“When I fly over the snow-covered Alps, all I think about [Ed. note: jones over] is the ‘snow’ that I once took,” Elton John told a German magazine. “Snow” is a reference to cocaine, of course, a powder the 57-year-old singer was addicted to for many years. So when he says he was flying over the Alps, he was flying over the Alps. “Somebody once calculated that I spent 70 million dollars every 20 months in the ’80s.” Who was paid to figure that out? The money could have gone toward more primo “snow.” (ananova)
