Elton John becomes a Poppa


Elton is a Daddy, in a Father type of way:

The piano man and husband David Furnish have become parents to a 7-pound, 15-ounce baby boy born on Christmas Day. The news was first reported Monday night by USMagazine.com and confirmed to The Associated Press by John's Los Angeles-based publicist.

Zachary Jackson Levon Furnish-John was born in California via a surrogate, whose identity is being protected by the new parents.

Zachary is 62-year-old John's first child with the 48-year-old Furnish. The couple married in 2005.
In a joint statement, the new parents told USMagazine.com that "Zachary is healthy and doing well" and they are "overwhelmed with happiness and joy at this very special moment."
Congrats to the family.

It's always great to welcome a new life into the world but uhmm....if Elton is 64 he'll be lucky to see the child reach adulthood. If he lives he'll be 84 when the child turns 20. That bugs me for some reason.
