Filipp Kirkorov may lose his voice

Renowned performer Filipp Kirkorov is working himself to the bone, actively touring with his show "Ya" and recording new songs. The excessive strain has inevitably taken a toll on the artist's health.

Before a performance in Latvia, the artist felt unwell, developing a cough and a sore throat, while his voice turned hoarse. Kirkorov was forced to seek medical assistance.

The doctors' diagnosis left the performer in a state of shock. According to the medical team, in addition to chronic bronchitis, Kirkorov has been diagnosed with vocal cord inflammation, which could lead to loss of voice if the artist does not take his health seriously.

Kirkorov is prohibited from straining his vocal cords, putting his tour at risk of cancellation. It is not ruled out that the remaining concerts will be performed to a full or partial backing track.
