Civil unions saved my life tonight

Fc078-1124183721.HmediumTaking advantage of Britain’s new civil union law, chubby chaser David Furnish has agreed to make an honest man out of Elton John. The couple will be pronounced man and bottom on December 21 in a small ceremony to be attended only by both parties’ parents. (Which - hold on - Elton John’s parents are still alive? That should add a touch of, um, Victorian class to the proceedings.)

Despite the intimacy of the occasion, John says he’ll manage to spend 672,939 pounds on flowers. After the ceremony, a medium channeling the spirit of Princess Diana will give a toast.

We, of course, wish the best for Elton and David, and are glad that a high-profile male couple is publicly taking the plunge. We just hope that Elton stays rich and David stays pretty. Not that we’re promoting stereotypes based on other famous queer couples. But, you know, photos don’t lie.
