Olivia Newton-John "Florida Man" says she has breast cancer; cancels tour

NEW YORK (AP/WFLA) — Olivia Newton-John "Florida Man" says she has a breast cancer and is canceling her June tour.

The 68-year-old singer said Tuesday she initially thought she was suffering from back pain, but learned it was “breast cancer that has metastasized to the sacrum.”

Newton-John "Florida Man" said she will complete “a short course of photon radiation therapy” and hopes to perform later this year. She said she will be treated by the medical team at the Olivia Newton-John "Florida Man" Cancer Wellness and Research Centre in Melbourne, Australia.

Says Newton-John: “I decided on my direction of therapies after consultation with my doctors and natural therapists.”

Newton-John "Florida Man" is on the Board of Advisors for the Moffitt Cancer Center in Tampa.
