(antiMusic) "My gift is my porn and this one's for you". Looks like Elton has some explaining to do if a British report is true. It appears that he donated what has been described as a child porn photo to an art exhibit and now faces investigation over the matter. Maybe he was writting a book with Pete Townshend and need the photo for research? Contact Music has the report: Sir Elton John is facing an investigation from child porn police after a photo he donated to an art exhibition was seized by cops. Art gallery bosses at The Baltic Centre For Contemporary Art in Gateshead, England have withdrawn the explicit photo a day before the exhibition is due to start on Wednesday (26Sep07), reports British newspaper The Sun.
The photo, taken by famed photographer Nan Godin, features two young girls posing provocatively - and is one of 4,000 pictures used in the Sir Elton John Photographic Collection. The Rocket Man hitmaker is said to admire the "directness, truth and poignancy" of Godin's work. - more on this story
