The internet has been abuzz with rumors of an alleged scandal involving Elton John. According to a foreign tabloid, the legendary artist allegedly relieved himself at a famous French shoe store in front of customers. The owner shared the details.

Elton John is undoubtedly a legendary figure in the world of pop culture. The 77-year-old musician has sold over 300 million albums worldwide, making him one of the most famous artists of all time. His timeless work has earned him hundreds of awards, honors, and millions of dollars in his bank account. In 1998, Elton was knighted by Queen Elizabeth II. Besides his continued success, his colorful private life is often a topic of conversation. As a reminder, the author of the hit "I'm Still Standing" has been married for many years to David Furnish, with whom he raises two sons.

Although Elton John is gradually winding down his career, he still attracts media attention. A few days ago, an American tabloid reported an alleged scandal involving the artist. According to TMZ, the 77-year-old relieved himself in a plastic bottle while shopping in France. The portal cited Ryan Sukkar, the owner of the Sugarkikz shoe store in Nice. According to his account, Elton arrived at the store with his two sons and a bodyguard. When the musician was informed that there was no available restroom, he allegedly asked for a bottle and relieved himself in front of the other customers. The store owner claims that the star's urine also landed on the floor due to a lack of precision.

Interestingly, Sukkar admitted to TMZ that he was initially "shocked and frustrated." The negative emotions subsided when he realized he was dealing with a major global star. After hearing the 77-year-old say, "I'm Elton John!" the store owner reportedly turned a blind eye to the situation, shook the artist's hand, and took a commemorative photo with him. Indeed, a picture of the "Rocket Man" singer and his children shopping in Nice appeared on the Sugarkikz Instagram profile. So far, the musician has not responded to the revelations of the American tabloid.
