Elton John is talking about how he helped Eminem kick his addiction to prescription pills. He also believes the rapper is doing well with sobriety.
"I've been helping Eminem over the last 18 months and he's doing brilliantly," John told the BBC.
"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," he added.
Eminem has also cited John as a help during his struggle with addiction. He said he went to the singer for advice because he understood the reasons a famous musician is tempted by drugs.
