Elton John, 78, gave emotional new details about his longtime struggle with food addiction in the new sports documentary, Give Me the Ball!, which premiered at the Sundance Film Festival yesterday.
While the film centers on the life and accomplishments of tennis legend Billie Jean King, 82, it also documents King and John’s decade-spanning friendship. The pair first met in the early 1970s, eventually bonding over their sexualities and shared experiences with food addiction.
“These sorts of things take their toll, and we had very honest conversations about food, as an addictive substance,” John said in the documentary, according to People magazine.
