Elton John is a Daddy

Did you forget about Sad Songs and Nikita?

Not entirely the pinnacle of his career, but still good songs IMO

 

i admit to being both snarky and willfully ignorant about the popular music of the 1980s

:devil:

 

congrats mr and mr elton arty:

i wonder if he has his fathers hair...

 

Congrats, Elton and David! I am glad they received such a beautiful Christmas surprise from above

 

I think it's great news! Actually when I heard it I was slightly surprised that they hadn't done it earlier.

 

Agreed. As amazing it must be to have your own child, there are a LOT of babies and kids that need a home.

 

Great for them but too be honest I feel sorry for that kid.

 

I'm going to throw a spanner in the works and say this. Maybe the kid is going to miss having a mum? OK so his two dad's are two raving queens, but it's not really the same thing.

I was adopted, and for the greater part of my early life I was raised by three women, my adopted mother, her mother (my gran), and her sister (my great aunt). It's a wonder I never turned out gay to be honest.

Anyway, I remember that I really missed having a dad. Not say that gay people shouldn't foster children, but you have to be fair to the kids as well.

 

I'm really happy for Elton. I absolutely adooooore him. And they're rich and famous, what makes you think there wouldn't be a female parental figure in the picture? I wonder how to apply for that position...an au pair to Elton John. Heeelllllllllllll yes.

 

Oh I am sure there would be lots actually haha. Two gay men and a baby? They'll be queuing up at the door fighting for the job as nanny, I doubt either of them will need to change a single nappy.

 

Good for them Zachary Jackson Levon Furnish-John is a very unfortunate name for the child though. lol That 30 fuckin letters. haha Ridiculous.

But yeah....good for there. I think that's awesome

 

Hyphenated names?

I thought we were over that phase

 

Ill be dammed..Just like the song. Levon was born a pauper to a pawn on a christmas day and the new york times said god was dead......Thats just seems so right for Eltons kid..Cool.... Levon Bennet (Benny) Furnish-John..That one I could see too..

 

pair of Queens rock on!!!:sunny:

 

Elton John, the bitch is back and with a son cooooooooollllllll!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Aww, I bet they'll never forget this Christmas gift. How neat! Lucky guys.

 

This is not funny. Baby Zachary is being deprived of a mother. How is he supposed to know what a mother is, what a woman is? What will his sex drive be like, having homosexuality imprinted on him from day one? It is nothing to joke about. It's an awful tragedy.

​

 

That song makes me cry, that and Daniel.

 

I think you're joking here, but in case you're not ...

You know, it's kinda like all those children of hippies who had Communism imprinted on them. Or all those Black children had hip-hop and basketball imprinted on them. Or how about Republican children having guns and heartlessness imprinted on them.

And let us never dare to forget those tragic children of comedians. Imagine having to go through life having to laugh at every damn thing your parents said.

 

You got to be kidding right? Im adopted and my family is the mom and dad who raised me. Your family is the people who raise and care for and about you. That family can be two guys, two women, a commune whatever. As long as they nuture and teach and care it doesnt have to be a mom and A dad specific or alone figures for that matter. Now nobody took me aside and said look son this is what a woman is ect. I figured out all by myself at an eary age I liked girls. boys spend more time hanging with their dads anyways. Dads the one that taught me to drive a tractor and the truck turn a wrench ect.. I guess mom was the bigger influence with me learning to read ect of course she taught school too... Maybe this kid will be straight or maybe this kid will be gay but thats already wired into him. It has nothing to do with the enviroment. Real tragidy for a kid would be to be raised in a hostile enviroment or a very unreasonable envriroment like a lot of the religous zelots that we have running loose...The way they turn out, now thats a tragidy.
