The long-haired rocker thinks Elton - who is in a civil partnership with partner David Furnish - would be the perfect choice to give Katy Perry's hit record a new lease of life.
He said: "I'm definitely going to pitch it to him that he should cover 'I Kissed a Girl'. But I need to buy him a Christmas present first, something really dirty!"
Kid Rock - who was previously married to former 'Baywatch' actress Pamela Anderson - also revealed he took a shine to Katy when they met at the MTV Europe Music Awards recently.
He laughed: "I got Katy drunk in Liverpool at the MTV awards, she's a nice girl. I thought she was British but she is actually from California.
"We were just shooting the s**t and I guess we just overdid it!"
Kid, 37, hinted he is hoping his new record will be his best yet, and will be previewing the exclusive material during his performance at London's Hammersmith Apollo on Sunday (30.11.08).
He added to Britain's Daily Star newspaper: "The next record is going to be collaborative, it should be fun as I have never had a lot of guests on things. I have already got stuff worked on with Mary J Blige. I'm also working on a really good rap thing."
