PARIS — French rock legend Johnny Hallyday had a botched operation in France and is in a medically induced coma in a Los Angeles hospital as he recovers from surgery to fix the damage, his producer said.
Hallyday, 66, is expected to recover, producer Jean-Claude Camus said.
Hallyday is France’s biggest rock star, though little- known outside of Europe. Beyond his music, the Belgian-born Hallyday — born Jean-Philippe Smet — is known for his glitz, amorous affairs and motorcycles.
The Los Angeles operation was to fix back trouble from a Nov. 26 operation in Paris for a herniated disc.
