Music icon Steven Tyler is currently recovering from a vocal injury he sustained in 2023. The rockstar, known for his unforgettable performances as the lead singer of Aerosmith, recently provided an update on his healing process while hosting his 5th annual Jam for Janie Grammys viewing party.

Despite his throat still being on the mend, Tyler expressed gratitude for the support he has received from the girls at Janie's Fund, a nonprofit organization he established to help girls who have experienced abuse and neglect. In an inspiring display of resilience, he mentioned how several benefactors wrote him letters to lift his spirits during his recovery.

During the event held at the Hollywood Palladium, Tyler shared some heartfelt messages from the girls. Their words of encouragement resonated deeply with him. 'We've got your back,' one girl assured him, while another emphasized his potential and encouraged him to keep pushing forward, even when faced with challenges.

Tyler's daughter, Mia Tyler, revealed that her father is doing much better, although he isn't exactly following doctor's orders. According to her, he has a tendency to talk when he shouldn't, prompting her to remind him to conserve his voice.

The vocal injury occurred during a performance with Aerosmith in September, leading the band to postpone the remaining shows on their farewell tour. Initially, the injury was thought to be less severe, but further examination revealed that Tyler had also fractured his larynx, necessitating ongoing care.

Expressing his disappointment at not being able to perform alongside his bandmates and The Black Crowes, Tyler assured fans that Aerosmith would return to the stage as soon as possible. In the meantime, he has been keeping himself busy in the studio, as evidenced by a photo he shared on Facebook, showing him working on the remixing of Aerosmith tracks.

Despite the challenges and setbacks, Steven Tyler remains resilient and optimistic. His dedication to his craft and his commitment to supporting those in need through Janie's Fund is truly admirable. As fans eagerly await his return to the stage, they can take solace in knowing that Tyler's spirit and passion for music continue to inspire and uplift.
