France’s beloved Johnny Hallyday has been placed into a drug-induced coma to further his recovery after an operation in Los Angeles to remove lesions on the singer’s back.
Hallyday had previously been operated on in Paris, but he was rushed into surgery on Friday and doctors in the U.S. “repaired things” that had gone wrong with his first surgery.
Whoa.
Scary!
Hallyday’s producer, Jean-Claude Camus, revealed on a French radio program that the Hallyday family may be pressing charges against the original doctor for malpractice, and the singer’s wife is notably “very angry” over the complications.
French President Nicolas Sarkozy has expressed France’s well wishes for the singer, stating, “It provokes great emotion in France because he’s a much-loved man and, for each of us, he represents a bit of our personal history: memories, feelings, songs, music.”
Here’s to a safe and speedy recovery!
