Variety Shows Are the "In" Thing!

Filed under: Canadialand > TV News > Anglophilia > Music Minute > Elton John > Bill Clinton

The Osbournes aren't the only ones with a new variety show!

Rocker Elvis Costello has his own, too!

The show, called Spectacle: Elvis Costello with…, has taped four one-hour episodes of a planned 13-program run.

Elton John, Tony Bennett, Lou Reed and former U.S. President Bill Clinton are among the heavy hitters appearing on Elvis' new gig.

Fab!

Are we going to see Bubba rock the sax like the old days?

The series is being co-produced by CTV in Canada and Channel 4 in the U.K., as well as the Sundance Channel in the US of A.

The broadcast schedule has yet to be announced.

Is that Bill Clinton's wax likeness from Madame Tussaud's? Why is he or it wearing a party hat? I just don't think that could possibly be the real Bill Clinton. He looks robotronic, or something.

SIR ELTON AIN'T YOUR FATHER PEREZ!! If he's your father then Renata Blauel is your mother, because she was his beard-wife, and she's the only cunt he ever got near, and even that is doubtful, so that leaves that mother of yours totally out of the picture. YOU DON'T EVEN KNOW WHO YOUR FUCKING FATHER IS, YOU BASTARD, BUT IT AIN'T SIR ELTON. He'd as soon spit on you than get near you again. Asshole

WOW! Such cool news. I love Elvis Costello and can't wait to see it. Variety shows were to the 70s what reality TV has been to the last bit of the 90s through today. I prefer variety shows.

Clinton is a big disgrace! A bad influence and a lame excuse for a president and husband. Fuck him. Fuck you for promoting his sorry ass.

I do not think that Sir Elton John would even like that you call him Perez Sr you are a no talent gay guy that all you do is have a gossip site a 12 year old could d o better at , There are classy gossip columnist like Rhona Barret , Nigel Dempster Hedda Hopper Louella Parsons Michael Musto you suck compared to these people they didn't make up and say vicious shit about people it shows how desperate you are. Your site is that of 12 year olds gossiping in middle school you are a joke in hollywood .
