Some blogs are now reporting that she believed she developed lung cancer due to inhaling 9/11 dust. Now that makes a lot more sense. Because, you know, she was an oncologist as well as an internationally popular singer!

I agree completely. Utter nonsense. If it were remotely true, ****, everyone in NYC would be on their death beds (including Stevie Nicks who was also there on 9/11).
