Billy Joel has undergone brain surgery to treat a condition he was diagnosed with in 2025. The singer revealed on SiriusXM’s Billy Joel channel Wednesday that the procedure helped relieve some of the symptoms he experienced. Joel explained he decided to have the surgery after noticing issues with his balance.
He described feeling like he was "rocking on a boat," a sensation that prompted him to seek medical advice. The singer did not specify the type of surgery, but confirmed he is now doing better.
