Sir Elton John has been admitted to hospital with a 'serious respiratory infection', US sources have reported.
65-year-old Elton was treated at the Cedars-Sinai Hospital in Los Angeles after being admitted at around 6am yesterday morning.
Four concerts that Elton was due to perform in Las Vegas this weekend have been cancelled under doctors orders
TMZ reports that Elton has been told that 'he needs “complete rest and antibiotic treatment to prevent damage." Apologising to fans for the cancellation, Elton told TMZ : "It feels strange not to be able to perform these 'Million Dollar Piano' concerts at the Colosseum.
“I love performing the show and I will be thrilled when we return to the Colosseum in October to complete the 11 concerts."
Adding: "All I can say to the fans is 'sorry I can't be with you."
