"Half of us are walking around with meningioma but you don't really know unless you happen to have an MRI," her rep said. "Crow has no symptoms and everything is fine. It was a random mention during the Vegas interview. It was not meant to alarm anyone. She is doing great and is healthy and happy."
Sheryl told the publication that she'd noticed some memory loss and decided to get an MRI in November to make sure everything was in tip-top shape.

"I was, like, 'See? I knew there was something wrong,'" she said. "I haven't really talked about it... But it's benign, so I don't have to worry about it. But it gives me a fit."
