Elton John and Robbie Williams are in the midst of a spat after Robbie pulled a little prank on Elton when the two happened to be in Australia at the same time:

John was furious when he learned Williams - who has been staying in the same Sydney hotel as John - had been giving out the Rocket Man hitmaker's suite details. John's partner David Furnish tells British magazine The Spectator that John decided to get his own back by boasting about Williams' former band Take That's recent chart success

Furnish says, "I got a phonecall from a slightly irked Elton still Down Under. (He was furious) at Robbie's irresponsible delinquency." John wrote a note and slipped it under Williams' hotel room door: "Dear Robbie, Take That... No 1 single and album. Great result. Love Elton."

And you thought Sylvestor Stallone was cruel for starting the Richard Gere gerbil rumor? Let me tell you something, you've never dealt with Elton John, or as I call him: vindictiveness personified. I mean, he actually slid a note under Robbie William's door reminding him of his former band's success. Easy there Elton, there's crossing the line and there's what you did. By the way Robbie, I don't think starting a gerbil rumor about Elton John will have quite the same effect as it did on Richard Gere. Ya' know, because of the whole 'hating vagina' thing.
