John Lennon’s son Julian, 61, reveals second cancer scare: ‘Fingers crossed’
“Life’s Fragile Moments.”“My lovely dermatologist [was] the one who caught and operated on my mole skin cancer a few years ago, and literally saved my life,” he wrote as the caption of the post, which included several black-and-white photos before and after the operation.“Anyway, after having just finished GMA, I received a message from Dr Tess, with some urgency to return to Los Angeles, as I had two locations on my skin, shoulder and forearm, one of which was melanoma, that should be operated on asap!!” Lennon explained.“So instead of going home to put my Christmas tree up and happily finish the year off, relaxing at home, I flew directly back to Los Angeles, after all my work in New York was done, and went directly from LAX airport, to surgery.”Lennon shared that the operation was successful; however, he’s unsure if the biopsy results will arrive before Christmas.He thanked his doctors “for being able to coordinate this surgery at such short notice, but for once again, hopefully saving my life.”“One can never be too confident in circumstances like this, but we all believe that Dr Tim has saved the day… So fingers crossed for now.”Lennon encouraged his followers to get checked out.“It only takes a short while to do so, and you may just be saving your own life, at the end of the day,” he said, “so please, for the sake of yourself, your family and friends just go to your [doctor] and do what must be done,” he wrote.“I love life and I want to live for a very long time and this is one way, and a choice, that could determine your future.”In 2020, Lennon revealed he had a mole on his head removed after a biopsy showed it was cancerous.Earlier this week, photos circulated of Lennon and his brother, Sean, 49, hanging out at

Lil Wayne, Chris Brown and Alice In Chains among artists who reportedly used COVID grant for parties, travel and luxury items
Lil Wayne, Chris Brown and Alice in Chains are reportedly among the artists who spent US tax-payer funded COVID relief grants on luxury items, travel, and parties.The funding, called the Shuttered Venue Operators Grant, was signed into law by President Donald Trump in 2020, and aimed to subsidise musicians and venues who were impacted by pandemic-related closures.Now, a new report from Business Insider has found that a handful of big artists, including Wayne, Brown and Alice in Chains claimed millions from the grant before spending it in lavish ways.The publication reveals that Wayne received $8.9million from the tax-payer-funded grant, spending over $1.3million on private-jet flights and over $460,000 on clothes and accessories, including many from luxury brands like Gucci and Balenciaga.The rapper reportedly put $175,000 towards “a music festival promoting his marijuana brand, GKUA” as well as “flights and luxury hotel rooms for women whose connection to Lil Wayne’s touring operation was unclear, including a waitress at a Hooters-type restaurant and a porn actress.”Insider also alleges that Wayne claimed $88,000 for a concert in Coachella, California that he didn’t end up performing at. They report that, when reaching out to him via text to comment, Wayne responded with “a sexually explicit overture to a reporter and did not respond to questions.”Elsewhere, the artist and athlete management firm NKSFB received at least $207million in grant money, of which they took $7million.
