Elton John is gay and the belly dancing girls are girls. Therefore, this piece was not intended for pornographic imagery and the message of the piece is more likely commentary or purely non-sexual aesthetic.
By assessing this piece as pornographic, the assessors are either claiming that Elton John is a closet pedophile (a claim which desires more solid proof than a assessment of a piece of art) or are insinuating that intention and message of a piece are irrelevant to its assessment which undermines all conceptual art.
