Elton John really really hates photographers

May 22nd, 2006 // 45 Comments

elton-john-hate-photog.jpgWhile presenting the Chopard Trophy to Kevin Zegers at Cannes Saturday, Elton John was interrupted by a photographer during his speech and lost it.

“He (Zegers) is only 21 years old, already he showed incredible talent and maturity,” said John, wearing dark glasses and accompanied by actress Elizabeth Hurley. “I sincerely believe he will be a huge star and a great actor for many, many years to come.” Then, as photographers called out during his address, he added: “If you saw ‘Transamerica’ … I’m talking … you fuckwit, fucking photographers you should be shot, you should be all shot. Thank you.” After handing the award to a smiling Zegers, he added: “They are a nightmare.”

You never know what that silly little man is gonna do next. One day he’s wearing glasses the size of my bed and the next he’s telling photographers to go get shot and die. He’s like Robin Williams with Tourette’s, only replace the out of control body hair with flashy suits made of purple zebra skin and polka dots.

    I’ve seen photos of Elton John. It looks like the photographers don’t like him either.

    The bitch is back!!!

    Why you wanna go start shit with Elton John in the first place.

    And I’m not kidding when I say that I will not shed one tear when of these days a coked up “celebrity” blows away on these papparazo douchebags. I’m betting on Gary Busey or a boozed Axel Rose, or that fat sweaty Baldwin guy.

    I knew there was a reason I always kinda loved Elton John. Not that I’ve listened to anything he’s put out in the last… I don’t even know how many years, but you have to respect him. That fucktard photographer should’ve had some manners.

    People want to be famous, then they don’t want the media attention that comes along with it.
    Frankly, the photographers would be doing the world a huge favor if they stop wasting film on that OLD UGLY ASS COCKSUCKER. He is so fugly and tacky, and his music sucks more than he does. He needs to take his diva, egotistical, i’m-so-freakin-better-than-though attitude and shove it up his dookie shoot, wait….he’d like that.

    He’s class. His other quote this morning on the news was that the awards ceremony was one of the last places on earth he would actually choose to go to but he was basically forced into it for promotional reasons. He’s cool. He tells it like it is.

    “Elton John throws public ‘hissy-fit’; fans concerned about dramatic change in behavior.”

    “Normally sedate Elton John goes on tirade aginst complete stranger; publicist blames new diet medication, points to thirty-plus year history of predictably staid and conservative public appearances.”

    “Elton John Admits to liking it, ‘the Irish Way’. Female fans express disappointment upon hearing announcement.”

    tautology, n.: 1. a statement or phrase that is seemingly redundant 2. Repetitive and self-obviating. (ex. “It ain’t over ’till it’s over”; “Like Robin Williams with Tourette’s”; “Elton John is gay”)

    I’m starting to question the whole “papparazzi made you” theory, it certainly doesn’t apply in Elton John’s or any of the old school recording stars, don’t tell me the papparazzi made Frank Sinatra famous ’cause that’s just bullshit. Those old school guys/gals (or queens) worked and recorded or acted their asses off.
    On the other hand the new school celebutards are in a symbiotic relationship with these leeches, there’s a difference.

    Uh, Just look at his gap-toothed smiling face.

    “Yes, I love the cock. It’s really quite fabulous.”
    “Yes, I will take it up the ass, though my ‘husband’ is usually the one who grabs his ankles. His anus is much more elastic than mine, you know. Besides, I’m SIR Elton John, I’ve been knighted, and it just wouldn’t do for a knight to be the bitch in the relationship. You understand.”

    Feed_Me, I like your theory, but for some reason I can’t see Dame Elton being anything but the bitch in a relationship. I wonder how it works with 2 dicks and neither one wants to step up and use it. They probably use something artificial….*vomit*…..

    Gerald, I don’t know…him being the “man” (and I use that term in the very loosest sense of the word) in the relationship seems to be more plausible, since his lover is young enough to be his son, and it would fit the old man/young boy template for sodomy. Either way, it’s a nauseating thought.

