Elton John
Oh dear. Sir Elton has spoken out on his true feelings about Madonna and whether or not you agree, it’s pretty damn funny.
“Sorry, her career is over. Her tour has been a disaster and it couldn’t happen to a bigger c***. If Madonna had any common sense she would have made a record like Ray Of Light and stayed away from the dance stuff and just been a great pop singer and make great pop records, which she does brilliantly. But no, she had to go and prove… she looks like a f****** fairground stripper. She’s been horrible to Gaga.” – Elton John

Plan B
Ben Drew, better known as Plan B won 3 Ivor Novello Awards in England yesterday. I really love his album “The Defamation of Strickland Banks.” It’s got so many styles of music including soul, rap, pop, jazz and I think every song on it is great. Most of the world has caught on, but not surprisingly, the album is too genre defying for America. Plan B spoke about not making it big in America and he said this:
“I’m too white for the black radio stations and I’m too black for white radio stations so nobody knows where to place me. It just seems to be a lot of cock sucking that has to go on in order to get your music to get played to the masses and I’m just not prepared to suck cock really.” – Plan B
I really hope he enjoys success in the States. I’ve seen a lot of bands over the last few years that I think are really great and they can’t seem to make a splash here. It’s very sad considering some of the drivel that is chart topping, but the old adage rings true once again – the masses are asses.
In other Plan B news, his track “Hard Times” has been re-released featuring guest vocals from Elton John and Paloma Faith. The proceeds of the single will be donated to relief efforts in Japan and Pakistan.

Elton John
Set to premiere at 8:15 pm on Wednesday, April 20, 2011, The Union chronicles the making of the 2010 album of the same name, a collaboration between pop icon Elton John and legendary rock ‘n’ roll keyboardist Leon Russell. Crowe is, of course, known for making classic music narratives, including Singles (1992) and Almost Famous (2000), and fans can’t wait to see what he does in the documentary format with Elton and Leon.
We’ve been working hard on a plan for the opening night event, which will be co-sponsored by AOL, supported by Goldman Sachs, and hosted by Brookfield Properties, the owner of the World Financial Center, the location of the outdoor festivities. And special thanks to ESPN.
Here’s the scoop:
• A TFF wristband is required to be seated at the event.
• Wristbands will be distributed to the public on a first-come, first-served basis on April 20 at 4:00 pm.
• The distribution site is the BMCC Tribeca Performing Arts Center–at the West Side Highway entrance, just north of Chambers.
• There will be a limit of two wristbands per person.
• When you get your wristband, you will also get a list of details about how, when, and where to find your seat.
• The screening will begin at 8:15 pm on April 20, 2011
• Details are still being firmed up, but programming at the Plaza may begin at approximately 7:30.
• Note: Venue access and capacity are at the discretion of the NYPD.
