OPERA STAR HORNE BEATS CANCER

Opera star MARILYN HORNE is celebrating after winning her cancer battle. The beloved 74-year-old mezzo-soprano was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer - the disease that killed her friend Luciano Pavarotti - in 2006. Horne underwent a pioneering experimental treatment that has only been administered to select cancer sufferers, which involves regular injections of pancreatic cancer cells genetically modified with a gene to boost immunity.
