Shirley Manson, the legendary lead singer of the band Garbage, has recently opened up about a major surgery she underwent. The 58-year-old rockstar took to social media to share the news with her fans, posting a photo from her hospital bed where she flashed a peace sign while hooked up to medical equipment.
While Shirley did not disclose the specifics of the procedure, she captioned the post with a dramatic statement: "She's alive." Despite the gravity of the situation, she appeared to be in good spirits in the picture. After returning home, she continued to keep her fans updated on her recovery, sharing a reflective message alongside a photo with her furry companion.
In her post, she wrote, "I'm choosing to remind myself, as I lie here trying to recover from major surgery, that there are still beautiful things in the world." Her caption for the photo was once again, "She's alive." Shirley also expressed her deep gratitude to those who showed their support during her recovery, stating, "I cling on to their kindness and thoughtfulness and their care." She also admitted to spending a lot of time in bed "doomscrolling."
Shirley Manson's illustrious rock career has spanned decades, and she continues to be the driving force behind Garbage, a band she co-founded in the early 90s with Duke Erikson, Steve Marker, and Butch Vig. Their unique blend of alternative rock and electronic elements has given them hits like "Stupid Girl" and "Only Happy When It Rains." After a hiatus in 2005, they regrouped in 2007 and released their seventh studio album, "No Gods No Masters," in 2021. To celebrate their career, they released a comprehensive Anthology album in October 2022.
Aside from her music career, Shirley has also explored acting, making an appearance in the popular TV series "Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles" in 2008 as the liquid metal T-1001 Terminator named Catherine Weaver.
Born in Edinburgh to a singer mother, Muriel, and a university lecturer father, John, Shirley has been married twice. Her first marriage to artist Eddie Farrell lasted from 1996 to 2003. In 2010, she tied the knot with sound engineer Billy Bush in Los Angeles, where she continues to reside with him.
