Los Angeles: Singing icon Elton John has decided to quit Twitter, joining the list of celebrities who stopped using the platform since Elon Musk’s takeover.

" All my life I’ve tried to use music to bring people together. Yet it saddens me to see how misinformation is now being used to divide our world," Elton John tweeted.

All my life I’ve tried to use music to bring people together. Yet it saddens me to see how misinformation is now being used to divide our world.

I’ve decided to no longer use Twitter, given their recent change in policy which will allow misinformation to flourish unchecked.
