Elton John on What He Would Have Named His Ben & Jerry's Flavor
Elton John talks to GQ about Broadway musicals, his musical career, his alleged feud with singer Lily Allen (That was just such nonsense."), collaborating with the Killers, and the Ben & Jerry's ice cream flavor, Goodbye Yellow Brickle Road, which benefited his AIDS foundation on the occasion of his first-ever concert (above) in Vermont.
Said Elton of the cool collaboration: "We were trying to find someone who came from Vermont that was famous, and Ben and Jerry came top of the list. They were so helpful and so great, and it was a delicious ice cream. I wanted to call it Fudge Packer.…"

Gee, no mention of neo nazi Prop 8, and similar anti marriage equality initiatives in Florida and Arizona? BIG surprise. Fudge pack this, Elton! You've abandoned gay rights when your brothers & sisters need it most. You and your partner would not have been able to form a legal union in England had it not been for the movement there inspired by the American gay rights movement.
Goodbye yellow prick toad!

Got to admit that it made me laugh. He's got way more dollars than sense though.

That's oddly original from the Rocket Man. Either way, I'm pissed they don't sell it nationwide (probably fearing some Family Council style boycott, ugh).

He should have called it "Fat, Gristle, and Other Pieces of Old Man"
