The Conservative MP had hoped Sir Elton John would support his candidacy, but the veteran popstar chose to throw a party for rival Liberal Democrat candidate Brian Paddick instead.
Johnson told LBC: "I'm very disappointed by this, by the way, because Elton and David Furnish send us a Christmas card every year.
"I couldn't believe it when he suddenly announced that he was backing ex-commander Paddick. I couldn't believe it. Anyway, there you go. Elton and I are going to have to see what's going on."
When asked which other celebrities he would like support from, he said: "I'd love to get Amy Winehouse. I think she'd be fantastic."
He proposed that the troubled star should re-record her hit single 'Rehab' to poke fun at the current London Mayor Ken Livingstone.
The MP suggested the lyrics: "Ken Livingstone - no, no, no."
