New daddy Sir Elton John is showing some tough love to fellow musician Billy Joel. Admitting that Billy is going to “hate him” for it, John told Rolling Stone in the Feb. 17 edition, that he and his former touring partner had to cancel many shows in the summer of 2009 because of Joel’s sicknesses and “alcoholism.” At the time some of the duo’s high-grossing tour were postponed supposedly because the 60-year-old Joel came down with “flu-like symptoms”. But Elton flat out states that Joel needs to take rehab more seriously and “do something better” with his life, the Associated Press reported. He also says Joel should do rehab like he did it – with patients cleaning floors, not watching television. Joel has tried rehab for his alcohol issues on two occasions, a month in a California rehab center in 2005, and about two weeks at a Connecticut facility in 2002.source-(HMG Celebrity News)
