World-famous singer 'is not retiring from music' because of son's cancer despite recent reports
On Friday, the Daily Mail published a new interview where Michael Bublé seemingly hinted at his departure from music. Two days later, his publicist corrected the rumors.
Liz Rozenberg insisted that the musician’s statement was taken out of context. She also revealed that he wasn’t going anywhere.
Michael Bublé’s publicist, Liz Rozenberg, said the singer “is absolutely not retiring” from music. She added that “He is not going anywhere.”
An interview with the Daily Mail started the rumors that Bublé, 43, was leaving the industry. It’s alleged that the singer said:
“I don't have the stomach for it any more. The celebrity narcissism.”

The two parents also have two other children Elias, 2, and Vida, 2-months-old. In July, the musician admitted that he had considered leaving music due to his son’s illness.
At the time, Bublé said:
“I truly thought I’d never come back to music. Family is what matters. The health of my children is number one. The relationship with my family, my wife, my faith -- all of it is easily number one."
This year it was announced that his son was in remission. The singer is set to release his new album. “Love” on November 16.
