The Queen and The Queen.....

Today we move away from South African politics and move on to royalty.....no, not those annoying princes...or their relations, but the queens of pop.....yes, Elton John (still chuckle at the Sir part) and Madonna.

In a recent interview on an Aussie news and current affair program, old Elton went off at Mads....saying her career is over, her latest tour was a disaster and it could not happen to a bigger c$#@. And then he continues to knock her current music, calling her a 'fairground stripper'. Then the gem comes at the end.."She's been horrible to (lady) Gaga."

For some perspective...Lady Gaga (another misuse of the word'Lady') is godmother to Elton and his partner's (David Furnish) adoptive son, Zackery.
Here is the first point...Elton obviously has not know Gaga for long and besides, which sane person would make her a godmother of anything- including a pet goldfish.

Then old Mads, basically said that Gaga's song 'Born this way' was a rip off of 'Express yourself'..although she did think it was a 'wonderful way to redo my song'. Real Nasty Elton.

So, the Queen is at the Queen in a long and let's face it, boring public spat. 3 year old children display more maturity than this.

Another little thorn in old Elton's side, was that Madonna's 'Masterpiece' (from the movie WE) won a Golden Globe award where Queen Eltons songs for Gnomeo and Juliet did not.

And so this really childish and sadly public spat continues as neither covers themselves in glory and both seek to suck as much attention from their waning careers....instead of doing what the old rockers do....make music and shut up about shit...
