Billy Joel Cancels Tours After Brain Disorder Diagnosis
Billy Joel, the iconic American musician, has been diagnosed with normal pressure hydrocephalus (NPH), a brain condition caused by excess cerebrospinal fluid buildup that has affected his hearing, vision, and balance. As a result, Joel has canceled all upcoming concerts to focus on recovery through physical therapy, following medical advice to refrain from performing. His wife, Alexis Roderick Joel, and daughter, Alexa Ray Joel, have expressed gratitude for the outpouring of fan support and emphasized the family's hope and faith in his full recovery. Joel himself apologized to fans for the cancellations and reassured them of his commitment to regain his strength. The diagnosis followed a fall during a concert earlier in the year and a previous surgery related to an undisclosed medical condition. Friends and colleagues, including Christie Brinkley and Tribeca Film Festival co-founders, have also publicly extended their support during Joel's recovery.
