Fears grow for Barry Manilow as he drops to SEVEN STONE
Last updated at 13:23pm on 17.07.08


Fears are growing for the health of Barry Manilow in light of the
singer=92s recent drastic weight loss.


According to US magazine Globe, the Copacabana crooner has dropped to
around seven stone =96 a dangerously unhealthy weight for his six foot
frame.


The 65-year-old singer, who has a residency in Las Vegas, is not known
to be ill but has shocked fans and friends with his increasingly gaunt
appearance.


Although he may not have any current health problems Manilow's new
skinny frame is a cause for concern.


The singer was spotted in LA where he was enjoying a shopping trip
with a friend.

His clothes were hanging very loosely off his body in comparison to
his male companion.


Manilow has spent several spells in hospital throughout his 40-year
career for various breaks and sprains sustained during live
performances.


In 2003 he was photographed in a bizarre disguise as he left a plastic
surgeon=92s office in Beverly Hills.

S****ting a long blond wig, dark sungl***** and a peaked cap, the
singer=92s efforts to go incognito were thwarted by lurking paparazzi.


Manilow later confessed to having had a complete upper and lower
facelift in an effort to hold back the years.


The frail-looking star is due to visit London in December to perform
two gigs at the 02 arena.
