The original lead singer and policeman from The Village People, Victor Willis, has been released from hospital following surgery on his vocal chords and has said that he could be able to get back to singing within three months. As previously reported, Willis was forced to cancel his planned tour and undergo surgery after doctors discovered nodules on his throat.
The singer's spokeswoman, Linda Smith, told reporters that his speaking voice "sounds almost normal" but he has been told by doctors not to sing for 90 days. Willis himself said in a statement: "I feel great and look forward to performing before the end of the year, but I can't say for sure".
