Anastacia: I thought I had early onset dementia and a brain tumour

Global music icon Anastacia sits down for a candid, heart-to-heart discussion about her extraordinary life, from her humble beginnings working in a New York bakery and dancing in 90s music videos to becoming an overnight sensation at 31.

With her trademark warmth, wit, and unfiltered honesty, Anastacia opens up about surviving two life-altering breast cancer diagnoses – revealing the surprising way a routine cosmetic procedure saved her life – and shares her raw experience with menopause, zero-level hormone depletion, and reclaiming her power in her 50s. Plus, she reminisces about her legendary brush with Steven Spielberg, performing for Prince William and Prince Harry at the Concert for Diana, her tight-knit friendship with Michelle Visage, and why she’s happily treating her career as the true love of her life.
