Looks like the feud between Elton John and Madonna may be over. Madonna dedicated the song "Masterpiece" to Elton during the final show of the European leg of her MDNA Tour. The feud between the two divas really heated up when Madge beat out Elton for Best Original Song at the Golden Globes. Since then, Elton has been lashing out at Madonna, calling her a "fairground stripper." Now we wait and see if Elton returns the favor. Maybe Elton will dedicate "The Bitch is Back" to Madonna.

The country's Press Complaints Commission said it had received 850 complaints about the photos, but none from St. James' Palace. The paper ran the photos with the headline: "Heir It Is."

He also made threats against Texas state troopers who responded to a 911 call from a passerby. These details bring up all sorts of questions. Was he naked when he got in the car? Did he take his clothes off after the assumed car crash? Why does he drive a '98 Trans Am? Hopefully some of these questions will be answered in the coming weeks.
