Coincidentally, I just happened to read the following quote from Andrews in a Reader's Digest article: "I had to have an intracordal cyst removed, which was like a blister inside my vocal cord. And I wasn't quite sure if I would ever sing again...By now I'd learned that my voice was not going to get much better. Oh, speaking-wise it was fine, but singing was no longer something I could seriously consider, with the exception of how I sort of sing-speak "Your Crowning Glory" in PRINCESS DIARIES 2." As I understand it, Andrews' unfortunate surgery left her bereft of voice. She sued the doctors and/or hospital and settled out of court for a rather substantial sum.
I don't know anything other then what was posted above but - Her birthday is the same as mine!!!
As someone told me lately: "Ev'ryone deserves the chance to fly!"...
He's there, the Phantom of the Opera!...
I dreamed a dream in time gone bye...
This is the moment! My final test!...
PS. Couldn't choose just one :-)
As tragic as it is, I don't think Julie Andrews will ever sing in concert again. Her voice was completely destroyed in that surgery, and it's a great loss to musical theatre!
