Blind Item #2

This older permanent A list country singer has cancer and has been hiding it for close to two years now. Apparently things have taken a turn for the worse and is not expected to live the rest of the year.

  1. Willie Nelson. Had to cancel at least one concert recently.

  2. Actually older and hiding it makes me think Willie Nelson?

  3. Loretta Lynn.

    She's been struggling with health problems and cancelled dates in the last year, and just recently broke her hip. Doesn't seem like the prognosis is good.

  4. Dolly Parton cancelled several performances/events to attend last year,and would never want something like this revealed. Truly hope it’s not..... but:(

  6. Really hope it's not Dolly!

  7. I'm going to throw Kenny Rogers into the mix. He did a farewell tour last year, and has been looking pretty gaunt.

  8. Damnit man this is going to hurt, i assume its Willie.

  9. @jimbonius Rogers has admitted he has cancer, though. It's no secret.

    I'm really hoping it is not Dolly, although she is known for being very private about her personal life, so thats a good guess.

  10. I hope it's not anyone named. I've loved music from all of them, and am not a country music fan. I love Dolly and her support for the LGBT community. Willie Nelson is Willie MF Nelson. Music, Weed, Humor, Kindness - he is iconic and still a very nice man, even after a lifetime of putting up with fans he still appreciates the love and gives it back. Hopefully “Still Not Dead” was a declaration of good health and he really does just have the flu. Loretta Lynn broke her hip and had a stroke not that long ago. I know her health isn't great, but it also isn't being kept secret since her sister posted about it (I still remember seeing Crystal Gayle at the Rodeo, riding around on the back of a convertible - sitting on the top of the seat/back of car - and being scared her hair would get stuck in the wheels).

    No guesses on this from me. This is a blind I would feel sad about being right on.

  11. Willie seems like A+ country

  12. Willie IS A+ country. I know I will take time off when ever he passes.
    Love me some Willie.

  13. Willie is going to be 85 in April. I saw him live twice last year. It's amazing to me that he can stand up and do a whole (great) show, but when he walked off I could just see how much it took out of him. In other words, he doesn't have to have cancer to need to cancel shows. I don't know how even the healthiest of 80+ year olds can keep the schedule he's kept. Also, no one has to "hide" cancer because they're not under any obligation to tell any damn person they don't want to tell.

  14. This makes me sad!! I love old country. I don't want it to be anyone named :(

  15. Long live Willie.... Angel flying too close to the ground playing on my Alexa stat! Don K - i saw Crystal Gayle at the Houston rodeo, too! That hair! Blue Bayou. I would think Willie would be A+ so i'm going with RT or LL.

    From 2015, I think it's Willie

  17. Loretta Lynn was recently in the news.

  18. I think this is Willie. 😫

  19. Willie or Loretta. Either would be a devastating loss.

    ReplyDelete
  20. DAAAAMN not Willie or Dolly....PLEASE God can we trade for Toby or Taylor? JK...a little.

  21. God bless Willie Nelson. When he dies, so does country music.

  22. Someone quick, put out a Missing Persons Alert for count. Hes been abducted and an imposter is in his place 👽

  23. Loretta - had a stroke and now has a broken hip. Unfortunately, at her age, recovery from such an injury is extremely difficult. It includes a great deal of bed rest which invites issues like pneumonia and secondary infections. This is how my grandmother passed away. :(

  24. I think this is Willie Nelson too. I'm sure I saw a previous blind here about him regarding his illness.

    ReplyDelete
  25. I think it's Tim Mcgraw. I know he's not old compared to some but he is definitely getting up there and has been in the industry a long time.

    He has looked sick for a couple of years. Hope I'm wrong.

  26. Didn't george strait retire from touring a few years back?

    ReplyDelete
  27. I think it's Loretta. Secondary infections in elderly patients are more likely than not following a broken hip. That is usually the last straw for many elderly folks, even the otherwise healthy ones.

  28. Loretta probably has bone cancer secondary to some other kind of cancer (did she ever have breast cancer?).... broke her hip.

  29. Everyone pray for Willie! He is a National Treasure

  30. Not Willie, MJ is actually preventative of cancer, not altogether, but science shows it actually helps protect on some level, so it can't be Willie.

    1. Bob Marley died of brain cancer and I have several pot head friends who have died of cancer. If like to see the statistics on your statements. Personally, I will be using the oil when my lungs deteriorate..

    2. Loretta Lynn is my favorite c country singer. She is suffering so much. I think it's Randy Travis.

  31. Willis has canceled a number of shows over the past 3 or 4 years due to illness. He keeps working because he loves it and because he has tons of people on the payroll. He's supported some of them for decades.
