Sir Elton is defending his $1 million decision to perform at Rush Limbaugh's wedding once again, yet still no word on where the huge paycheck from one of the country's leading anti-gay voices has gone.
In an interview with The Telegraph, Elton says,
'When he asked me to play at his wedding, my agent said, “Well, of course you won’t be doing it,” ’ Elton says. 'But I said, “Well, let me think about that first.”’
When the Telegraph reminds Elton that Limbaugh is against marriage equality, he responds, "But then so is President Obama. But Limbaugh’s not anti-civil partnerships, so maybe I can have a dialogue about that. I’ve put my foot in the water and so has he. I got on with him very well, got on very well with his wife. I don’t have the same politics, but that doesn’t really matter. And I think this year I can start to put things in motion by trying to get him on my side."
Does this make you feel better about Elton?
