Barry Manilow, the 82-year-old singer-songwriter famous for “Copacabana,” has announced he was diagnosed with lung cancer after an MRI revealed a cancerous spot on his left lung following a severe bronchitis episode. He will undergo surgery to remove the spot and has reassured fans that it has not spread, requiring no chemotherapy or radiation. Consequently, he will need to reschedule his January concert dates but plans to return for performances on Valentine’s Day weekend. Manilow expressed his regret for the schedule changes and is looking forward to resuming his shows in Las Vegas.
