Elton John Talks Prop 8

Sir Elton John, who got married to his Canadian partner David Furnish the first day civil partnerships were allowed in England, recently spoke to etalk in Canada about the ruling in California that upheld Prop 8. The singer said “That’s just awful. I mean when you see places like Iowa saying yes and there’s now five states [in favour] in America…and California is supposed to be a progressive state it just defies logic to me and I’m very disappointed with that.” Very well said. Considering the very diverse cultures in California, I’m really surprised that the state is turning out to be the most stuck up of them all regarding the matter.

Piers Morgan said his heart “absolutely bleeds” for Susan Boyle after media reports she flipped out in a hotel lobby.

Susan, 47, reportedly had a foul-mouthed rant after she heard judge Piers, 44, praising another contestant on Britain’s Got Talent.

It is claimed Susan was later spoken to by police when she had another dispute with reporters.

Piers wrote on his blog: “Imagine, if you will, being anonymous for 47 years of your life, and then suddenly being propelled into genuine world superstardom. For many people, it would be a dream come true.”

He added: “All that fame and attention, and the prospect of all that money to come with it down the line. But let me tell you now, there is a downside to fame. People start criticising you, sniping at you, trying to trip you up, belittle you, harass you.”

The semi-finals are still taking place to find the final contestants to compete in the upcoming final. Susan already has a place in the final after appearing in the first semi-final and winning the public vote.

Piers added: “Then imagine, too, having all this go on when you are days away from the final of a competition that can make or break your career and your life. A competition that everyone expects you to win, a fact that in itself piles on even more pressure. This is exactly the situation that Susan Boyle now finds herself in.”

He added: “And my heart absolutely bleeds for the poor woman.”
