Sir Elton John has been forced to postpone three concerts in the US this month because of ill-health.

A statement on his official website said the 62-year-old singer had a "serious case" of E.coli bacterial infection and influenza.

It added his doctor advised him to pull out of the gigs in Seattle and Portland where he was to appear with Billy Joel.

Sir Elton postponed a Dublin concert on Thursday after shelving gigs in London, Liverpool, Sheffield, Newcastle.

He is reportedly being treated at a hospital in central London.

Promoters say they are hoping to reschedule the European dates - part of his Red Piano tour - for December.

Details of plans to reschedule the US concerts, on 4 and 7 November at Seattle's Key Arena and 10 November at Rose Garden Arena, Portland, are yet to be announced.

Sir Elton and Billy Joel were forced to cancel US dates after Joel fell ill in July.

Joel was told to rest after coming down with "flu-like symptoms" and "extreme fatigue".

Sir Elton and Joel had been touring together for two months under the banner Face 2 Face, selling out arenas across the US.

E. coli infection? ???

Folks, remember to clean all meats well, and then cook 'em thoroughly!

I hope Sir Elton John doesn't have H1N1

And I hope he doesn't die like MJ...because you'll be hearing about Elton John for months!

E. coli is a treatable condition.

I hope Sir Elton John doesn't have H1N1



He'd be better off with H1N1.  E.coli with pneumonia is severe.

I hope that he get's well, soon.

Let's hope Sir Elton feels better and gets back to tickling those ivories again :)

You don't gotta tell Sir Elton what to do with his meat.  He's handled more meat than...uh...David Bowie!

At least Elton John is fine.

I just hope he didn't die because it would be on the news for weeks, right after the death of Michael Jackson.
