Tony Bennett is battle Alzheimer's.

According to People Magazine, Tony Bennett was diagnosed in 2016 with Alzheimer's and now is incapable of understanding the disease. He can still recognize friends and family and hasn't given up on his career. Music is keeping him on his toes and stimulates his brain. He keeps rehearsing and his pianist comes over twice a week and they do a 90 minute set. He is even releasing a second joint album with Lady Gaga this spring.

We love that Tony Bennet is still working on music and we are all wishing him well!
