Elton John may have seemed like the last person expected to perform at Rush Limbaugh’s wedding over the weekend.

Limbaugh, for instance, told Zev Chafetz, author of the Limbaugh biography “Army of One,” that he supports civil unions for gay couples instead of marriage — a point on which Limbaugh and the openly gay John agree.

Then there’s the one thing Limbaugh and John can certainly find common ground on: the benefits of capitalism. According to a Fox News affiliate, John was paid $1 million for his services.
