Elton John not invited to royal wedding
By CMU Editorial | Published on Wednesday 26 January 2011
Well, if re-writing a song for someone’s dead mother isn’t enough to get you an invite to their wedding, I don’t know what is. Still, Elton John doesn’t seem that bothered that he won’t get to see Prince William marry Kate Middleton live. It’s probably better watching it on TV anyway, cos you can get up and go to the loo. Or you could just tape it and then fast forward through the boring bits (possibly all of it) later.
John told Reuters: “I think because of my relationship with Princess Diana, people automatically think I’m going to be invited. I just wish them the happiest of lives together. … I’m not invited to the wedding, I would not expect to be invited to the wedding. I don’t really know the boys at all. I met the boys and had lunch with them when their mother was alive … They’re tremendous boys, but I don’t know them [so] it would be presumptuous of me to even talk about them. They are great boys, their mum would be very proud of them”.
I’ve edited this, he said “boys” even more than that.
