Elton John Vomits During Aussie Concert

Elton John left the stage briefly during a weekend concert in Brisbane after being struck by a bout of nausea, according to a news report Monday. All together now…

EWwww!

John left the stage without a word about two hours into his Sunday concert. He was gone for about five minutes, the Australian Associated Press reported. The 59-year-old star was about to play ‘Crocodile Rock,’ one of the most popular songs of his four-decade career.

When he returned, John used an Australian colloquialism to explain that he had left the stage to vomit. “I thought I’d better chunder in the toilet (rather) than all over the front row,” he was quoted as saying.

Apparently feeling better, John closed the show about 45 minutes later.

A tour spokeswoman said the veteran entertainer had been suffering from an upset stomach.

“He got it out and got on with it,” the spokeswoman said. source
