Elton John recently referred to Madonna as a “f–king fairground stripper,” adding that the Material Girl’s career was as good as over and labeling her a certain C-word. Those comments followed John’s husband, David Furnish, also having some harsh words for the legendary artist. So, how has the notoriously combative Madonna responded? With an attempt at reconciliation. During a concert in France last night, the singer dedicated the song “Masterpiece” to John, saying: “I know he’s a big fan of it. And I know he’s a big fan of mine. And you know? I forgive him. Gotta start somewhere.” Watch for yourself now:

3 Of Kanye West’s Albums On Rolling Stone’s “500 Greatest Albums Of All Time” List Can you guess which ones?? Three Kanye West albums have made it on to the latest edition of Rolling Stone magazine’s authoritative “500 Greatest Albums of All Time” list, placing him among the greats of popular music. The new ranking, which combines a 2003 list (updated in 2005) with a later survey of the 2000s, saw two Radiohead records join the elite club, while long-established names including Bruce Springsteen and Bob Dylan also had albums added. Rolling Stone has published the list, along with details of the albums and several new recording histories based on first-hand accounts, in “bookazine” format available for $11.99 on newsstands between Friday and July 25 in the United States. The big beneficiary was U.S. hip-hop star West, who saw 2005 album “Late Registration,” “The College Dropout” (2004) and “My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy” (2010) make it to the top 500. In total, 30 albums were added and 30 taken away, with the casualties including several artists well-represented on the list already and whose “lesser” albums have now been dropped. The highest entry among recent albums was West’s “Late Registration” at No. 118. Asked whether the relatively low position of recently released albums reflected a barren period for great rock and pop, Hoard replied: “My personal opinion is no. Music is as inspirational as it’s ever been. “Things get clearer as the years pass. If you held this poll in 10 years, say, Arcade Fire could be a lot higher and the same could be said of Kanye West. Reputation and time definitely help an album, especially with pollers like ours.” Radiohead features twice — for “Amnesiac” (2001) and “In Rainbows” (2007), Jay-Z is added for “The Black Album” (2003), Lil Wayne makes it with “Tha Carter III” (2008) and the late Amy Winehouse for “Back to Black.” Among those dropping out to make way for the additions were The Beach Boys (“Sunflower”), David Bowie (“Changesone”), Elton John (“Elton John”) and Madonna (“Music”).

Elton John’s husband David Furnish is PISSED that “Masterpiece” singer Madonna was among 2012’s Golden Globe Award winners with the Best Original Song. Furnish called Madonna’s acceptance speech “embarrassing in its narcissism.” Just moments after she won the statue, Furnish went to his Facebook page and WENT OFF on the Material Girl, writing, “Madonna. Best song???? F**k off!!!” Madonna Golden Globe Acceptance Speech Elton John, who was nominated for a song from Gnomeo & Juliet , did not look happy when Madonna’s name was announced, but he has not commented. Furnish, however, did not hold back in letting Madonna, who won for a song from W.E. , have it, referencing her recent quasi-feud with another singer. “Madonna winning Best Original Song truly shows these awards have nothing to do with merit,” he said. “Her acceptance speech was embarrassing in it’s narcissism. And her criticism of Gaga shows how desperate she really is.” In related news, Madonna’s cleavage was off the hook last night.
