Furious Elton John Calls for Boycott of Dolce and Gabbana Over IVF Comments

Furious Elton John Calls for Boycott of Dolce and Gabbana Over IVF Comments Sir Elton John on Sunday called for a boycott of the swank fashion house Dolce & Gabbana after the founders declared their opposition to same-sex marriage and gay adoptions in an interview with an Italian fashion magazine.

D&G, which has clothed some of the celebrity world's top stars, was founded 30 years ago by Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbano. Their designs have been worn by Angelina Jolie, Scarlett Johansson, Christian Bale and many other movie stars.

But the founders, who were once a couple, told the magazine Panorama they supported "traditional marriage."

John, who married his longtime partner David Furnish last December, issued a furious retort on his Instagram account, saying he would never wear Dolce and Gabbana again and calling on others to join a boycott of the company.

The British singer-songwriter, who has two children born via a surrogate, was especially annoyed at Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbano for their comments about the children of gay couples. They told the publication that kids who aren't born into traditional families are "children of chemistry."

John responded: "How dare you refer to my beautiful children as "synthetic." And shame on you for wagging your judgmental little fingers at IVF — a miracle that has allowed legions of loving people, both straight and gay, to fulfill their dream of having children."

Of course. "Thynthetic" would be more accurate.

Somebody needs to boycott Elton John. He should be in prison for what he has done to two innocent children.

Isn’t Elton being a bit judgmental himself here?

So, basically, a bisexual rock star is complaining that two fashion designers aren’t gay enough?

Dolce&Gabbana say comments about family not meant to judge

The designers, who are gay and formerly were a couple, have put the traditional family at the center of their last two collections, sending a pregnant model and models with their own children down the runway to celebrate motherhood for next winter's womenswear collection, while featuring grandmothers with their grandsons for menswear.

Torahman, Ezekiel,

I agree with all y’all!

Any nation condoning perversion will create a vacuum, and from that will spring persecution of those who follow righteousness.

This persecution will not go unnoticed, and such nation will bring on itself the Judgement.

Does the Talmud say why G-d deems homosexuality an abomination?

How about that freak David Tuterra, the wedding planner guy? He was “married” for a short time but the “husband” got tired of Tuterra’s constant need to bring a third party into their bedroom and wanted a divorce. The problem was, they had a surrogate pregnant with twins. They got their “divorce”, surrogate had babies and each pervert got themselves a baby to play with. Didn’t hear about this, did you? It was buried pretty fast.
