Barry Manilow has been diagnosed with lung cancer and will be postponing his January concerts.
Barry Manilow, known for his song “Mandy,” announced on Instagram Monday that he has been diagnosed with lung cancer. He explained that doctors found a cancerous spot on his left lung and he will be undergoing surgery to remove it. He expressed his regret at having to alter his plans.
Barry Manilow recently shared that he battled bronchitis for six weeks and then experienced another five-week setback. After returning to performing at the Westgate Las Vegas, his doctor ordered an MRI as a precaution to ensure he was fully recovered.

The Mercedes arrived right on time and parked near a runway at the small, upscale airport serving the cool, comfortable resort city.
The singer of “Copacabana (At the Copa)” feels fortunate his cancer was detected early, and his doctors currently think it hasn’t spread. He’s undergoing further testing to be certain.
Now that my Christmas A Gift of Love concerts have finished, I’m having surgery to remove a spot. Thankfully, that’s all the treatment I’ll need – no chemotherapy or radiation, just rest, chicken soup, and watching old episodes of I Love Lucy.
The singer, 82, announced that January concerts have been moved to February-April to allow a month-long recovery from surgery. He’s known for hits like “Could It Be Magic,” “I Write the Songs,” and “Weekend in New England.” Details about the new dates were shared on Instagram, and those with tickets to the original shows can now reschedule.
Manilow mentioned he’ll be performing again over Valentine’s Day weekend at the Westgate Las Vegas, a venue where he has a long-term residency.
Barry Manilow hinted at a fun celebration coming up in February, writing, ‘Something tells me that weekend is going to be one big party!’ He then wished his fans a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year, and reminded everyone to get tested if they feel even a little unwell.
