Barry Manilow, these days, looks like a man constantly doing a bank robbery with a pair of tights squeezed over that peculiar face of his. That’s the perils of indulging in FAR TOO MUCH plastic surgery folks!
And now, Baz The Manilow is shuffling to recovery after undergoing hip replacement surgery, like he’s someone’s nan.
Of course, now he’s got new hips, only his eyeballs are the things he was born with, leaving absolutely everything else constructed by now incredibly wealthy plastic surgeons. Basically, he’s the Frankenstein’s Monster of MOR.
The 362-year-old star underwent an operation to treat an inflammatory condition called bursitis or something and quacks repaired some torn leg muscles. Presumably, they were under too much strain after being pulled toward his eerily immovable face.
If you ever see Manilow with a jazz beard, you can absolutely assume that his facelift is so tight that it has pulled his public hair all the way up to his neck.
In a letter posted on Facebook, Manilow gave fans an update on his progress.
He wrote:
“I tell you, going though something as rough as this makes you very grateful for a lot of things. Grateful for the genius doctors who can perform this incredibly complicated surgery; grateful for the caregivers who treated me like their own family and most of all grateful for good health. I will never, never take being healthy for granted again.
“Not being able to do anything without a team of people helping me was an eye opener. And I mean anything. Like getting out of bed or getting to the john to brush my teeth…”
Aw, someone had to help him whizz! That’s nice isn’t it? We bet his genitals look exactly like his face.
He added:
“The good news is that after three nightmarish weeks, I’m coming back from the dead. I’m slowly beginning to walk – still with a walker – but I think that will be over soon… The doctors say that everything should start to ease up by the end of this week. If that’s so, what a great New Year’s Eve I’m going to have!”
A great NYE with the weirdest face in pop! HURRAY! Hopefully, he can have a think about that song of his, ‘I Write The Songs’, which he didn’t write. It’s been bugging us for years!

I know a lass who’s a dead ringer for Barry Manilow. Unfortunate.
JW says
First of all, it’s obvious you haven’t done ANY homework at all, you jackass! Barry did NOT have hip replacement surgery. He had the abductor muscles and the bursas repaired!
Are you jealous of him because he has more people adoring him than you will ever have? He’s earned everything he has and earned all the fans he has. God bless him for being 68 years young and still going like he was 30. Have you ever seen his show? If not, you have no right to say anything. He isn’t called the “showman of our Generation” for nothing. It’s one of the best shows I’ve ever seen and I’ve seen a lot of them.
And just an FYI for your 20 IQ……..It is Michael Jackson who gets the blue ribbon for the weirdest face in pop music! YOU should look as good as Barry does!
You didn’t even have the guts to put your name on this. No balls????

JW is SUCH a Fanilow
JW says
I am not what you call a “Fanilow” at all. That term is not accepted by Barry’s friends and he doesn’t like it. I have seen him in concert and he puts on a great show. It’s as simple as that. If you read up on him and listen to him when he is doing interviews, he is heavy into charity work and has several charities of his own. Lots of articles out there that tell what kind of a person he is. One of the things he has done (and there are many) is contribute lots of musical instruments to schools around the country who are in danger of losing their music programs, one of which was Joplin, Missouri that was devastated. How much have you contributed?
Don’t be so quick to judge a person when you know absolutely nothing about that person. Sooner or later you will end up with egg on your face.
Have a nice day :-)
JW says
And here’s a few other things everyone should know before they judge Barry Manilow.
The author of this article obviously is very dense and knows nothing about this man which is obvious by all the errors in this article (spell check is a great thing) yet he/she is spouting off looking like a total idiot who likes to hear himself/herself talk. No chance of becoming a good reporter unless he/she gets the facts straight. BTW – anyone who has any knowledge of the man at all knows this author wrote this article just to rile the masses and the ones that know better are laughing at him. It really is pathetic that this kind of drivel is allowed to be posted. If you’re going to post an article, at least get your facts straight.
If you listen to the words to “I Write the Songs”, it is not Barry who writes the songs – it’s MUSIC that writes the songs. Word are just words until they are put to music and then they come alive.
Mr. Manilow’s career has endured for over 35 years so that says a lot. For those that don’t know, he has won many awards while in the music business and the UK fan base adores him. He sells out almost every show he does so what does that tell you? All these people can’t be wrong. He’s a decent individual and rarely in any of the tabloids because they have no gossip on him to print. Better luck next time all you smut papers and smut reporters but, gossip sells.

you suck. your article is stupid and so are you. You sound like a mean person
Do you have nothing better to do than put down Barry Manilow? You obviously know nothing about him. All you are centered on is his appearance. You should check out his concerts sometime. Maybe you would not be so nasty than
Nancy says
This is so funny. Now you will have all the Barry Manilow freaks all over you
john oleary says
hmmm unlike you..he has talent you stupid thick prick
Cookie Monster says
“How much have you contributed?”
Let us hear your answer first. Note that “monitoring random blog sites and commenting like nobody’s business” isn’t the best answer in this situation.
Cookie Monster says
Good choice of words, “endured” is bang-on. However, I would change the phrasing ever so slightly. Humanity, and some not-yet deaf dogs, have endured the career of this man for thirty-five years.
To answer a question that you posed, “He sells out almost every show he does so what does that tell you?”. It tells me that anyone can reserve a table at the local coffee shop and call it a sell-out.
Finally, on behalf of amused readers everywhere, let us thank you for your participation in this smut. Good smutting, JW! We all look forward to your next effort.
Cookie Monster says
Just don’t call it a “Fanilow”…
sarah p says
Im sorry guys, but i recently had an operation that has swollen my vagina to the size of a shopping cart, its been dragging on the floor for the last few days and the SLUG trail i have been leaving everywhere has me very embarassed……….needless to say im not in my right mind………
I cant erase my previous post, but i would like to acknowledge that i was wrong, Barry Manilow is gayer than a San Francisco Rainbow Parade where everyone is issued a bicycle with a 12 inch dildo glued to each seat……whew, i feel a lot better now…………….hey…..my vagina is starting to turn back to normal, who knew just telling the truth would set me free…………Yay, im so happy !!!
Kaitlin says
First, let me correct your information. Mr Manilow did not have hip replacement,his hips had torn muscles that were repaired. He has not had “plastic surgery” other than one time. If you are going to criticize someone, please get your facts straight. Mr Manilow has been in the Music business for 35 years. He is a genius at composing and arranging. His shows are sold out because he is one of the best musicians around.If you don’t like his music, that is fine you are entitled to your opinion; but, get your facts straight before you put your stupidity into print.
