Max George Cleared to Perform After Pre-Tour Arrhythmia Scare and Heart MRI

Doctors cleared the Wanted singer to perform following a heart MRI taken 48 hours before the U.S. tour.

Overview

  • Max George said he was taken to A&E twice in one week for arrhythmias just days before the U.S. leg of The Wanted 2.0 tour.
  • A full heart MRI two days before the first date led clinicians to approve his return to the stage after what he called a few tweaks.
  • He and bandmate Siva Kaneswaran moved ahead with scheduled U.S. shows, with dates listed in Orlando, Las Vegas, Miami, Los Angeles, Phoenix, and Atlantic City.
  • The episode follows a pacemaker implantation late last year and a subsequent corrective operation that contributed to a postponed Manchester concert in February.
  • George shared the latest update on Instagram, and girlfriend Maisie Smith has said he still has hard days but is getting stronger.
