| Wow This Kid Is Great. Is He The Future Elton John or Billy Joel? | | Last night I was introduced to a Youtube video of a 12 year old named Greyson Chance where he performs at his Sixth Grade Festival his rendition of Lady Gaga's Paparazzi. The video is one of those rapid fire ones that has gotten a lot of attention and has over 9 MILLION hits to it. His talent hasn't gone unnoticed, and only today, May 13th, he appeared on the Ellen DeGeneres Show and even got to speak to Lady Gaga on the phone while on the show.This kid is unbelievable. He also already has composed two of his own songs in which one can view them over at YouTube as well--Here's his performance of Lady Gaga's Paparazzihttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bxDlC7YV5isHere's the article about him on the Ellen DeGeneres Showhttp://www.mtv.com/news/articles/1639174/20100513/lady_gaga.jhtml So what do you think? I think this kid has great potential and could be the future Elton John or Billy Joel (my faves)When you were 12 years old could you perform in a recital like this? I sure as heck couldn't | |
| | "The B* is back!" Elton John | | Well, I told you guys that I caught the last cat who escaped last night.She was quiet all last night, but today, she's back to her normal crabby self.She's going after the other cats if they even LOOK at her, must less are going in the same direction she is or - even WORSE - standing between where she wants to go and herself!(Did I mention that of all the cats, she's the one I missed the least?)Oh well, her Blue-ness is back - in SPADES! | |

| Did you read Sir Elton John's letter to Ryan White? | | Do you remember Ryan White? The name rings a bell to me but I was pretty young at the time so I had to look up some background on him to refresh my 30 something mind of when I was a tween. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ryan_White Eitherway my friend has posted on FB about Sir Elton John's letter in the Washington Post to Ryan White, though it's been 20 years since his passing.... It's a touching letter, though Ryan will never read it but it is a reminder of his legacy and how society has changed since he was diagnosed and later his death from AIDS. http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2010/04/22/AR2010042203658.html John or Billy Joel (my faves)When you were 12 years old could you perform in a recital like this? I sure as heck couldn't | |
| | Has Elton John gone gaga? | | he is claiming in the papers that Jesus was gay and that he no longer wants to be famous in case he gets shot.Is this a cry for attention and publicity for new album or has our favourite wig wearing crooner finally lost his marbles? | |
|
| Elton John and Billy Joel | | I bought R some tickets for his birthday to see Elton John and Billy Joel in concert in November, so we're going to see them tomorrow. Huh? Well it's because Elton John got sick and the concert got rescheduled. Should be really good, I hope. First concert I've been to, seriously, since John Denver back in the late 70's or early 80's. What's the best concert you've ever been to? | |
| | Lady Gaga plus Sir Elton John | | Have you seen the opening act of the 2010 Grammys? Did you see Lady Gaga and Sir Elton John's performance? For me it was great! I like the combination and Gaga's song mixed with Elton John's. Gaga said she was speechless for that wonderful opportunity. | |
|
| What did you think of Lady Gaga's performance with Elton John? | | Lady Gaga has seemingly come out of nowhere this year. Deemed the Madonna 2.0, she has come out with hit after hit. 5 number one singles to be exact....off her FIRST album. Not even Madonna herself did that. This girl is the future of pop, and it shows with her opening for the Grammy's this year. Alongside her was none other than Elton John. I didn't even know he was still alive! Her outfit was awesome, the performance was awesome, and the duet with Elton was great. Her song mashed perfectly with his. What did you think of the performance? | |
| | Elton John's Adoption | | It's unbelievable that people are putting their moral beliefs before the need of other human beings. I am taking about the Elton John story. He tried to adopt a 14 month old HIV positive Ukrainian boy and was denied supposedly because of being to old and not married. We all know the real reason why he is not allowed to adopt this child. If a person has the love and means to adopt a sick infant who is otherwise condemn to live the rest of his life in an orphanage (Not many people will run to the opportunity of adopting an HIV positive child), why denied that opportunity to a child. I would like to hear your opinion on this matter. Should this adoption take place or be denied and why? | |

| Do you support the wish of Elton John? | | The singer from England Elton John want to adopt a child. He explore Africa to find his adopt child. Elton John with his couple, David Furnish, want to adopt the child again after get file in Ukraine. "We in Africa in the humanitarian aid and there we met a male child," said David. However, the Malawi child was still being connected with his father. "During knew if the child was still having the grandmother and relatives, we realised untrue if we take the child from his family," explained David. | |
| | Elton John wishes to adopt a baby boy..... Yes or no? | | It's been all over CNN the last day or so that Elton John met a baby boy at an AIDS charity event in the Ukraine. The little fellow that Elton and his partner David Furnish woshed to adopt is 14 months old and HIV positive. Authorities have apparently said no to his bid already because he's considered to be too old and is unmarried.So, do you believe it was a fair decision? Do you think his same-sex relationship status also played a part in the decision or is it clear cut on the age/marriage front?And please, no homophobic references of any description will be tolerated in this discussion. If you dare to go down that path, consider yourself warned. | |
