        I have been an Elton John fan since I was 11 years old. His music has helped me through too many difficult times to mention. Elton is a wonderful musician and a great humanitarian.  When I am listening to his music, his words and his voice  soothe my soul and all of the hurt and pain that I endured during the last 45 years.  Elton is true to self and always reinventing himself and his music. I love you Elton.

  • Photographic Exhibition (Update)

    Photographic Exhibition
    Statement from Jane Jackson, curator of the Elton John Photographic Collection
    By Press Release
    We have made arrangements to close the "Thanksgiving" Installation at The Baltic with immediate effect. It was always intended that the Installation be exhibited as a whole, and not on a piecemeal basis, and our decision has been made with regard to the artistic integrity of the work and the artist."

        Art is relative. Just because someone does not see it as art, that doesn't mean that its not. We as a society have put negative connotations on our "no no places." It is still a part of us, just like our arms or legs. What is the big deal. If there wasn't such a stigma there would be no issue at all. It is a little girl. It was not taken with any ill intent. Find something else to bitch about, like the deaths and hardship in Iraq. What about all of our nice clothes that we where? Guess who makes them little girls like the one in the picture from other countries. Children as young as 5 are making your Wal-mart clothes. That pisses me off. So I am taking away your little soap box and retiring it Kelly. Keep doing what you do Elton, you do not answer to these folks. xoxoxoxox

        "And that NO ONE has the right to touch them or do anything that makes them feel uncomfortable."

        Especially splashing pictures of them naked in exhibitions and all over the internet.Sorry I disagree, and I also think that even though he's a special artist with epic songs which have the most beautiful melodies and which everyone listens to anytime (taking myself as example), that doesn't mean that I have to agree with everything he does!

        Anyone who finds the picture in any way offensive has issues of their own. It is perfectly natural and normal for little girls to play that way i know mine did when they were younger. I feel society as a whole has become so over protective that children are not allowed to be children any more. The boogie man is out there yes but not around every corner and in every home. Children will learn soon enough about the dangers of the world. Do not teach them as babies their body is a shameful thing that should be hidden teach them it should be held sacred and protected. And that NO ONE has the right to touch them or do anything that makes them feel uncomfortable.

        All I can say is that I love you man. Always did and always will. God Bless You and your beautiful songs that you bring into this world. The times that I have been down, certain songs of yours have lifted me up and pulled me out of the hole. I don't know what pics these people are talking about, but I know that you wouldn't do anything malicious to hurt anyone. God Bless!

        Well if that photograph is art then I don't know the definition of art...

        I agree with Kelly and I'm quite disappointed.

        I see this as art, but we live in a screwed up world. Elton, I respect you choice in art , and it is such Our country is much more judgemental then most. You are in the public eye and I would hate to see people trash you as they have done in the past. You are in the public eye and every little tantrum , fued comment you make gets in the papers . This hurts when I hear people go off on you.You are human 1st and fore most,but being famous as you are,you are still a target. I would never even think of you changing who you are to suit others. That would be outragous!!!!!
        BUT PLEASE BE CAREFUL!! YOU FANS LOVE YOU , WHEN YOU HURT , WE HURT.

  • Photographic Exhibition

    Press Release courtesy of eltonjohn.com:

    The photograph entitled "Klara and Edda belly-dancing" (1998) is one of 149 images comprising the "Thanksgiving" installation by renowned US photographer Nan Goldin.

    The photograph exists as part of the installation as a whole and has been widely published and exhibited throughout the world. It can be found in the monograph of Ms Goldin's works entitled "The Devil's Playground" (Phaidon, 2003), has been offered for sale at Sotheby's New York in 2002 and 2004, and has previously been exhibited in Houston, London, Madrid, New York, Portugal, Warsaw and Zurich without any objections of which we are aware.

    Elton John is known as one of the world's foremost collectors of photographic art and has several thousand photographs in his collection, including works by Man Ray, Richard Avedon, Irving Penn, Diane Arbus and Ansel Adams.

    Elton John purchased the "Thanksgiving" installation from the White Cube gallery in London (contact: Deirdre Cott. + 44 (0)20 7930 5373) in 1999, and the installation is presently on loan to The Baltic Centre For Contemporary Art in Newcastle.

        I watched that show on TV just days before I set up my MySpace page. I was so jealous of everyone there!! I wrote about the event on my page under MUSIC, and I've kept it there through alll the adjustments I've made over the year. I'm going to have to make this purchase.
