Elton John may be 62, but he’s alive and kickin’ and still doing good out in the world. What a man, what a man, what a mighty good man. And sure he may be getting up there in age, but he just may want to be a papa very soon.
While doing a charity stint for his Aids foundation in the Ukraine, Mr. John met a little 14-month-old boy named Lev who apparently grabbed a hold of his heart…and tightly.
At a press conference later, Elton and his man David Furnish were asked whether they had thought of adopting any kiddos. His response?
He said, “David and I have always talked about adoption, David always wanted to adopt a child and I always said ‘no’ because I am 62 and I think because of the traveling I do and the life I have, maybe it wouldn’t be fair for the child. But having seen Lev today, I would love to adopt him. I don’t know how we do that but he has stolen my heart. And he has stolen David’s heart and it would be wonderful if we can have a home. I’ve changed my mind today.
He added, “Last week I lost one of my best friends, my keyboard player died of a heart attack at 52. It broke my heart because he was such a genius and so young and has two wonderful children. What better opportunity to replace someone I lost than to replace him with someone I can give a future to. I don’t know what the procedure is to adopt a boy from the Ukraine. I don’t think that I can because England has a treaty with the Ukraine but David is Canadian so we might be able to work through something like that.”
We say, go for it!
