Nile Rodgers has been given the all clear from cancer; he was diagnosed with the disease in 2010. Announcing his current test results on Twitter, he wrote: "Instead of showing gross internal video I'll show my doctor's fly examination room. I'M ALL CLEAR AGAIN!" However, Rogers later followed the tweet up with another one, which read: "I never celebrate much when I get an All Clear because in 6 months I'll go through the same drama." He added: "All clear is a lot better than the cancer has returned and it's spread."
