Sir Elton John has praised the media during an interview for catching Kate Moss using drugs and going public with the story.

Elton, 58, declared that this would be a good thing for Kate's life, because it has forced her to get help and go into rehab. Elton added that, if the king of rock, Elvis, had lived in England, he would probably still be alive today because the British media would have given him a hard time and wouldn't let him get away with it.

He said: "I'm just glad Kate is there, I am happy she is doing something."
Kate is currently checked into the Meadows rehabilitation clinic in Arizona.

Sir Elton added: "I think Kate has made a really positive move. The Meadows is a great place. It is where two close friends of mine went. Kate is in very good hands."

The singer also confessed that he had been a drug addict for 16 years, because nobody found out about his problem.

"The great thing about England is that the media will give you a very hard time. They won't let you get away with it.
I wish Elvis Presley had lived in England because if he had, he would probably still be alive today. What this story has achieved is it has forced Kate Moss to get help.
Plenty of people must have told her to do something about it. But plenty of people told me and it took me 16 years to go and do it", the artist revealed.
