Elton John Talks Drug Addiction

More from Sir Elton –

October 13th, 2019 – In particular, John opened up about the important role his drug addiction and eventual sobriety have played in his life’s story. Sir Elton explained that when he originally got into cocaine in 1974, his first taste made him throw up. However, he quickly went back for more—”Because I wanted to join in so much and be part of the gang, I went back and asked for another line,” he said. “Isn’t that crazy? But that’s what being a drug addict is, crazy. I so wish I’d never taken a drug. But in the end, unless I’d have got sober, I wouldn’t be the person I am today.” You can watch the entire Elton John CBS This Morning segment below:
