Dolce & Gabbana Respond to Backlash Over "Synthetic" Babies Remarks Condemned by Elton John

Top designers, Dolce & Gabbana say they did not mean to judge other people's choices when they criticized same-sex parenting and the method of conceiving children via artificial insemination, which sparked controversy on Sunday and a scathing response by Elton John.

The singer-songwriter, who shares two sons born to asurrogate with husband David Furnish, had said, "Your archaic thinking is out of step with the times, just like your fashions." John's remarks included a call to boycott the luxury designer label. 

Dolce said in a statement to E! that while his own family was "traditional", that does not "imply that I don't "understand different ones."

"I was talking about my personal view, without judging other people's choices and decisions," he added. "I'm Sicilian and I grew up in a traditional family, made up of a mother, a father and children. I am very well aware of the fact that there are other types of families and they are as legitimate as the one I've known...But in my personal experience, family had a different configuration. That is the place where I learnt the values of love and family."

"it was never our intention to judge other people's choices. We do believe in freedom and love. We firmly believe in democracy and the fundamental principle of freedom of expression that upholds it," he added

Court Remove Ibinabo Fiberesima As AGN National President

It’s so early in the new working week but Ibinabo Fiberesima now has a legal issue to deal with. A Federal High Court has voided the election of the former beauty queen and actress as thePresident of the Actors’ Guild of Nigeria (AGN).

A ruling by Justice James Tsoho this morning, March 16, 2015, said the election that ushered the 42-year old into office was conducted against a standing court order, in a suit filed by an actor identified as St. Maradona Mikevine. Mikevine served as the National Treasurer in the factional exco led by Emeka Ike as AGN president and had filed the suit to contest Ibinabo’s election as AGN president.

Court filings indicate that Mikevine approached the court praying for the nullification of the election, saying the same was conducted in the face of a subsisting court order restraining the conduct of the AGN election. The said subsisting court order itself had been the product of another suit filed by Emeka Ike since July 25, 2013.

Nigerian Witches and Wizards Association Endorses President Jonathan

As the 2015 presidential elections is drawing close, the Witches and Wizards Association of Nigeria(Witzan) has chosen its candidate for the forthcoming polls. 

This was revealed during the weekend by the association’s national coordinator, Dr Okhue Iboi, the Nigerian Watch reports.

According to him, Witzan is backing President Jonathan as its favoured candidate in the forthcoming presidential elections.

He predicted that President Jonathan will win, revealing that the association had warned APC presidential candidate General Muhammadu Buhari not to run against the president.

Dr Iboi recalled that they had similarly warned former vice president Atiku Abubakar four years ago not to contest the election but he disobeyed them and went on to lose.

“I am not supporting any politician but I warned former vice president Atiku Abubakar not to contest against President Goodluck Jonathan four years ago, that he would be defeated and that the action won’t make him return to power again. Not only him, I also warned General Ibrahim Babangida not to attempt it too, so I hope they know better now. We just held a meeting of witches in Kogi State where it was revealed to me that Jonathan would win the presidential election. He has the support of all witches to continue in office,” Dr Ibio said.

 Dr Ibio, however, predicted that after President Jonathan will be announced the winner of the election violence will erupt, and that the tension that will embrace the country will only subside with prayers from Nigerians because it is a nation of prayer warriors.

He also predicted that after President Jonathan’s second term, power will return to the north, and the identity of the candidate that will succeed Jonathan will be made known by 2017.

Boycott D&G, Elton John Tells Fans After Designers Label His IVF Children ‘Synthetic

Elton John pictured with his husband and their kids

“How dare you refer to my beautiful children as ‘synthetic,'” The furious Grammy award winning singer wrote  on his Instagram account Saturday. 

“And shame on you for wagging your judgemental little fingers at IVF — a miracle that has allowed legions of loving people, both straight and gay, to fulfill  their dream of having children. Your archaic thinking is out of step with the times, just like your fashions. I shall never wear Dolce and Gabbana ever again. #BoycottDolceGabbana”

 His comments came after Mr Dolce told Italian magazine Panorama that procreation ‘should be an act of love’, adding: ‘You are born and you have a father and mother. At least it should be like that. That’s why I’m not convinced by what I call chemical children, synthetic babies.

‘They are wombs for hire, semen chosen from a catalogue. And then you have to explain to these children who their mother is.’

On if he wanted to be a father, Dolce said: ‘I am gay. I cannot have a child. I don’t believe that you can have everything in life.’ Mr Gabbana added: ‘The family is not a fad. It is a supernatural sense of belonging.’

Along with his husband David Furnish, the gay musician, Elton John is raising two sons, Zachary and Elijah who are four and two years old respectively.

Fellow celebrity father Perez Hilton, who is raising a son of his own, announced he was joining the boycott on Twitter Sunday morning. Other celeb gay parents like Ricky Martin, Alec Mapa and Ryan Murphy et al also on Twitter signified their solidarity with Elton John’s boycott of the designer’s products.
