Barry Manilow to undergo surgery for bursitis, torn muscles

Barry Manilow has revealed that he will soon undergo surgery.

The 'Copacabana' singer will go under the knife in the coming days to treat bursitis in his hips as well as to repair torn muscles in his legs, reports People.

"That's what you get when you jump around to 'Copacabana' for 30 years! Wish me luck!" the 68-year-old said.

Manilow, who recently completed his 1,000th show at the Las Vegas Hilton and The Paris Resort as part of a seven-year residency, will take six weeks out of the spotlight to recover from the procedures.

He will return to the stage on February 2, when he is due to perform at the Chicago Theatre.

Manilow recently appeared at the 99th annual Royal Variety Performance in Manchester, England.

In October, he donated $300,000 to Missouri schools in order to purchase new musical instruments.
