Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Elton John and Madonna. They've been mad at each other
for like forty years, but their friends again. We'll tell
you about that in a second. Real quick. I want
to shout out the melt Shop. Yes, they brought some
food up here.

Speaker 2 (00:10):
They're wonderful.

Speaker 1 (00:11):
You know Saturday is grilled Cheese Day.

Speaker 2 (00:14):
A day to celebrate.

Speaker 1 (00:15):
Well we're doing it today. Yes, they brought grilled cheese.
There's Tater Todds. There's a million people walking by our
studio that we never see because they don't come to
our wing of the building, but they're here grabbing free food.
So thank you melt Shop.

Speaker 2 (00:27):
Thank you melt Shop.

Speaker 1 (00:28):
Great, wonderful. Yes, all right, So what's up with Madonna
and Elton. I had no idea that they kind of
had a feud going.

Speaker 2 (00:33):
I don't know that they had a feud so much
as he had a dislike for Madonna that he stated
publicly like years ago. So Madonna posted yesterday on her Instagram.
So this is from her mouth, right right. She was
really hurt because she admired him for so so long,
and I guess back in the day he publicly stated

(00:53):
something about her talent and it wasn't very flattery.

Speaker 1 (00:56):
That we probably actually talked about on the air at
one point, like for Entertainment News, and we've aready forgot
about it, right, I had forgotten.

Speaker 2 (01:01):
But of course if you're Madonna, that hits hard. It's
coming from Elton John. No less. So when she saw
that he was a guest on Saturday Night Live this
past weekend, she said, I knew I had to go
get backstage and talk to him. And she said, as
soon as she got back there and he saw her,
the first words out of his mouth were forgive me. Wow,
And she said, the wall between us fell. Forgiveness is

(01:21):
a powerful tool. Within minutes, we were hugging, she said.
He said he had even written a song for her
to collaborate, so it's come full circle. And then there's
a picture of them hugging and very happy together. I'm
glad they're making peace, Elton John and Madonna, because they
are icons.

Speaker 1 (01:36):
And maybe they are laying the groundwork down for a
kind of nice collab that would be beautiful car here
first and then at the end of the year, who
knows we were playing in Elton John madonna'sance would love that.

Speaker 2 (01:45):
Also. Kristin Chenowith, whose beautiful Broadway movie star is now
do She's one of the spokespeople with a new partnership
with Laura Geller Beauty, which is a great beauty line.
Just trust me on this one, Coddy, love that trust you.
She is their one day Chief Mature Officer. So Kristin
Chenowith is saying, I'm happy where I am and I

(02:07):
own it. She's asked about getting older and she said
she doesn't want to think so much about aging. She said,
I just want to embrace it to empower women who
are aging, calling the term mature far better than being
seen as put out to pasture. She said she would
never go back in time. She's very, very happy where
she is, and she loves the makeup line Laura Galler Beauty.

(02:29):
So she is joining the brand's national Mature Women's Day
campaign all right to empower women doing big things. There
