Hey Nikita, Elton John just wants to play a concert.
The British singer is set to take the stage in the city of Krasnodar on July 14, but the leader of the local communist group wants to put a stop to it. The so-called Communists of Russia are protesting an upcoming concert for what they refer to as John's "homosexual lifestyle."
On Thursday, Mikhail Abramyan told RIA Novosti that John's concert outfits are "homosexual propaganda." Abramyan added that he wants the "Tiny Dancer" singer to don the traditional Cossack uniform of a "knee-length caftan, a fur hat and leather boots" instead.
