Legendary singer Elton John was accused of peeing in a plastic bottle while buying sneakers at a shoe store in France. Ryan Sukkar, owner of Sugarkikz in Nice, told TMZ that Elton came to his store with his two sons and a bodyguard looking for a toilet. However, when he couldn’t find one, he asked his security for a bottle, walked a little away from the other shoppers and started peeing in the bottle.

His poor aim caused something to fall on the floor and Elton asked security to clean up the mess with a towel. The shocked and frustrated shop owner had no idea who the person was who was urinating in the middle of his shop. When he confronted the singer, he received the response: “I’m Elton John.”

Elton then bought sneakers for his sons, took a photo in the store and even shook Ryan’s hand.

As for his work, Elton will delight his fans with a new album, confirmed in May by his long-time collaborator Bernie Taupin. “Elton and I are releasing an album shortly, but I dare not say anything about it because I have strict instructions to keep it quiet,” revealed Taupin, the prolific lyricist behind many of John’s biggest hits. With palpable excitement in the air, Taupin assured listeners that the album was “finished and recorded.” He expressed confidence in the project’s contemporary flavor, saying it would surprise and delight audiences while aiming for success.

Although confirmation from John’s official team is still pending, fans are eagerly awaiting the release of the new album, which will mark another chapter in the illustrious careers of these two music icons.

The singer of ‘Crocodile Rock’ has released a total of 31 studio albums since the beginning of his career. Career in the late 1960s and his latest record came out in 2021 in the form of “The Lockdown Sessions,” which featured collaborations with Miley Cyrus, Stevie Wonder, Nicki Minaj and Brandi Carlile.

That same year, he teamed up with Dua Lipa for “Cold Heart” and ended the year with Ed Sheeran for the holiday song “Merry Christmas” before collaborating with Britney Spears for “Hold Me Closer” in 2022.
