieira‘s show today and she brought up that a lot of people confuse the lyrics of Elton John’s song Tiny Dancer for Tony Danza. As she was talking about it, he stopped her mid-thought and told her he has to come clean. He revealed, “It really is. It’s a song that Elton wrote about me. For years, I have said it wasn’t. But now, I let you know.”
Then Meredith reacted by saying, “He had a mancrush on you.” Without missing a beat the Who’s the Boss? said, “It was more than that.” I would love to see the magic Taxi ride they took together that inspired that beautiful song.
