RonJonSurfer Posted June 30, 2005 Report Share Posted June 30, 2005 Elton John Sues British Newspapers Rock veteran Elton John is suing two British newspapers for libel over allegations the publications made about his behavior at a fundraiser for the singer's Elton John Aids Foundation. The allegations originally appeared in the Daily Mail newspaper on Friday and The Sunday Times is being sued for repeating the same claims the following day. A spokesperson for the star describes the allegations as a "ludicrous story" and "entirely false" - and has warned other publications they will be sued if they publish details of the claims. The Daily Mail decided to print the story despite being told the allegations were "completely untrue" by Elton's representative. The entertainer is adamant the story - concerning his annual White Tie And Tiara Ball held in Windsor, England - has tarnished his reputation and the image of his charity.
