We get it Elton, you just haven't come to the right parties!! Elton John - Matt Lucas and Kevin McGee Pantomime Themed Wedding Reception in London - Banqueting Hall in Whitehall - London, England © SOLARPIX.COM PhotorazziJohn loved the pantomime-themed post party after Lucas and Kevin McGee's gay nuptials, and praised fellow Brits for their love of dressing up.ContactMusic.com reported John as saying:"The great thing about British people is you say, 'Come as fancy dress' and they always do...Americans don't get it. British people really do rise to the occasion."I didn't recognize half the people (at the wedding) until they started talking - Paul O'Grady, Roger Taylor from Queen... I didn't know them from Adam." Attendees included John and his lover David Furnish, Courtney Love, Queen's Roger Taylor, Paul O'Grady, Neil Tennant from the Pet Shop Boys.Elton perhaps has never heard of the infamous American special effects make-up artist, Todd Master's annual Halloween party, where the costuming rivals anything seen on either side of the pond.
