US singer Michael Bolton (70) has had to undergo brain tumor surgery. The tumor was discovered shortly before Christmas and removed immediately, the musician announced on his social media on Friday. The operation was successful. He is now resting at home.
Bolton went on to tell his fans that he would be focusing entirely on his recovery in the coming months and would therefore be taking a break from touring. He is "working hard" to get well quickly so that he can get back on stage. The father of three had planned concerts in the USA from February. According to his website, he wanted to perform in Switzerland in April.
The Grammy award-winner became famous in the 80s and 90s with pop ballads such as "How Am I Supposed To Live Without You" and "Love Is A Wonderful Thing". His cover versions of "To Love Somebody" and "When A Man Loves A Woman" became big hits. Last year, Bolton released the album "Spark of Light". As a songwriter, he also wrote hits for Barbra Streisand, Joe Cocker and Cher.
