Elton John is Finally a Father!

Finally, Elton John can call himself a father.

The pop rock superstar and his long-time husband, David Furnish, announced to Us Weekly that they have had a child via a surrogate mother in California. Their son, named Zachary Jackson Levon Furnish-John, was born on Christmas day, and weighed seven pounds and 15 ounces.

“We are overwhelmed with happiness and joy at this very special moment,” the new fathers told the magazine. “Zachary is healthy and doing really well, and we are very proud and happy parents.”

It’s been a long road for John and Furnish in their quest to be fathers; in 2009, they were denied the right to adopt an HIV-positive toddler from the Ukraine, due to John’s age and the country’s lack of recognition of civil unions rendering him single by their laws.

John said that he still planned to support the child and his brother financially, and now has a son of his own, too. And one with the name Levon, one of John’s many well-known songs.

It was a rare sighting indeed to see Elton John and husband David Furnish shop at Dolce & Gabbana yesterday. So rare in fact, it caused quite a stir and turned the normal shopper into an amateur paparazzo!

A Good Cause: World Aids Day

LPark — Tue, 02 Dec 2008 02:10:57 +0000

Our friends over at the Elton John Foundation sent us this press release and we thought we’d pass it along:

Today, in recognition of World AIDS Day, actress and Elton John AIDS Foundation (EJAF) supporter Penelope Cruz opened the Unbreakable Kiss Mistletoe Installation, sponsored by A Diamond Is Forever, in New York City’s Madison Square Park with a ribbon-cutting ceremony. For every couple who kisses under the mistletoe now through December 4, A Diamond is Forever will donate $5 to EJAF in honor of World AIDS Day. In addition, one person each day will be selected to win a piece of jewelry from A Diamond Is Forever.

The purpose of this “Kiss-In” is to raise money for EJAF’s grant-making initiatives in support of HIV prevention programs, efforts to eliminate stigma and discrimination associated with HIV/AIDS, and direct care and support services for people living with HIV/AIDS in communities across the Americas and the Caribbean. The Unbreakable Kiss Mistletoe Installation will be open December 1-4 daily from 2:00 PM to 8:00 PM.

“All of us at EJAF are deeply grateful to our dear friend Penelope Cruz for representing the Foundation at this important World AIDS Day observance and to A Diamond is Forever for choosing to support EJAF through this lovely and unique event,” said Founder and Chairman Sir Elton John.

Across the globe, over 33 million men, women, and children are living with HIV/AIDS, and every year 3 million more become infected. Over 56,000 of those infections occur right here in the United States, 34% in young people age 13-29. “Until we have a cure and a preventive vaccine, teaching people how to prevent HIV infection is one of the most important things we can do right now to bring an end to this terrible epidemic. That has been EJAF’s mission from day one,” Sir Elton added.

So, bring a loved one to Madison Square Park during this four-day event and share a kiss to support EJAF’s urgent work and to commemorate the 20th observance of World AIDS Day. For more information please visit

Sincerely,

Scott Campbell
Executive Director
Elton John AIDS Foundation

Elton Finds Nostalgia

LPark — Thu, 30 Oct 2008 11:06:37 +0000

We caught up with the legendary Elton John as he had lunch with some friends at the newly opened Luau Restaurant in Beverly Hills. Natives to Los Angeles might recall that Luau was once a famous eatery frequented by ’60s-era Tinseltown stars. Like its namesake, the new Luau is full of tiki gods, island themed drinks and dÃƒÂ©cor. The new restaurant is more of a tribute to the old, with a chic new style and reminders of the old. (The original Luau restaurant was a kitschy tiki room.) Either way, the buzz is out and everyone is glad to have this place resurrected. Even stars like Elton John made the trip to check it out!

Dinner Date For Some Famous Faces

LPark — Mon, 20 Oct 2008 12:55:10 +0000

Elton John and his husband David Furnish enjoyed a dinner at the Waverly Inn in New York City, New York. They were joined by their friends Jennifer Lopez, Marc Anthony, Roberto Cavalli, and Donatella Versace. The group dined together and we were able to get these EXCLUSIVE shots as they arrived and departed! When asked about Madonna’s divorce, Elton’s husband said the advice he would give her would be to stay out of the media. Good thinking! MadonnaÃ¢â‚¬â„¢s divorce is getting nasty!

Speaking of all things nasty, the food must not have settled well for Donatella as she left the group early and headed to her car.

The other duo, Marc and Jennifer looked lovely and happy as they smiled and held hands as they came and went.
