IT’S a little bit funny . . . just how many famous people Elton John has clashed with over his long career. The star hit the headlines earlier this week after finally burying the hatchet with Madonna, more than two decades after he slammed her for lip-syncing and called her 007 anthem, Die Another Day, “the worst Bond song ever”. But Madge isn’t the only megastar that Elton’s locked horns with. Here’s a round-up of his biggest beef thus far.
