Elton John Helping Eminem

Posted in Drugs, Elton John, Eminem on the January 4, 2010

Although it seems like an odd partnership, Elton John has been key in helping Eminem recover from his addiction to prescription drugs. Elton, who has his own issues with substance abuse, said “I’ve been helping Eminem over the last 18 months and he’s doing brilliantly.” The rapper had his first stint in rehab back in 2005, in which he almost overdosed on methadone. His sobriety didn’t stick and by May of 2009, Eminem developed a habit that led him to taking nearly 20 Vicodin, Ambien and Valium a day. Elton continued “I’m there if people want my help. If people ask for help you tell them where to go but there’s no point advising people if they don’t want to do it.”
