While performing in Monaco (France), a photograph took a picture of Elton John using an autocue during this private gig.

The star, who was performing at at a private birthday party, appeared to read the words of his hit Your Song from a screen hidden among flowers.

John’s publicists have denied that he needed a prompter to help him remember the words.

They said it helped the singer keep to the running order of his hour-long medley of hits.

Little bit weird for a professional singer…
