Sir Elton John was one of the many stars who rejected an offer to perform, with a spokesperson emphatically confirming, “Elton will not be performing at Trump’s inauguration.”

Elton John attacks Putin over the gay matter
It is not a surprise for anybody that Russia has a very strict position regarding homosexuality. Not only the country’s policy outlawed homosexuality, but it seems like the public opinion on the matter is one of the most hostile in the world. In fact, Russia is one of the countries where the intolerance regarding gays actually raised during the last years; from 60% of the people pronouncing themselves against gay rights, in 2002, to 72% in 2013.
