3. Madonna vs. Elton John
Not the quietest people in the room, Elton John and Madonna have been known to have had a number of spats with a number of other celebrities, with it only a matter of time before they engaged in one of their own. Feuding for a number of years, the two divas have often traded insults back and forth, rarely biting the bullet when it comes to revealing their true feelings. Starting in 2004 during the ‘Q’ Music Awards, John instigated the bitter brawl by jokingly saying, “Madonna, best live act? F****off. Since when has lip-syncing been live?” Ouch. Leaving her team to do the talking, a spokeswoman for Madonna retaliated by saying, “Madonna does not lip-sync nor does she spend her time trashing other artists. She sang every note of her Re-Invention tour live and is not ashamed that she was well paid for her hard work”. Trading insults back and forth over the next few years, John recently revealed he had ended the ten-year feud by somewhat apologizing to her, claiming “what [he] said should never have appeared in public”. Is that an apology?
