Team Elton John reached out to President Joe Biden's administration to ask if he could play at the White House despite Donald Trump's long admiration for the singer and his attempt to get him to play his inauguration.
While the current first couple are fans, Biden's predecessor in the White House, Donald Trump, long considered John a personal friend and was reported to be 'obsessed' with him.
'His team expressed an interest on his behalf,' a White House official said of John, who will perform on the South Lawn on Friday night.

Elton played at the Limbaugh wedding, quite happily.
Any torrential rains in the forecast?

Just my humble opinion but the political climate is so toxic when it comes to Trump people are just protecting their brand. I don't agree with that, but look what they have done to Lindell and others. Would I park my car in Boise, Idaho with a Trump bumper sticker? Hell no, unless I wanted it vandalized. I don't like this at all. BTW, I'm not sure I'm a fan of Elton anymore for a lot of other reasons.

Of course, Rush paid Sir Elton for the privilege (rumors were it was about $1 million). But I'll hand it to Sir Elton, if Rush's story was correct, both of them were staying in the same hotel in Hawaii. Rush had some heart issues while there and was briefly hospitalized. Sir Elton sent Rush and Katherine (prior to the wedding) his wife a note wishing them well, and it lead to the agreement to play a private concert at the wedding.
I guess the "stars" would rather play for a senile old fool. Well, as Laura Ingraham wrote, "Shut Up and Sing."
Some of us, primarily on the right, are willing to put politics aside and recognize and enjoy the talents that our good Lord gave people, such as Sir Elton John and others. Elton has been blessed with great talents and showmanship. I've enjoyed the couple of concerts that I attended. I'll put the politics aside.

I'll be watching PDT at his rally tonight.
PDT's 'friends' are self-sorting.

Reminds me of the sleazy Garth Brooks playing at child molesting pervert Biden's crowning and declaring he did it to help unify America. People like Brooks and John have zero decency and less honor.

I remember an interview with Elton John after being in Rush's wedding. Disappointed.

Sir Elton knows where his bread is buttered. Nothing personal, Don...but I'm openly LGBT+++, you know. Can't be seen with a homophobe and sell out arenas.
I'm not sorry to have departed Sir Elton's appearance at the 2003 Harley-Davidson 100th Anniversary bash early. He left shortly thereafter, too.

Here's one for ya, Sir Elton... to the tune of Goodbye Yellow Brick Road. Feel free to sing it at Joe's funeral.
When are ya gonna fall down?
Why are you smelling your hand?
You should have stayed underground...
You're babbling, you senile old man.
They know you can't hold on forever.
Nobody voted for you.
You're the Big Guy that Hunter kicks up to,
You showed up on his laptop toooooo.
So Goodbye, Callow Sick Joe.
Take your dogs at the White House and go.
They keep biting your bodyguard detail
You can't trust the Germans you knowwwwww.
You're a howling old man on our front yard.
Sniffing young girl's hair, you old toad.
Oh I've finally decided our future lies
Without you, Old Sick Callow Joe.

Reginald Kenneth Dwight (aka Elton John) is but a husk of a homo these days. A truly mixed up human being.

I haven't listened to Elton John since his first two albums then shelved the little flaky floozie for what he is a flaky floozie.

As Forest Gump told us, "Genderqueer is as genderqueer does." And nobody does genderqueer like Elton John and Joe Biden.
