Elton John Apologizes To Madonna For Insults

ELTON JOHN has ended his FEUD with MADONNA.

The two legendary artists have been embroiled in a public feud for years, with it seemingly starting after John criticised Madonna’s title track for the 2002 James Bond film “Die Another day”. At the time, John called it “the worst Bond tune ever”.

In 2007, John accused the pop star of “lip-synching” during her live shows. Five years later, John reignited the feud when he told Madonna to “lip-synch good” ahead of her Super Bowl Halftime show.

In 2012, he also called her “a fairground stripper”, said “her career is over”, and criticised her for calling Lady Gaga’s “Born This Way” “reductive”.

That same year, when Madonna won Best Original Song at the Golden Globes, she hit back at John during her acceptance speech, saying: “[John is] brilliant, and I adore him, so he’ll win another award. I don’t feel bad.”

Now, Madonna has taken to Instagram to confirm that she and John have ended their feud after she confronted him during his appearance on “Saturday Night Live” this past weekend.

“We Finally Buried the Hatchet!!!” Madonna wrote. “I went to see Elton John perform on SNL this weekend!! WOW.”

She continued: “I remembered when I was in high school- I snuck out of the house one night to see Elton perform live in Detroit! It was an unforgettable performance that helped me understand the transformative power of music.

“Seeing him perform when I was in high school changed the course of my life. I had always felt like an outsider growing up and watching him on stage helped me to understand that it was OK to be different-to stand out- to take the road, less traveled by. In fact, it was essential.

“Over the decades it hurt me to know that someone I admired so much shared his dislike of me publicly as an artist. I didn’t understand it. I was told Elton John was the musical guest on SNL and I decided to go.

“I needed to go backstage and confront him. When I met him, the first thing out of his mouth was, ‘Forgive Me’ and the wall between us fell down. Forgiveness is a powerful tool. Within minutes. We were hugging.

“Then he told me had written a song for me and he wanted to collaborate. It was like everything came full circle!!”

John replied to Madonna’s post with a lengthy comment, writing:

“Thank you for coming to see me at SNL. And thank you for forgiving me and my big mouth. I’m not proud of what I said. Particularly when I think about all the groundbreaking work you have done as an artist – paving the way for an entire generation of female artists to succeed and be true to themselves. You were also one of the very first people to rise up against HIV/AIDS in the 80’s, bringing love and compassion to so many who desperately needed it.”

John continued: “I’m grateful we can move forward. I’m increasingly distressed by all the divisiveness in our world at the moment. Both you and I have wholeheartedly been accepted and embraced by communities who are under threat around the world. By pulling together, I’m hopeful that we can make great things happen for those who really need support. And have a lot of fun doing it.”
