Elton John claps back at critics commenting at his kitchen

Elton John has shared an indignant TikTok after some cheeky fans commented on the state of his kitchen.

Last month, the legendary British singer-songwriter shared a funny TikTok about being unable to escape his hit single Step into Christmas.

The clip showed John, frantically opening various cupboards and drawers in his kitchen as the song blasted out at him and the video has since garnered almost eight million views on the streaming platform.

“Hello people,” he begins in the new TikTok.

“It’s Elton John here. A couple of weeks ago I did some videos in this kitchen about how crazy ‘Step into Christmas’ was driving me, and it got an incredible response, which I was quite startled about.”

“But a lot of the response was kind of negative about how dirty my oven was. My oven door, my oven window. And I can assure you, I don’t have anything dirty in this house. I’ve never had anything dirty, I’m not a dirty person,” he clarified.

“So, to prove I don’t have anything that’s dirty, I’m going to do something to show you.”

In a separate clip, John can be seen putting on a pair of pink fluffy Marigolds and scrubbing away at his oven door.

“Look at this, oh! Gosh,” he says. “Look, I’ve got the cleanest oven window in Windsor.”

Step into Christmas was released in 1973 and written by Elton John and his longtime songwriting partner Bernie Taupin.

The song peaked at No 24 on the UK singles chart but achieved a new high of No 8 in 2019.

It is currently on track to get back into the UK Top 40, along with other immortal Christmas classics such as Mariah Carey’s All I Want For Christmas is You, The Pogues’ Fairytale of New York, and Wham’s Last Christmas.
