The 72-year-old singer was sadly rushed to the hospital on the evening of Wednesday, February 10.
"Following a triumphant sold out concert in Memphis, Barry Manilow was rushed back to Los Angeles due to complications from emergency oral surgery that Manilow had on Monday," a statement on his Facebook read, adding that his upcoming concerts were being rescheduled.

In addition to having to cancel his upcoming performances, there's a strong possibility that the "Mandy" singer will not be able to attend the Grammys. "At this time it is unclear if Manilow will be able to attend the Grammy Awards on Monday, February 15th where he is nominated for his 15th Grammy Award for his latest album, My Dream Duets," the message later concluded.

This isn't the first time the iconic performer has experienced health problems during his successful music career. Just last month he was rushed to the hospital after a heart attack scare. He also undergoes dental treatment often due to a benign tumor ruptured in his mouth in 1986.
