fp_3428679_ang_furnish_david_081709 OH SNAP — Has David Furnish always been this fit? Grabbing some St. Tropez sun with Elton John, Furnish shows what it takes to please the king. (Sir Elton, meanwhile, looks miserable.) (Photos: Fame)

    British people should stay out of the sun. LOL.

    @John:
    ..or paint themselves blue.

    Hey, watch it guys, I’m half Brit.

  • Chopsie

    Of course Sir Elton looks miserable! He’s a bloated bag whose husband is a helluva lot hotter than he is!

  • robert

    @Chopsie:

    Is that the kind of thing you say upfront to your friends who have partners who don’t fit your view of what a man should look like? We can’t all be picture perfect 24/7 smiling adonises, but then superficiality is not a nice quality either. How do any of us know what Elton was feeling? If he’d been smiling would we be having this discussion? Probably those who have nothing good to say would for the sake of it. Elton has done a lot for AIDS and other causes, but I guess that doesn’t count for anything. By the way, David is not his husband, but his partner.

    @robert:

    Sorry Robert, wasn’t meant as an insult.
    Just reminding everyone of Pictish tradition.

    Besides, David is Canadian.

  • robert

    @strumpetwindsock:

    Hi, I know you didn’t mean it that way, I did get the humor though. Yes, David is a Canadian. I wonder why they didn’t bother getting married in Canada, rather than form a civil partnership in the UK? Are such partnerships recognized in Canada? David seems very content with what he has.

  • strumpetwindsock

    @robert:

    No. In Canada there is only marriage. A straight couple who live together is automatically considered common law or “equivalent to married”, at least for tax purposes, but I don’t think they press that for us.

    There is no other legal status like “civil partnership”.

    I think Elton and David did that as a statement against the institution of marriage and all its inequities and contradictions (despite the fact that many of those contradictions have been done away with here).
    Fine by me… it’s their partnership and they should be free to define themselves however they wish.

  • strumpetwindsock

    @strumpetwindsock:

    But I would assume their partnership is recognized as “common law” in Canada. That’s how it is for straights, and to do otherwise would be in violation of the charter.

  • robert

    @strumpetwindsock:

    Thanks for clarifying that, interesting too. From what I know from a cousin in the UK who has a civil partnership, they are recognized only in Spain and France so far, not sure about other EU countries though but I doubt that will change since five of them already allow us to marry and more will follow, probably Denmark and possibly Iceland. Belgium from what I know doesn’t allow gay married couples to adopt thus far, civil partnerships in the UK do though.

    His nipples are tiny.

    Hey, is that Babydaddy in pic number 7?

  • schlukitz

    Tell me those aren’t studded leather cock-rings Furnish is wearing on his right wrist….

  • Woof

    Um the guy on the far left in pic 5..DEE-LICIOUS

  • M Shane

    No. 12 · schlukitz; yes, have they gone out of style? IFor emergencies. I’ll bet that they hire a whole entourage of hustlers , just to sweeten things up.

  • schlukitz

    @M Shane:

    LOL

  • JoeBlow

    EJ and David DO hire rentboys… By the dozen and more when EJ’s on tour. Just look at any of Elton’s front-row population and you’ll see no less than 10 good-looking, muscular young guys.

    As for EJ’s support of HIV research: Sure, he’s raised a lot of money, but has been withholding his own status for years from the general press.

  • Freeman

    It makes me really sad to hear Elton may be HIV positive.

    Is it possible for a gay couple to be together long term without hiring rent boys and having open relationships?

  • B Damion

    ….smells like cash to me. Jackpot!

  • judge

    after he goes for a shit
