No fan of Elton John, the man, but this is beautifully ironic. A middle eastern country bans Elton because he called Jesus, the Christian Messiah, "a gay man", (which I consider blasphemy) and whined about the Muslim taboo against homosexual behavior.

Why then, would this aging rock star (he's 63) want to play a concert in any middle eastern venue? It's absurd. Nice to see a multimillionaire, sheltered and pampered, narcissistic hedonist like Elton John get a dose of reality once in awhile.

In a normal man's older age he's supposed to be pursuing a little more intelligence, wisdom and maturity. A man with integrity probably even realizes it's time to become less selfish.

All the depraved and perverted gay men like Elton who are aging are the epitome of rogue selfish, arrogant, greasy lipped prix! The more they age the more perverted they get! It's a sickness, no doubt.
