Slackhurst Broadcasting 374 Posted August 28, 2023 Cilla died after having a fall and hitting her head on the wall. I suppose Elton's wig would cushion him. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No great fan but a mate recommended I read his autobiography and I'm glad I did. His mum comes in for some scathing treatment there! It's also dripping delicious gossip and inside tracks on otherwise misunderstood stories. A particular corker concerning a famous photograph of Princess Diana and David Furnish consoling a distraught Elton John at Gianni Versace's funeral. The press presented this as a tender moment when Diana wrapped an arm round him. According to the autobiography she was reaching for a mint David Furnish was passing behind Elton John and far from consoling him she actually said "I could murder a Polo." Particularly pointed when you consider how Versace met his end! 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

YoungWillz 21,050 Posted October 11 Doesn't know how much time he has left: https://www.mirror.co.uk/3am/celebrity-news/elton-john-77-admits-death-33875480 If only he could be a little more firm on the details, because we don't know either. But he's a perennial in-patient these days. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
livingbygrace 346 Posted October 11 He definitely seems to be ill, and I feel for him. I know how it can be to be chronically ill, and how everyday can be a struggle especially when you have kids you are trying to raise and give them a good childhood and a good foundation for life. I do not however think I am going to be putting him in my Shadow list this coming year. There are others that are in line so to speak that I am hoping to be putting in my list. Might consider him an option for other pools though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rod Stewart is 80 in January. Elton John is 78 in March. Life expectancy for a man in the UK is... 78. They have made old bones. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
