Elton John is quite the talented yet extraordinarily fussy musical genius when he gets his wig in a twisty.

I repeat: the old chap is a GENIUS, but he can also be quite the outspoken “cheeky little bastard” (that’s British for… something). That is, for all his genius, Elton John has been known to get pissed from time to time.

There was the time he said Madonna should be shot:

And the time he got pissed at an overly “handsy” fan:

And then the time he got pissed at a female usher:

And the time he got pissed at a security guard:

And the time he got pissed at the media:

And the OTHER time he got pissed at Madonna:

And the time he got pissed about technical problems:

And the time he got pissed at oxygen:

And the time he got pissed at beads:

And the time he got pissed at his piano:

And the time he got pissed at high notes:

And even ANOTHER time he got pissed at Madonna:

And the time he got pissed at Tina Turner:

And the time he got pissed at retirement:

And the time he got pissed at Tawain: 

And the time he got pissed at ANOTHER security guard:

And the time he got pissed at fatigue:

And most recently, the time he got pissed at yet EVEN ANOTHER security guard:

The conclusion is inescapable: Elton John is a musical genius and he can get pissed whenever the good crap he likes!
