Singer Elton John has admitted that his experience around the late superstar Michael Jackson was not a pleasant one.
According to local media outlets, Elton John was seen opening up during a candid interview about how the performer was just extremely mentally sick.
He also felt that his presence was weird and just disturbing and he didn’t like it.
Speaking in his tell-all memoir, the 75-year-old hitmaker made some striking revelations on the matter and also shed light on a few interactions with the famous King of Pop that blew people’s minds away.
He recalled several interactions with the star performer who died in the year 2009 when he was just 50.
The news is not too shocking because Michael Jackson had several allegations related to s*x abuse against his name, and when Elton called him mentally sick and disturbing, it just goes to show how little people knew about the superstar entertainer.
Elton John recalls how he knew Michael Jackson from the age of 13 or 14. He referred to him as the most adorable kid around town. But then, as he grew older, Elton says he turned into a completely different person.
He claims that it was as if he was distancing himself away from reality or real life and entering a realm of his own.
Elton mentioned how it was something similar to how Elvis Presley behaved in his lifetime and it was just awfully sad for him to witness.
When asked what he felt was the reason for such shocking behavior of the performer, Elton shed light on his reliance on prescription drugs.
Elton concluded by mentioning how he had no idea what was going on in Michael Jackson’s head and what sort of drugs he was pumping into his body. But one thing was for sure. He really felt bad for the singer and knew that he had completely ‘lost his marbles.’
