Sir Elton John's partner David Furnish wears a locket containing a piece of the singer's baby hair.

The 46-year-old TV producer - who entered into a civil partnership with the "Rocket Man" singer in December 2005 - admits he "feels protected" when he has the necklace round his neck.

Sir Elton John does not want to get married. The "Rocket Man" singer - who has a civil partnership with partner David Furnish - claims Proposition 8 was passed in California because the word "marriage" discouraged people from voting against it.

Proposition 8 bans same-sex couples from getting married.

Madonna's "Sticky and Sweet" touring crew are threatening to quit. Some of the 250 staff on the tour claim they are being treated like "second class citizens" after being given cheap hotel accommodation - while Madonna stayed in an $22,000-a-night castle after her recent show in Nice, France.

A source told Britain's Daily Mirror newspaper: "Everyone is absolutely furious with her and some of them want to walk out of the tour. They feel they are being treated like second-class citizens, despite all their hard work over the last few months."

David Furnish's perfect night in is to watch 'Sex and the City' and eat beans on toast with partner Sir Elton John.

The 45-year-old filmmaker says while he is known for his partying, he also loves having a quiet evening snuggled up with the 'Rocket Man' singer.
