Whakarāpopototia te tuhinga:  Ko ngā kaihoahoa kākahu Itari a Dolce rāua ko Gabbana e kī ana e 'whakaute ana rātou ki te ao katoa' i muri i ā rātau kōrero tautohetohe mō ngā maimoatanga whakatipuranga i riri ai a Sir Elton John. I karanga te whetu pop ki te aukati i te waitohu rongonui i muri i te whakapae a te kaihoahoa a Domenico Dolce mo te whakatipu in-vitro (IVF), i puta ai te riri i runga i nga papaaho pāpori. Engari kua tohe a Dolce inaianei ko ana tirohanga he mea motuhake, he whakapono whaiaro i ahu mai i tana whakaaro mo te whanau Sicilian tuku iho. Panuku ki raro mō te ataata. He tautohetohe: Kua tiakina e te kaihoahoa a Domenico Dolce (matau) ana korero tautohetohe, me te kii kei te 'whakaute ia i te ao katoa'. I whakaahuahia ia me tana hoa pakihi a Stefano Gabbana (taha maui) Boycott: Sir Elton John (i whakaahuahia me tana tahu a David Furnish me a raatau tamariki), i korero ki a Dolce me Gabbana me te kii kaore ia e mau ki tetahi o a raatau kakahu i muri i a raatau korero. I roto i tētahi uiuinga ki CNN, ka tohe a Dolce kāore ia i te whakawa i te hunga i whiriwhiri i te tukanga, a ka mea: 'E whakapono ana ahau ki te whānau tuku iho. 'E kore e taea te whakarerekē i taku ahurea mō tētahi mea rerekē. Ko ahau... E whakaute ana ahau ki te ao katoa, ki te ahurea katoa.' I mea te kaihoahoa kākahu i mua: 'Kua whanau koe, ā, he papa, he whaea. I te iti rawa kia penei. Koinei te take e kore ai au e whakapono ki te mea e kiia nei e au he tamariki matū, he pēpi waihanga.' I puta mai he urupare riri mai i a John, e rua ana tamariki me tana tahu a David Furnish na roto i te IVF, nana nei i pupuhi: 'Me pehea koe ki te whakahua i aku tamariki ataahua hei "hangahanga". 'Ko to koutou whakaaro tawhito kei waho o te wā, rite tonu ki o koutou kāhua. Kāore au e mau tonu i te Dolce me Gabbana. #BoycottDolceGabbana.' Na tana riri i puta ai he pakanga pāpori pāpori, i te mea 66,000 nga tangata i uru atu ki tana karanga kia mutu te hoko kakahu mai i te waitohu papai. Engari i kii a Dolce e kore ia e kore e aukati i te kaitoi ka tapiritia: 'E aroha ana ahau ki te puoro a Elton John.' I kii ia i whakapono ia ka taea e raatau te whakamutu i te tautohetohe ka kii atu: 'Ka whakatauhia e te katoa nga mea katoa ma te korero... ka tiimata te korero, ko te raru...
I whakaahuatia e Domenico Dolce ngā pēpi IVF hei 'kōhungahunga matū' me te 'kōhungahunga waihanga' Ka kī mai kāore ia e whakawa, ka tāpiri mai: 'E whakaute ana ahau ki te ao katoa, ki te ahurea katoa' I karangatia e Sir Elton John kia whakakorea a Dolce & Gabbana i muri i ngā kōrero. Engari e kī ana a Dolce kāore ōna whakaaro kino ki te whetū pop rongonui.
