Elton John Hands Lola Young House Keys After Losing Chart Bet

The lighthearted clip suggests a symbolic gesture after 'D£aler' stalled at No. 27.

Overview

  • An Instagram video shows John, 78, giving Young, 24, keys and joking about staying "the odd night."
  • Young replies on camera that the house is hers and captions the post noting his promise after the song missed No. 1.
  • The wager stems from John’s Rocket Hour remark that he would "bet my house" on "D£aler" becoming a No. 1 single.
  • The track has so far peaked at No. 27 on the U.K. singles chart and appears on Young’s album I'm Only F------ Myself, released Sept. 19.
  • Reports characterize the exchange as playful, with no confirmation of a legal transfer or plans for Young to move into the property.
