Sheryl Crow has a benign brain tumour
Quote:
After revealing she has a benign brain tumour, Sheryl Crow is getting on with her busy life.
The singer-songwriter was seen smiling and putting on a brave face as she arrived at Los Angeles International Airport this morning.
The 50-year-old was escorted through security while she carried her five-year-old son Wyatt across the terminal.
Sheryl was dressed in cropped white leggings, black flats and a tan and black peasant top.
The star, who wore minimal make-up and pulled her hair back into a ponytail, was most likely headed to New York where she will be a presenter on the Tony Awards tomorrow night.
She tweeted: 'Appreciate the love and support, I'm fine, really! Watch me on @TheTonyAwards this Sunday night!'
Earlier this week, Sheryl told the Las Vegas Review-Journal she was diagnosed with the brain tumour last year.
Crow, whose hits include 'All I Wanna Do' and 'Soak Up the Sun,' said the tumour was discovered when she went to a hospital to be
tested after she was experiencing memory loss.
She was prompted to get herself checked out after forgetting the lyrics to her hit song 'Soak Up the Sun' during a performance in Florida.
Crow said: 'I worried about my memory so much that I went and got an MRI. And I found out I have a brain tumour.'
However the star has managed to retain a sense of humour about her forgetful performance.
'I'm 50, what can I say? My brain's gone to s***,' she said.
She told the Las Vegas Review: 'I haven't really talked about it. In November, I found out I have a brain tumour.
But it's benign, so I don't have to worry about it.'
Crow also told an audience about her condition at a recent concert, which despite its serious sounding nature is very common.
It was unclear whether Crow, who is currently on a nationwide tour, will undergo surgery to remove the tumour.
It isn't the first health scare for the singer who is the adoptive mother of two boys, Wyatt Steven and Levi James.
In 2006 she beat breast cancer after undergoing surgery and radiation therapy.
