ELTON JOHN - ROBBIE WILLIAMS: 'SIR ELTON JOHN FORCED ME INTO REHAB'

SIR ELTON JOHN 'kidnapped' singer ROBBIE WILLIAMS and forced him to seek help for his drink and drug addictions.

Williams makes the revelations in his new biography FEEL.

He says the singing legend drove him to a clinic in 1997 after watching him binge on heroin, cocaine and ecstasy.

Robbie reveals, "I was sandwiched by two people in the back of the car, so I wouldn't try to commit suicide or run off."

But the singer insists rehab staff treated him like a "naughty boy" and the experience didn't help him: "There was no love or care. They said, 'Write down everything you are addicted to.'

"So I wrote it all down, everything I'd ever taken - heroin, ecstasy, marijuana, cocaine, alcohol, amyl nitrate, speed."

He fled the clinic and checked into another one just days later and he confesses the experience ruined his friendship with Sir Elton - the pair have barely spoken since.

Robbie adds, "Elton tried to do a lot for me and I didn't thank him enough. But what he did was weird.

"Elton tried to do what he thought was best, and obviously that came from a very loving place. But the whole thing for me is tarnished with the lack of professionalism."
