Charles Aznavour fractures arm in fall

French-Armenian singer-songwriter Charles Aznavour has fractured his arm in a fall at his home, his press attache said today, adding that the 93-year-old was not seriously hurt.

"It's nothing serious. Charles Aznavour fractured his humerus (upper arm)" in the fall at his house at Mouries near Arles in southeastern France, the attache told AFP.

Dubbed the French Sinatra, the legendary crooner and prolific writer will turn 94 later this month, but continues to tour despite his age.

Last month, Aznavour was forced to cancel a show in Saint Petersburg after suffering back strain during a rehearsal.
