 Angelina Jolie can adopt a hundred orphan kids, but singer Elton John cannot. 

According to the Associated Press, Ukraine’s minister denied Elton and his male partner’s bid to adopt 1-year-old Ukrainian child. 

The reason? Elton is too old, and he is not in a traditional marriage with his male partner David Furnish.

The child they wanted to adopt is infected with the HIV AIDS virus living in a hospital.  

Although Elton and his partner married during a civil union ceremony in the United Kingdom, the Ukraine doesn’t recognize homosexual unions, so Elton’s request denied. 

Sadly, that poor HIV-infected boy will have to continue living in an orphanage because the decision-maker doesn’t want him living with two men. 

At least with Elton, the boy would be living in a big mansion instead of an orphanage.
