Elton John has some advice for Madonna concerning this Sunday's Super Bowl halftime show: "Make sure you lip-sync good." Yes, the Rocket Man chose that pearl of wisdom when asked by 'Good Morning America' host Chris Connelly if he had any insight for Madge.

"I've never seen a decent one -- never ever," he told Connelly Jan. 30. "Of course you have to play live, but I don't think you can. In all fairness to everyone who's done one before, you may be able to sing live but it's really hard to play live. Actually, to be honest with you I saw the Stones and I saw Prince and I thought they were pretty good."

John -- dressed in a huge robe during the interview -- is appearing in a Pepsi advertisement along with 'X Factor' winner Melanie Amaro which will air during the Super Bowl. In the ad, John portrays a king who decides whether or not he likes the talent before him.
