Manilow was slated to perform at the Grammys on Monday, but it remains "unclear" as to whether or not he will make it.

The singer recently talked about his final tour and insisted he wasn't retiring. Instead, he joked that he just wants less packing.

"I was in the middle of the last [tour], and I just wanted to know when 'Judge Judy' was on," Manilow said in a March 2015 interview with Steve Schonberg. "I just wanted my life back. I'm very grateful that I'm still able to tour, that there's still an audience out there for me, but you lose your life with touring."

Hopefully, he'll be back on the road singing about "Mandy" soon enough.
