Mötley Crüe Frontman Vince Neil Recovers After Stroke, Resumes Las Vegas Residency

Mötley Crüe frontman Vince Neil suffered a stroke in his sleep on Christmas night 2024, which left the entire left side of his body paralyzed and forced the band to postpone their Las Vegas residency originally scheduled for March and April. The stroke resulted in a difficult recovery process, during which Neil had to relearn how to walk, progressing from being carried, to wheelchair use, then a walker and cane, before regaining near-full mobility. Despite initial medical doubts about his ability to return to performing, Neil remained determined and credits singing during therapy as a motivating factor. As of now, he reports being 90 to 95 percent recovered and expects to return to the stage with full strength. The band rescheduled their residency to September through October 2025 to accommodate his rehabilitation. Neil expressed his gratitude to fans for their understanding and vowed to deliver the performances they deserve once fully recovered.
