"I suffer from vertigo. I woke up this morning in a spinning vertigo. When you wake up and the room starts moving around on you, you know you're in trouble."
While keeping quiet on any potential diagnosis, the 57-year-old star's publicist, Kirt Webster, said that the singer has nevertheless been cleared by doctors to travel to the U.S., where he's due to perform at a handful of gigs in Florida next week.
