Elton John has cancelled all of his upcoming concerts in Las Vegas after contracting a rare and “potentially deadly” infection while touring in South America. A representative for John said Monday that the 70-year-old “Rocket Man” Grammy-winner would no longer be able to honor the April and May dates of his Las Vegas residency, “The Million Dollar Piano,” due to an extended stay in a hospital recovering from the rare illness.
“During a recent, successful tour of South America, Elton contracted a harmful and unusual bacterial infection,” the singer’s representative said in a statement obtained by People magazine. “During his return flight home from Santiago, Chile, he became violently ill. Upon returning to the U.K., Elton’s doctors admitted him to hospital, where he underwent immediate treatment to remove the infection.”
“After spending two nights in intensive care followed by an extended stay in hospital, Elton was released from hospital on Saturday, April 22 and is now comfortably resting at home per doctor’s advice,” the statement added. “Infections of this nature are rare and potentially deadly. Thankfully, Elton’s medical team identified this quickly and treated it successfully.”

+5.
Oh, yes, and do NOT google them.
immediate treatment to remove the infection.
Remove implies extraction, not eradication with medicine.
Lots of nasty bugs in Africa can sneak in the back door.
Symptoms: a pounding sensation in the arse.
ROFL
Some guy on either YouTube or one of the singing shows changed the lyric to, “Don’t have much money but, girl if I did”
Now, I never took the original as a gay line. I think it’s more like you might say, “Boy, it’s hot out here!” But, the guy changed the lyric and caught all kinds of hell for being “homophobic.”
Perhaps an abscessed wound?
Buttulism?
“Rotten Peaches”
I dated cheerleaders and married one (42 years now).
But back in HS I made my GF a ballerina statue dancing before a mirror and brass rail. (Tiny Dancer). She wanted to be a Rockett. It was a good memory for her.
Another memory was going to a funeral for a first date in 1971. Elton was on the radio....
Compromised immune system?
The guy is a genius with studio collaborations, but not so stirring in person.
Butt flu.
He needed to “Yell Help.”
ok, I laughed...
Something lies bleeding in his hands
Elton is lucky to be alive. That is a long flight from South America to London.
Your an evil, evil person....lolol.
Same here. Though I do not approve his life. It is his to lead. However, I will never deny him the credit that he is an amazing song writer of our time. My favorite of all of his songs is “Someone Saved My Life Tonight” As a child listening to the song, it was it was telling me not to give up on life as I couldn’t deal with the things happening around me.
Mr. Elton John, wish you a speedy recovery.
