Ben Stiller Teaches Elton John How to 'Blue Steel' on 'Graham Norton Show' [WATCH]

Ben Stiller: Looking Up

"It's a six-part process," Stiller said of the "Blue Steel" facial expression. "It starts, first of all, with the thought, the inception of it. Secondly, it's starting to feel it in the lower part of your body, and then allowing it to come up, and then really pushing through from the diaphragm up through the throat and out through the nose. Without thinking at all. You just have to clear your mind, it's probably the biggest thing."

John then compared the posh look of "Blue Steel" to Victoria Beckham's posing. She's got that look right down," the singer said of Beckham, who he briefly worked with in Spice World. "Always. All the girls know how to look at the right angle. They go...," John added while pouting, leading the Graham Norton Show to describe the expression as a "fish gape."

As the episode went on, John almost endures an injury during the Zoolander 2 cast's effort to take a group shot with an impressively long selfie stick. When the attempts come up short, John reprises the "fish gape" for a classic seflie of himself, Norton, Jack Black and more sequel cast members.

The "Crocodile Rock" singer recently delivered an impromptu performance of "Tiny Dancer" in a London train station to passerbys before signing and gifting the piano to those he left behind.
