Sir Elton John shaved the eyebrows off a newspaper mogul as part of a stunt to raise money for U.K. charity Comic Relief.

The Rocket Man star picked up a pair of clippers to give a comedy makeover to Evgeny Lebedev, owner of the London Evening Standard and The Independent newspapers, shaving off both his eyebrows and his trademark beard.

The stunt was captured in a series of pictures posted on Lebedev's Instagram.com page as part of Comic Relief's Make Your Face Funny For Money drive.

Lebedev wrote in a caption, "Sir @eltonjohn shaved my entire face for @rednoseday."
