In a recent interview with Spanish newspaper El Mundo, former Smiths singer Morrissey has revealed that the cancellation of dates on his two most recent North American tours were due to four cancer scares.

??"They have scraped cancer cells four times already," said the singer, but also - quite nonchalantly - added, "...but whatever, if I die, then I die. If I don't, then I dont."??

Morrissey is currently touring Europe, despite the fact that his doctors have 'cautioned' him not to.

??Morrissey's latest, World Peace is None of Your Business, was released July 15, 2014 through Harvest Records. ??
