So Elton John's surrogate gave birth to a baby boy for christmas and now everyone is getting their nipples in a twist. The UK's Daily Mail writes:
"I can’t help feeling that his decision to become a father is another grotesque act of selfishness from Sir Elton, and that the child is a little Christmas bauble he and his partner have awarded themselves. How telling it is that he was born on Christmas Day. [snip] He [Sir Elton] is also an aging, pampered, self-indulgent millionaire — look at the absurd names he and Furnish have given the poor child, for heaven’s sake! And it is the nagging suspicion that Elton — a man who is by nature an obsessive — has simply acquired a son to satisfy his latest fixation that I find repellent."
I can't help but agree with them. Elton seems like the kind of self indulgent narcissist who would "buy" a child to add to his collection of items he has acquired in life. I know I'm just being a judgey queen but I can't help but feel a little sorry for the kid. I also find it really selfish that he finally decided to have the kid at 62 so by the time his kid is 20 he'll be dead and the kid will never really know his father.
