Elton John Hospitalized in Los Angeles


After becoming ill last weekend while performing his "Million Dollar Piano" show in Las Vegas, Elton John checked into a hospital in Los Angeles yesterday. Doctors diagnosed the 65-year-old superstar with a serious respiratory infection.

Physicians at the hospital recommended that Elton not perform any concerts for approximately seven days and thus his shows Thursday, Saturday and Sunday at Caesar's Palace have been canceled.

"It feels strange not to be able to perform these 'Million Dollar Piano' concerts at The Colosseum," John said in the statement. "I love performing this show and I will be thrilled when we return to The Colosseum in October to complete the eleven concerts soon to be scheduled. All I can say to the fans is sorry I can't be with you."

Best of luck for a speedy recovery, Elton. We hope to see you back performing soon.
