What led Elton John to showcase his newborn son in OK! magazine?
This magazine is known for C-listers vying for a slice of the spotlight alongside a hefty paycheck.
So, what motivates one of the world’s wealthiest individuals and a globally renowned pop star to display a child (whose privacy you’d assume he’d want to shield) in a tabloid like OK!?
Why would he choose to be featured next to figures like Jordan and other opportunists, sharing what he describes as one of the most joyful moments of his life?
And why put a child, whose mere presence will attract international media attention for countless years, in the public eye so soon? It doesn’t matter to me that he plans to donate the money from this interview to charity. Elton John is wealthy enough to contribute millions to charity without the need to commercialize himself or his child through magazines.
This was an inappropriate decision, and if he is unaware of that, I question his readiness to be a father.
