Nile Rodgers gets cancer all-clear

Earlier this evening (July 29) Chic frontman Nile Rodgers confirmed that he has been given the all-clear after suffering from prostate cancer since 2010.

The 'Get Lucky' hitmaker took to his official Twitter page today and shared the amazing news with his fans around the world along with a snapshot from his doctor's examination room:

"Instead of showing gross internal video I'll show my doctor's fly examination room. I'M ALL CLEAR AGAIN!"

Back in March 2011 he received a clean bill of health, but he has been battling the disease again recently. When congratulated by one Twitter user, Rodgers admitted that while he is over the moon at the news he has to "rest after the medication".
