Just before the end of the year, Barry Manilow revealed that he has lung cancer and would be undergoing surgery to remove it.
The singer, 82, revealed that he underwent the surgery and is doing better.
Hopefully, after an expected month-long recovery, he will be back delighting audiences.

Barry Manilow reveals that he has lung cancer |

Christmas is Barry Manilow’s time of the year, so for him to cancel his holiday concerts, there has to be an important reason. Sadly, there is.
The singer dealt with two bouts of long-term bronchitis recently, and his doctors decided to do an MRI to see if there was anything else going on. That is when they discovered a cancerous spot on his left lung.
They have recommended that the 82-year-old undergo immediate surgery to remove it, and they are hopeful that it has not spread because it was caught early.
However, he will need a month to recuperate. Therefore, he will be postponing his January dates and is hoping to be back for his Valentine’s shows.
Manilow ended his statement by reminding people to get tested at the slightest symptoms. By doing so, it could save your life, like it is his.
Let’s pray that everything goes smoothly for Barry and that he is back doing what he loves: entertaining audiences with his music!

Barry Manilow is doing life in Vegas |

Barry Manilow has done over 650 shows at Westgate Vegas, and he will not be stopping anytime soon.
Westgate’s owner, David Siegel, offered him a lifetime contract to perform at the resort’s International Theater.
“David Siegel and the Westgate team have been like family to me,” the 81-year-old Manilow said in a statement to the Las Vegas Review-Journal. “I am deeply grateful to have the opportunity to call Westgate home for the rest of my career.”
This is the first time Siegel has offered anyone a lifetime contract since he took over in 1982.
Even though Manilow is set for life, he only has 48 concerts scheduled through 2025. But I am sure he will be adding on in the near future.

I did not need to see Barry put the Man in Manilow |

When I think of Barry Manilow, I think of him as a safe dancer. However, the singer put a video of him dancing to his song I’m Your Man, and it cannot be unseen.
Manilow was dry humping the air and running his hand down his crotch. All I can say is my poor eyes. It is not something I have ever wanted to see, and now that image is burned into my head.
I am going to need to listen to some Bette Middler to erase the memory.

Who does Barry Manilow want to play him in his biopic? |

Barry Manilow is on The Drew Barrymore Show today, and the actress asked him a lot of questions. Thus, what do you do on a talk show?
First, she wanted to know where his awards are, and he admitted to her that he uses his Emmy to keep his door open in his studio. It is not that he is not proud of his award; it is just that it is a good doorstop.
Then she wanted to know if he could eat one food all of the time, what would it be? The singer said, “Whipped cream!” I am with him on that!
And finally, who does he want to play him in his biopic? Without hesitation, he said, “Robert Redford, of course!”
Something that would be interesting to see because Redford is seven years older than Manilow, and retired.
Personally, I would go with Rob Lowe. Think back to when Lowe was in Behind the Candelabra. Wouldn’t he be perfect?
