A catfight has broken out between George Michael and Elton John.

The diva imbroglio started when the Rocket Man blasted Michael’s new album saying, “George is in a strange place. There seems to be a deep-rooted unhappiness in his life and it shows on the album. All I would say to George is: you should get out more.”

The former Wham man fired back, saying that John was paying too much attention to the “gay grapevine.”

In an open letter in U.K.’s Heat magazine, Michael wrote, “Sadly, I was always aware that Elton’s circle of friends was the busiest rumour mill in town, and that respect for my privacy was not exactly guaranteed. And to this day, most of what Elton thinks he knows about my life is pretty much limited to the gossip he hears on what you would call the ‘gay grapevine.’ Other than that, he knows that I don’t like to tour, that I smoke too much pot, and that my albums still have a habit of going to number one. In other words, he knows as much as most of my fans do.”
