A Gay Wedding Singer at a Homophobe’s Wedding?
First of all, we must say this…Elton John is one of THE BEST musicians in the universe. His songs has touched so many, and people all over were ‘Gaga’ over him before there was a ‘Radio Gaga’ or ‘Lady Gaga’.
Now that people know where we stand on our love for Elton John; what was going through his mind when he played for the wedding on none other than homophobe Rush Limbaugh and his now 4th wife Kathryn Rogers? Now, lets level the playing field, we have attended friend’s weddings that were between man and woman because they are our friends/family and they have given us huge support. So we are not anti-heterosexual weddings.
But for Elton John who finally got married to his husband, after decades of ‘Is he or isn’t he?’ and finally being able to show the world who Elton John is entirely, even though we knew him for 40+ years, and play at Rush Limbaugh’s FOURTH wedding??? What does this say? Is John just picking up a check for his philanthropy. Limbaugh is very outspoken of how he is against homosexuality and publicly comparing AIDS to Swine flu. Limbaugh will go the distance to get the ratings and the cash.
Who wins in this end? If Elton John will give the $1 million check from Limbaugh to his AIDS foundation, its kind of a nice slap in the face to Limbaugh. But still we are a little startled that John could sit there and serenade a room that honors a man who publicly bashes us.
