Vince Neil Diagnosed With ‘Abdominal Obesity’

MÖTLEY CRÜE‘s troubled lead vocalist, Vince Neil, 62, has purportedly been diagnosed with a fairly common health condition in America that is now verging on an epidemic level all across the USA, called ‘Abdominal Obesity’, believe it or not.

Neil who has been desperately trying to shed more pounds before his band returns to North America for a second round of their comeback tour in 2024, is now being told his gut is his biggest problem, which has been exacerbated by his drinking binges and overeating, that all has played a role in his horrid vocal performances at concerts the past couple of years. As the story goes, after having been admitted into a Texas drug and alcohol abuse facility last year by his friend Ozzy, Neil was also complaining about stomach and hip pain that he was experiencing. A source inside the Crue’s camp has confirmed that the singer is indeed taking the diagnosis very seriously.

Once the shining light of glam metal music, the rotund singer has continued on a downward spiral in recent years, including falling off the stage and breaking his ribs in late 2021 at a solo gig.

Neil was injured after falling off stage during a performance with his band on Oct. 15, 2021, at the Monsters on the Mountain festival in Pigeon Forge, Tenn.

This mishap is now being blamed on Vince’s #1 enemy in life: his enormous belly. Although, just prior to his epic fall from grace, the Crue’s ex-limo driver, Al Bowman, confirmed the worst for fans… that Neil is drinking himself to death.

Abuse of alcohol and digesting way too much food without any exercise can certainly lead to this kind of serious health condition. Let’s face the facts, Neil has done nothing to get in better physical shape as the band’s manager, Allen Kovac, promised, other than try a goofy fat burning treatment. It’s now clear to see that Vince’s over-sized stomach is a much bigger issue than even his most devoted fans want to admit.

The two most common ways to measure abdominal obesity are waist circumference and waist size compared to hip size, also known as the waist-to-hip ratio. Neil is rocking what is called the ‘Dunlop’ and no, it has nothing to do with racing cars.

One can sometimes say of a person’s large stomach, “it done lopped over yer belt!”

An obese stomach sufferer can easily lose their balance at times, when others who are slender do not have these issues, and this condition relegates even a 62-year-old like Neil to be in the same shape as an 80-year-old suffering from arthritis.
