Barry Manilow Undergoes Hip And Leg Surgery

Barry Manilow has undergone surgery on his hips after performing his 1,000th show in Las Vegas.

The crooner completed a seven-year run in Sin City recently and now he's looking to bounce back from inflammation condition bursitis.

The operation will also repair torn leg muscles.

Optimistic about his recovery, the Mandy singer says, "That's what you get when you jump around to Copacabana for 30 years! Wish me luck!"

Manilow hopes to return to the stage at the beginning of February (12) and has a show booked at The Chicago Theater in Illinois. He'll then perform a four-night stint at Radio City Music Hall in New York.

I have been a Barry Manilow fan for more than 30 yrs. now. I am so pleased to know that Barry is recovering well from his recent hip surgery. I can only imagine the terrible pain that goes along with that type of surgery and hope that Barry is comfortable with the help of his drs. Barry never ceases to amaze me when it comes to his music and his determination to overcome dificult things that come his way. He is the best musician, entertainer, that I know of and I really appreciate all of the music that he has given to us. Love you Barry!
