Hollywood pals are almost as fun as Hollywood romances. Throw in some crazy costumes and color us thoroughly entertained.
Elton John and Lady Gaga met last January when they performed together at the Grammys and have since collaborated on a duet for "Gnomeo and Juliet." Now, he's spilling his guts about just how much he loves the unpredictable pop star (spoiler alert: it's a whole lot).
