Johnny Hallyday

French rock legend and film star Johnny Hallyday (1943) is at the moment in a medically induced coma, as he recovers from surgery to fix the damage of a botched operation for a slipped disc on 26 November. Hallyday fell seriously ill on Monday and was taken to Cedars Sinai hospital in Los Angeles, USA. There, doctors put him in a drug-induced coma as he recovered from two surgeries to deal with an infection allegedly stemming from an earlier Paris operation. He is expected to be brought out of the coma early next week. We hope you get well, Johnny.
