Sir Elton John Gets a Royal Lift While Vacationing in Italy

Elton John took to the seas for a nautical adventure in Sardinia, but first he needed a little booty support.

The "Rocket Man" is getting some R&R in Porto Cervo with his family and got carried aboard a small boat for a ride with husband David Furnish.

It's probably a good thing that Elton didn't have to walk himself, he needs to rest for the upcoming farewell tour, where the 71-year-old has more than 300 dates scheduled across seven continents.

Those assistants better rest up.
