Music legend Elton John recently opened up about his two sons in a rare newspaper interview with U.K. paper The Sun. Elton describes his sons, Zachary, eight, and Elijah, six, as “so boyish” and “real boys,” noting they are “girl mad” and “sport mad.” “They said, ‘There was a new girl in class today and she really fancies me’ and I said, ‘That’s great!'” Elton shared. “They’re real boys and they’re just very athletic, normal kids.” Elton also took the opportunity to make a joking dig at fellow icon Billy Joel, who argued last year that Elton is “dragging down” his legacy by releasing new albums. “Well actually, he hasn’t made anything since 1993 because he can’t. I love releasing new music, it doesn’t sell but that’s the point – it’s like telling a painter not to paint,” Elton said. “He’s just lazy, yeah, I love him to death but he’s lazy.” Elton is currently on his epic Farewell Yellow Brick Road tour, saying a final goodbye to his fans so that he can spend more time with his children.
