Elton John Picks Lady GaGa as Godmother to His Second Son

The 'Candle in the Wind ' singer says GaGa is
chosen as the godmother of his second son
Elijah because 'she's been a great godmother'
to his first son Zachary.
Elton John
and
partner
David
Furnish
apparently
are so
impressed
with what
Lady GaGa
has done
to their
first son
Zachary
that they ask her to be the godmother of their
second son Elijah. John, who welcomed Elijah
in January via surrogate mother, told Extra on
Thursday, April 25, that GaGa was a great
person to his children.
"She's a great role model, she's young, [and]
she's been a great godmother to Zachary,"
John said. Speaking of the "Born This Way"
singer, he added, "We're all bonkers in this
business, but we're human beings at the same
time."
John recalled the moment when GaGa was
going to bathe Zachary in Las Vegas. He said,
"She was already dressed to go to the show,
and she was sitting there and she bathed him,
and she was like dressed like Audrey Hepburn...
and she fed him."
John and Furnish also told Extra that having
children changed their view about life. "You
learn so much about yourself and about life by
seeing children," Furnish said. John added, "I
love getting up in the morning and having
breakfast with Zachary. Everything I thought I
would find annoying about having children,
like screaming and shouting and tantrums... I
don't find any of it annoying. I find it all
enchanting."
"There's a real simple person under there who
loves her parents," John told Barbara Walters
about GaGa in 2011. Furnish added that their
son would learn a lot from the "Paparazzi"
singer, saying, "Zachary's going to inherit an
incredible musical legacy from his father one
day, and she will be a good person to guide
him through the ins and outs of the music
business, 'cause she sure knows everything
about the business now."
