Everyone enjoys a good prank once in a while, but in this case, it comes off as kind of mean. Sir Elton John was recently called by pranksters Vovan & Lexus who claimed to be The Russian president and his press secretary.

They suggesting that Vladimir Putin wants to discuss LGBT rights in Russia. And Elton fell for it.

Aren’t prank calls supposed to be entertaining and not political? This one is kind of sad. As Elton appears to try to inform, enlighten and make the world a better place, Putin's mind just can't be changed...go figure.
