Mexican Superstar Luis Miguel Is Reportedly Battling Hearing Condition Tinnitus.

The singer's lawyers recently disclosed the health issue in court papers relating to his ongoing legal battle with former tour agent William Brockhaus, who is suing Miguel for $2.1 million (£1.3 million), amid allegations of breach of contract.

Reports suggest Miguel was handed a subpoena to face the claims in court, but he skipped the hearing as he is seeking treatment for the permanent ringing in his ears.

Brockhaus sued the star in an El Paso, Texas court earlier this year (15), claiming he was never compensated for helping to organise shows and reduce touring costs for Miguel after he was hired in July, 2012.

The 45 year old has yet to comment on the tinnitus news, but he isn't the only famous musician to reportedly struggle with the hearing problem - former Oasis rocker Noel Gallagher, The Who star Pete Townshend and Canadian singer/songwriter Grimes have also battled the condition.

Oh my God I remember Luis Miguel from when I was a kid...

I didn't know he was still touring... I am sorry for him.. :-(

Also Chris Martin, the coldplay singer has it... I wish they would speak out more about it... I went to a party last week and there was a band playing at insanely loud volume... I had musician earplugs and way away from the speakers and only stayed for a short time but how the heck other people can tolerate such volume without earplugs is just beyond me...

Yet none of them would do anything about it!

Actually a famous DJ Eddie Temple Morris has done a lot to raise awareness.

What about others?
If all those celebrities had cancer they would be pouring money into research!
Tinnitus?
Nah, who cares!

Comparing Coldplay's Chris Martin and "famous" DJ Eddy Temple Morris is like comparing apples and oranges.

Coldplay has 38 million fans for their facebook. "Famous" DJ Eddy Temple Morris has less than 4,500.

Conclusion (if not already apparent): Chris Martin could plant an awareness bomb should he want to. Eddy Temple Morris not so much.

There's a new NETFLIX Series "Luis Miguel".

In Season 2 he starts having tinnitus... Good exposure about this condition.

Oddly enough, his Wikipedia entry doesn't mention tinnitus:

It does not list any health conditions. I would only find the absence of a reference to tinnitus odd if this Wikipedia entry listed other health concerns.
