Legendary American singer Lionel Richie has reassured fans that he is doing well after undergoing a heart procedure nearly two months ago, as he made his return to the stage in Las Vegas.
The 77-year-old singer repeatedly told fans he was back during his performance at Wynn Las Vegas on Wednesday night.
Richie thanked his fans for their love and support during his recovery, assuring them that he was doing just fine.
The singer also showed his sense of humour, joking that he wanted to turn the concert into a celebration of his life and music, saying he should pay tribute to himself before someone else does.
During the performance, Richie took a short break after dancing on stage and joked that he needed electrolytes to keep his energy up.
He later returned to his piano and continued entertaining the crowd.
Richie underwent a heart procedure in September to treat atrial fibrillation, a condition that causes an irregular heartbeat.
His representative had earlier confirmed that the procedure went well, but the singer needed time to recover before returning to the stage.
Richie, who is known for hits such as Hello, All Night Long and Dancing in the ceiling says he is happy to be back performing for his fans.
