Elton John's New Soft-Rocking Digs [Singer and His Spouse Movings To New "Digs"]

Elton John's New Soft-Rocking Digs By Sarah Firshein March 8, 2012

Elton John's low-slung, angular home was built in 1966 and is shaped roughly like a boomerang.

Hoping to have more room for their expanding family, Sir Elton John and his husband, David Furnish, are moving from their high-rise condo into low-slung digs in the swank, star-studded Trousdale Estates section of Beverly Hills.

Built in 1966, the gated property was most recently listed for $7.695 million and has a three-bedroom, 3.5-bathroom main house, a staff bedroom with its own bathroom, and a pool cabana with its own lounge, gym, and bath.

Inside the "soft contemporary," as the brokerbabble gushes, are low-key details such as white-oak flooring; the "essence of Ralph Lauren" feel is quite the opposite of John and Furnish's condo, which was spiffed up by celebrity decorator Martyn Lawrence-Bullard with bright, full-wall murals of Keith Haring artwork and other such eye-popping details.

Elton is a dude. He can’t have a “husband.” He can’t be a “wife.”

I guess that these days, he also cannot be a “slut.”

Expanding family? Whah, they eat a lot?

They have 3-ways?

I don’t get it.

This guy used 2 spend $100,000 per week on FLOWERS.

Stunning home! Excellent Modern architecture. Home design has certainly gone downhill since then!

Did Rush say that Elton John didn’t support homosexual marriage?

Apparently since then, the Gay Mafia got to Elton, and he changed his tune.

Elton has been trying to adopt a little boy for years. I think he has grown tired of paying for one to come to his house every weekend and figured it would be more convenient to own his own.

"Sir Elton John and his husband..."

Reading that gives me a reaction similar to when Stewie opened his eyes to discover he'd been nursing on Peter! I think I just threw up a little in my mouth.

Didn’t Elton and his boyfriend buy a baby several years back and put him in a separate house with three nurse maids?

"Burn Down The Mission"

You tell me there's an angel in your tree
Did he say he'd come to call on me
For things are getting desperate in our home
Living in the parish of the restless folks I know

Everybody now bring your family down to the riverside
Look to the east to see where the fat stock hide
Behind four walls of stone the rich man sleeps
It's time we put the flame torch to their keep

Burn down the mission
If we're gonna stay alive
Watch the black smoke fly to heaven
See the red flame light the sky

Burn down the mission
Burn it down to stay alive
It's our only chance of living
Take all you need to live inside

Deep in the woods the squirrels are out today
My wife cried when they came to take me away
But what more could I do just to keep her warm
Than burn burn burn burn down the mission walls

He attempted to adopt an African boy and the African government said no same-sex adoptions by same-sex sickos. He was denied and deeply offended—haha.
