John Attacks Mount St Helens |
|
The
increasingly outspoken pop legend Elton John, 57, criticised Mount St
Helens last night, calling the volcano "a big fat drama queen just looking
for attention".
The
pop superstar claimed that the becoming more active volcano "couldn't
blow the skin off a rice pudding".
Elton
John, 5ft 6in, said the cloud of smoke coming out of the top of the volcano reminded
him of his "pipe smoking aunt
and not like a geological fault at all".
When
told that volcano experts had downgraded the immediate risk of an eruption, Elton
John, 17 decibels, laughed with derision, and said it was "typical".