    SIR BOB GELDOF has been awarded the 2006 Lyndon Baines Johnson Moral Courage Award from the Holocaust Museum in Houston, Texas. Geldof was honoured for organising the 1985 Live Aid concert at the museum’s annual dinner on Sunday night (21MAY06). He said, “I can honestly say I feel fraudulent standing here among survivors of the Holocaust. Their greatest triumph was that they defeated history. Their unique triumph is the grace with which they lived their lives.” The Irishman explained his inspiration for the star-studded event came after watching an advertisement showing the famine-stricken people in Ethiopia. He said, “The next day I thought, this requires more than simply putting a pound in the charity box.”

    Troubled singer BOY GEORGE insists his recent New York City drugs arrest is not the reason behind his return to London – it was the city which depressed him. The former CULTURE CLUB star, who was charged with cocaine possession and wasting police time for falsely reporting a burglary at his Manhattan flat, claims he was mad to ever think he would be happy living so far away from his family. He says, “That was a moment of insanity! New York is a great place to visit but it’s not a good place to live. Not for me anyway. “I need to be around my friends, my family. When I got back – I came back when I got arrested – and spent some time with my family, I suddenly realised that I’d been so miserable for months. “To start with I was fine but after a while I started to feel really isolated, which isn’t good for me.”

    A South African photographer trying to take pictures of BRAD PITT and ANGELINA JOLIE was arrested in Namibia on Friday night (19MAY06). JOHN LIEBENBERG was arrested for trespassing on ground between Walvis Bay police station and the adjoining medical clinic, where Jolie is expected to give birth to her first biological child over the next few days. Police spokesperson SALMI KATSHUNA says, “Liebenberg was found trespassing as he entered the yard of police premises neighbouring onto the Welwitschia Medi Clinic. “Police officers found him there before and warned him not to enter the yard again, but this did not stop him.”

    Actress MIA FARROW was terrified during filming for the remake of 1960s horror film THE OMEN, because of the ‘curse’ that struck her co-stars on another satanic film, ROSEMARY’S BABY. WOODY ALLEN’s ex admits the film reminded her of the 1968 ROMAN POLANSKI movie and the horrendous events that occurred afterwards – star SIDNEY BLACKMER and Polanksi’s wife SHARON TATE died within a few years of the film’s release. Farrow says, “I remember the scene where people were toasting Satan and dear old SIDNEY BLACKMER (who played Satanist ROMAN CASTEVET), saying, ‘This isn’t good, this is very bad luck.’ “Sure enough, the next year Sidney was blind and then he died. There were many deaths. Roman’s beautiful wife Sharon”. Polanski’s pregnant wife Sharon was murdered by serial killer CHARLES MANSON’s followers in August 1969.

    British supermodel KATE MOSS has enrolled her daughter LILA GRACE in a private London preparatory school – putting an end to rumours she was moving to the US. The 32-year-old catwalk queen, who was last year (05) involved in a drug scandal and fled to the US for rehabilitation, had put her three-year-old into a LA nursery, prompting reports she would make the Californian city her home. However, friends have confirmed the beauty has decided Britain will remain her home. One friend says, “Kate wants to stay here. It’s where her friends and family live.”

    …and
    …the funniest
    …thing
    we’ve
    read
    today…

    Tommy Hilfiger and Axl Rose spent Thursday night at a new club called The Plumm in New York, but Hilfiger ended up punching Axl repeatedly after he moved his girlfriend’s drink.

    “I moved his girlfriend’s drink so it wouldn’t spill,” Rose told the Los Angeles radio station KROQ on Friday. “It was the most surreal thing, I think, that’s ever happened to me in my life.” According to the 44-year-old singer, Hilfiger, 55, smacked him in the arm and told him to put the drink back. “He just kept smacking me,” Rose said. Rose was there to play a surprise set for “Rent” actress Rosario Dawson for her 27th birthday party. Rose did perform, and dedicated the song “You’re Crazy” to “my good friend Tommy Hilfiger.”
    Yeah, I’d say being punched repeatedly by Tommy Hilfiger qualifies as surreal. It’d be like sharing a bathroom with Brad Pitt and catching him taking peaks over the urinal, occasionally complimenting you on how large and perfectly shaped your penis is. How are you supposed to react to that? I mean, I just punched him in the face and ran out the door sceaming, but there’s probably a more civilized way to deal with that knd of thing.
