ELTON JOHN HAS CONVENIENT MEMORY LAPSES WHEN IT COMES TO PRINCESS DIANA
Gotta disagree with Elton John once again. Elton is irate because UK press pointed out that Prince Harry claims to care about the environment, yet he and Meghan and their baby flew on a private jet to visit Elton’s estate in France. Elton tweeted it was HIS idea to fly private, and blasted the press for disrupting the couple’s “safety and tranquility.” He went so far as to say “Prince Harry’s mother Diana was one of my closest friends and I feel obliged to protect Harry and his family from the unnecessary press intrusion that contributed to Diana’s death!“ Elton has conveniently forgotten that Diana and her boyfriend Dodi Fayed were killed by their own drunk chauffeur who was speeding. The driver worked for Dodi Fayed’s family, and Dodi was famous for courting the press. He liked to tip them off as to where he and Diana would be. In fact, he was SO nice to reporters that he provided me, the gossip columnist for Star Magazine, an expensive lunch for two at the Ritz Hotel in Paris and a Ritz bathrobe to take home, among other gifts. Dodi Fayed’s father felt guilty and embarrassed that HIS drunk driver got Diana and his own son killed, and he dedicated his life to blaming paparazzi. So Elton, wise up!
