Don't expect to hear an Elton John-Madonna mash-up anytime soon. In the latest spat in their long-running feud, Elton John told an interviewer that the queen of pop's career is "over"... and that the iconic pop star kind of looks like a "stripper."

"She’s such a nightmare. Her career’s over...and she looks like a f***ing fairground stripper. She’s been so horrible to Gaga," he said in an interview that aired on Australia’s Channel 7 program Sunday Night.

John's pal Lady Gaga happens to be the godmother of his son Zachary with partner David Furnish. Now, it's true that Madonna hasn't exactly been supportive of Gaga -- even implying that she copied one of her tunes -- but we still think Elton John is being pretty harsh. And knowing Madonna, she'll relish the chance to fire back where it hurts. Do you think Elton John is right about Madge?

    Elton John is so right. Madonna is having to use her body to get her name in the media. She is supposed to be a singer not a stripper! It is such a shame she has to stoop that low to get a audience to hear her.

    don't you think the kids were sluts in the first place. Just a thought.

    I think the problem here is people like you regarding women as sluts in the first place. There is no male equivalent to this term when they behave in the same manner, so why is it ok for you to refer to women as sluts when they do? No one is forcing your kids to look up to these individuals and they arent here to be role models for your chilldren, that's your job, they are here to make music, party, and rock on.

    males are called womanizers, skirt-chasers, male whores, operators, gigolos, cads, debauchers... among other things. I agree that in some circles, men enjoy a double standard. But not with me. If this was about men, it would be equally scandalous and they would be equally guilty. Sin is sin, regardless of gender.

    you must not be a parent since you are so naive as to think that a parent can guard his or her children from all the filth in movies, commercials, magazine racks, songs etc...or that these "artists" don't influence young children. As for making music and "rocking on", if that was all they did....fine. But they make porno books, and wear meat dresses, and glamorize promiscuous sex....but are not there for their fans when they get pregnant, or diseases, or heartbreak.

    I'm sorry your standards make you feel like you need to defend these "artists".

    you sound angry....didn't mean to offend your role models. BTW, I have 5 incredible, awesome, beautiful kids. And I have worked very hard to keep those influences away from them. However, millions of parents don't or won't or aren't present to protect many young people and they grow up thinking these floozies, hussies, tramps, vamps, trollops, wenches, fallen women, harlots, call girls, tarts, ladies of the night etc......think their behavior is normal.

    Proud of me that I didn't use the "S" word?

    They're behavior is normal, prostitution is the worlds oldest and most rampant professsion, I feel sorry for your children whom you are teaching to look down on individuals with differnt lifestyles as if they are subhuman. Evolve already.

    If your entertainment role models are "elevated" by comparing them to those who sell their bodies for money, instead of devoting yourself completely to one partner out of love, then I'm very grateful my normal and your normal aren't the same.

    Also, my children know that ALL people are created out of love by God with incredible dignity, and that only God can judge their SOUL. But reason and a civilized society dictates that you CAN judge their ACTIONS.

    As for the world and the people in it, the world is full of beauty and awe and grandeur. And I have been blessed to meet so many truly incredible, selfless people, who of course like all of us, have our flaws. As for my kids, they will make the world better, and some day I hope will gain eternal life. As for evolving, I'm trying not to walk with my knuckles scraping the ground...but old habits are hard to break.

    She still has fans so no, her career is not over. He still has fans (less I think) so his isn't either. Both old rockers who really should retire.. She looks better though. Still, time to retire. Go enjoy your money !

    They're all morons, and Gaga can take care of herself. She hardly needs a daddy to defend her. Madonna is an attention-seeking, fight-causing idiot, though. My dislike of her has nothing to do with Lady Gaga.

    Who cares? Madonna has more talent and savy than most... has enough money to live comfortably.... and I am certain MANY fans. Elton John sure has a needlessly big mouth for someone with his own imperfections. I don't know why he has such a passion for negatives when his own life is supposedly doing so well. ??

    I assume so...I thought she retired in the 90s. Until you brought it up I was blissfully unaware of any so-called artistic activity. Please don't mention it again, because she's irrelevant and purely a spectacle without substance.

    You know, if she didn't waste that beautiful singing voice on mostly crappy songs and wasn't so obsessed with trying to spark controversy, she could've been well respected as a true singing icon.

    Girls! GIRLS! PLEASE!You're both supposed to be ladies and used to be friends,so can the catfight come to an end? So, this may be the end for Madonna,and she might have finally hit a brick wall,and can't re-invent herself back to relevance,as she's done many times before! But I'm not ready to count her out quite yet.

    This sounds like it's nothing more than a cat fight between two queens of pop. The only difference between them is Elton John has actual tallent and a long list of hits. Madonna's only tallent is that she somehow gets publicity .... oh, and she has real boobs. That's about it.

    No, Madonna has singing talent, she just preferred to waste it on bad songs and concentrate more on image rather than real talent.

    I think you have a good point. I stand corrected.

    But she does have boobs and I give her credit for that.
