Have Madonna And Elton John Buried The Hatchet?‎

Only last month Elton took his latest pop, comparing Madge to a fairground stripper.  So when the pair bumped into each other at a posh restaurant in the south of France last week, fellow diners couldn’t be blamed for hiding behind their breadsticks.

But the stars have finally managed to put their public battle behind – as they kissed and made up in front of everyone eating at La Petite Maison in Nice. A source said: “Elton goes to the Petite Maison for dinner fairly regularly as it’s near his villa in Mont Boron.  

“But Madonna was also there for a bite before her show, which was down the road and didn’t start until around 10.30pm.  “Just as he was leaving, he went over to talk to Madonna and they were laughing and smiling.”

The insider added: “They even hugged each other.”  Perhaps that snowball does have a chance in hell.

Madonna Dedicates Song to Elton John

Based on what she reportedly said onstage at her concert in Nice, France on Tuesday night, it looks like Madonna doesn’t hold a grudge against Elton John for those critical things he said about her on Australian TV not long ago.

According to the Twitter feed of the local paper, Nice Matin, Madonna performed her song “Masterpiece” at the show and dedicated it to Elton, saying he’s a “big fan” of hers. Then she added, “I forgive him.”

The choice of “Masterpiece” as the dedication song, though, may have been a backhanded tribute. You may recall that it’s the song that won her a Golden Globe earlier this year, beating out a song of Elton’s in the process. Prior to the show, Elton declared that she didn’t have a chance of winning; afterwards, his partner David Furnish publicly trashed Madonna and complained about the win.

Elton John: Madonna looks like a stripper...

SIR Elton John has reignited his long-standing feud with Madonna by branding her a “f****** fairground stripper” whose “career is over”.

The sharp-tongued Rocket Man blasted his chart foe on Australian TV and is furious that she keeps laying into his pal Lady Gaga – who is godmother to his son Zachary.  Madonna has repeatedly taken swipes at her young pop rival over her hit Born This Way, which has often been compared to the singer’s 1989 single Express Yourself.

"Make sure you lip-synch good"

The claws are out again as Elton John offers adversary Madonna some 'advice' for Super Bowl gig

Sir Elton John has reopened his feud with Madonna by suggesting she will not be singing live during the half time show at America's biggest sporting event.

After his recent spat with the Queen on Pop at a film awards ceremony, the 64-year-old star was asked what advice he had for the her when she appears during the half time show at this Sunday’s Super Bowl.  'Make sure you lip-synch good' he said mischievously.  The comment to Madonna, a singer who prides herself on performing  live, is likely to drive a even bigger wedge between two of the music industry's most successful stars.  Being chosen to sing at the Super Bowl, which attracts a worldwide audience of over one billion, is considered a highlight of any artists  career.

Elton's Husband Apologizes To Madonna (On Facebook)

It looks like this feud has been squashed thankfully.

Sir Elton's hubby, David Furnish, has issued an olive branch to Madonna. David posted an apology on his Facebook page to the Queen of Pop.

He writes:

"Wow! What a tempest in a teapot. My comments regarding The Golden Globes have been blown way out of proportion. My passion for our film "Gnomeo & Juliet" and belief in Elton's song really got my emotional juices going.

But I must say for the record that I do believe Madonna is a great artist, and that Elton and I wish her all the best for next week's premiere of the film "W.E."

Elton John's Hubby Is STILL Talking Shiz About Madonna!

Can we PLEASE move on from this, already!

To recap - yesterday, Elton John dissed Madonna on the Golden Globes red carpet by saying that she didn't have a "f***ing chance" of winningBest Song…but as it turns out she DID win!  Then, Elton's hubby David Furnish went off on Madge on Facebook, saying the following:  "Madonna. Best song???? F**k off!!! Madonna winning Best Original Song truly shows how these awards have nothing to do with merit. Her acceptance speech was embarrassing in it's narcissism. And her critisism of Gaga shows how desperate she really is"!  Now, David has opened up further about his disdain regarding Madge's win. Here's what he had to say about it:

"I think it was a fluke…when this happens you have to question the integrity of the awards. Did Madonna get the Golden Globe because she attended the awards and agreed to be a presenter?"

"Can you sing Madonna’s song? Can you hum it? It’s a song nobody has heard, from a film few have seen. The award should have gone to Mary J. Blige or Elton. I like Madonna’s music, but not her movies. She should stick to what she is good at."

We know U and Elton are bummed about Madonna's win, but seriously - it's time to let it go. This trash talking is NOT cool AT ALL.

Who do U side with? Team Madge or Team Elton & Hubby???

Elton John's Hubby SLAMS MADONNA on Facebook!

Elton John's husband David Furnish LASHED OUT at Madonna following her victory speech at the Golden Globes last night ... saying it was "embarrassing in it's narcissism."

Moments after Madge won the statue for Best Original Song, Furnish went to his Facebook page and WENT OFF ... writing, "Madonna. Best song???? F**k off!!!"

  For the record -- Elton was nominated in the same category and seemed pissed off in the crowd when Madonna's name was read.

But David continued on Facebook ... writing, "Madonna winning Best Original Song truly shows how these awards have nothing to do with merit. Her acceptance speech was embarrassing in it's narcissism. And her critisism of Gaga shows how desperate she really is."

Elton seemed particularly bitter towards Madonna BEFORE the awards ... telling one reporter on the red carpet he believed Madge had no "f**kin' chance" of emerging victorious.
