SIR Elton John has upped his fee for a private gig to a whopping £4million — a 300 per cent increase. The Rocket Man singer, 75, was previously reported to charge £1million for an hour of intimate performance.

A source said: “It seems he’s raised his fee in line with the cost of living soaring and now it’s £3million more. “The £4million fee was quoted earlier this year when Elton was approached to play at a wedding.
