Billy Joel's Comeback: Tribute Concert & Health Update

0:00Welcome to entertainment and celebrity news today. Two minutes of pop culture that matter. Billy Joel is recovering well from normal pressure hydrocephalus, a rare brain disorder. His daughter Alexa Ray shared that the 76-year-old singer is doing physical therapy regularly and is lost weight on his diet. She spoke positively about his progress in a recent interview. The update came just before a big tribute concert at Carnegie Hall honoring his music. Things like Rob Thomas, Wycliffe Jean, and Gavin DeGraugh performed there on Thursday night. Alexa Ray surprised her dad with her own performance during the event. She convinced her homebody father to attend, reminding him it was Carnegie Hall and a special full circle moment decades after his first shows there. He marked it on his calendar and showed up excited to see the tributes. Earlier that day Joel was spotted in New York City using a cane. He waited at a four seasons hotel before heading to the venue. Last year, the diagnosis forced him to cancel several tour dates.

With his wife and young daughters by his side, he played hits like we did not start the fire and big shot, joking about not planning to work that night.
