The singer was briefly hospitalized after suffering a fall at his villa in Nice, France.

Music legend Sir Elton John spent a night at the hospital after he reportedly fell at his villa in Nice, France.

According to his spokesperson, the 76-year-old "Rocket Man" singer was hospitalized and treated for minor injuries “following a slip yesterday at his home in the south of France.”


But rest assured, the legendary Rock and Roll Hall of Famer is "Still Standing."

The spokesperson continued:

“Elton visited the local hospital as a precautionary measure."
"Following check-ups, he was immediately discharged this morning and is now back at home and in good health.”

Concerned fans sent him a lot of love.

After all, "That's What Friends Are For."



They also invoked some of his best songs to bring a little levity after the bummer news.



What caused the fall?

People shared the same theory.


The five-time Grammy Award winner is in the company of family at his summer home in France after his Farewell Yellow Brick Road tour wrapped in July.

He went through a similar ordeal when a nasty fall in 2021 forced him to reshuffle concert dates for the globally successful tour after he underwent hip surgery.

He was back on his feet and able to walk using crutches in time to accept his appointment as a member of the Order of the Companions of Honour by King Charles.

At the time, he said during a ceremony at Windsor Castle:

“I may not look as if I’m 100 percent fit–I’m not quite."
"But I’m still raring to go and I’ve got a lot more work to do as far as my life goes.”

His Farewell Yellow Brick Road tour, named as a nod to his 1973 album, Goodbye Yellow Brick Road, became one of the highest-grossing tours of all time at $939 million from 328 shows and with six million tickets sold.

Stephen Colbert Makes Somber Plea To Americans In Wake Of Charlie Kirk's Death

Late-night host Stephen Colbert had a somber message for Americans as he addressed the assassination of far-right activist Charlie Kirk, stressing that "political violence only leads to more political violence."

Kirk died after an unidentified gunman shot him in the neck as he—ironically enough—mocked victims of gun violence at an event in Utah Valley State University. Kirk's murder has galvanized the far-right, with President Donald Trump and his surrogates claiming without evidence that rhetoric from Democrats is responsible for Kirk's death.

TikToker Hilariously Calls Out Target After Champion Pants Feature Awkwardly-Placed Front Pleat

Sometimes you can just tell when something was designed *for* women, but was not actually designed *by* women.

Take, for instance, the new pleated pants available at Target from the Champion clothing line. While there's nothing wrong with pleated pants and they certainly have a suitable spot in the workplace, the latest rendition of Champion pleated pants are, shall we say, NSFW.

Woman Goes Viral After Revealing How Her Obsession With Matcha Landed Her In The Hospital

Let's be honest: Too much of anything isn't good for us. It's all about the balance!

But the media and social media trends have taught us that certain things are really good for us, encouraging us to be like the "very mindful and very demure" girls and take care of ourselves. One such example is drinking more matcha, especially if you really like coffee or think you have a caffeine addiction.
