Elton John ‘You learn to pass the message on’

ONE DRUNK TO ANOTHER –

Dec. 3, 2021 – Elton John has explained why he feels compelled to try and help fellow musicians struggling with drugs and alcohol abuse. 

Appearing on The Jonathan Ross Show, which airs tomorrow night (Friday 4 December) on ITV, the musician said he became emotional when reflecting on Rocketman, the 2019 film that includes depictions of his own struggles with addiction. 

“I had a lot of support when I was ill and [in] rehab,” he said. “You support your friends through thick and thin. I had a lot of support when I went through the thin end of the wedge and I never forget that.”
