Elton disses up Madonna, AGAIN

Sir Elton John launched a vitriolic attack on Madonna today, accusing her of cheating fans by miming on stage.
The star targeted the Queen of Pop in his latest public outburst.
Attending the Q Awards to pick up a prize for his songwriting, Sir Elton was incensed to find Madonna had been nominated for best live act.
Taking to the stage, Sir Elton blasted: 'Madonna - best f**ing live act? F*** off. Since when has lip-synching been live? Anyone who lip-synchs in public on stage when you pay £75 to see them should be shot.'
He ended his rant by saying: 'That's me off her f***ing Christmas card list but do I give a toss? No.'
Madonna did not win the award - that honour went to British band Muse.
She was nominated for her Re-Invention tour. The show attracted criticism in some quarters because tickets were so expensive.
Today's outburst at the Grosvenor House Hotel in Central London came after Sir Elton hit the headlines last month by branding Taiwanese photographers 'rude, vile pigs' in an airport bust-up.

Madonna responded to Elton John's outburst this afternoon with this short but sweet statement from Liz Rosenberg:
Madonna doesn't lip-synch, and does not spend her time trashing other artists.
However Elton John is still on her Christmas card list whether he is naughty or nice!

My thoughts:

I like Elton's music but Elton can go to hell. All he does now in days is make fun of people and swear the f-word. He is such a queeny asswipe and should learn to shut his mouth when he slanders people.

I founf it ok to diss her song "die another day" but saying she lip synchs when she doesn't lol

Elton, find a new hobby, like make a new record and shut your face.

Elton John, George Michael, Boy George, and RuPaul are just upset that Madonna is a bigger queer icon than they are.

They can't knock Cher because no one really does, they can't touch Judy cause she is Dorthy, Liza gets by for being Dorthy's daughter, Barbara has vocie that can't be messed with, Bette performed in a bathhouse for crying outloud so they don't trash her, Donna got her's with the AIDS comment a few years ago, but Madonna is fair game for anyone to take a pot shot at.

This is hilarious. I love it when Elton shoots from the hip.
All you Madonna fans should just take it with a grain of salt. Dude was just airing his feelings. He sounded like somebody's drunk uncle after his favorite football team lost. lol

She mimed to Vouge. She always has, but you can hear her singing over the canned vocals. She might have mimed Nobody Knows Me. The jury is still out on that one. The rap on American Life was mimed as well. Other than that the rest of the show was live. I've heard the audio to 6 different shows.

madge has certainly lip synched in the past...and on this tour. believe me, i was close enough to see it. it was only on one or two songs but the clip track was most certainly in use. does it change the fact that the tour was the best concert of my life...no! elton is an old sow and madonna lip syncs. there...now we're even. lol

parts of nobody knows me were definitely mimed. i actually saw her with her mouth closed and mic not in front of her face yet heard her voice. either that's miming or some really fucking fantastic telepathy!

Elton's just having another one of his famous tantrums, but I gotta say that he's absolutely right!

The comments by Dewrede are right on too.

These outbursts get him in the news more than his music and he knows it. Kind of sad, really.

I think you people are missing the point.

Had Elton said something like "I think Madonna is a no talented slut and can't sing and is an attention whore, yada yada yada" I wouldn't care.

But Madonna was nominated for best live performance (which she didn't win for those of you who hate her and take pride in her failures) and Elton said she didn't sing but lip synched. She most certainly sang, i was their live and up close and know she was singing. And to prove she was singing she forgot the words to Material Girl at one of the Toronto shows, so it was certainly a live show. Elton slandered, and that is all.

I think it is a very smart practice Esther has on not attacking other singers/artists.

I love the fact the man doesn't give a fuck.

And i know 4a fact there are at least parts of that show that she lip synchs.
"London, i've adopted a name that has no pronounciation.... is that cool with you?"

"YEAH!!!"

"Yeah, well then fuck those other fools!"
