As S&H has been keeping secret for awhile and waiting for a confirmation, Etisalat was supposed to bring Mr. Elton John on the 18th of May to perform at a private concert here in Egypt for all their VIPs!


Well as it turns out, Mr. John will not be belting a note in our homeland as authorities do not want him here due to his homo"sexuality!"


All this anger towards the out and about singer came after an interview he had last February, in which he claimed that Jesus was a gay man, and he stated "try being a gay woman in the Middle East - you're as good as dead!"


So the Egyptian Music union's response was, "how do we allow a gay, who wants to ban religions, claimed that the prophet Eissa (Jesus) was gay and calls for Middle Eastern countries to allow gays to have sexual freedom (come and sing in our country)?" 

Though we don't necisarrily agree with Elton's claims, we don't see how his sexuality has anything to do with him performing, especially if uber religious Etisalat was ok with it in the first place!
