Sir Elton John 'Requests Helicopter Pad For New Years Eve Gig'

More Elton John

Sir Elton John has requested a helicopter pad for his New Years Eve concert at London’s O2 Arena.

The singer is apparently keen to arrive at the venue “in style” from his country home.

“Elton hasn't requested anything outrageous, all he's asked for is a helipad - he simply wasn't up for getting the Tube,” a source told the Mirror newspaper.

Will Young and X Factor winner Alexandra Burke will join Sir Elton at the concert tomorrow (December 31st).

Tickets for the gig, which will be broadcast live to audiences across America, are on sale now and available through Gigwise.
