We could cry watching this.
Elton John broke down in tears as he played an emotional tribute to late pal George Michael during his Las Vegas concert on Wednesday, and it's clear the music legend is still struggling to come to terms with the British pop star's untimely death.
The Wham! frontman was found dead in bed by his boyfriend on Christmas morning, and Hollywood was quick to mourn him on social media.
Elton played "Don't Let The Sun Go Down On Me" and told the audience, "I only wish George was here to sing it with me."
"There were thousands of us in tears, and it was very emotional. Elton had sung a song in memory of John Lennon when he spoke about George Michael. After he sang for George, he turned his back on the audience and was shaking and looked like he was crying. I was in tears and so was everyone around me," a concertgoer told Daily Mail .
We still can't believe he's gone.
