NEIL'S GOING BELLY - UP!

Weighty health problems rock aging singer's world

- 

ROLY-POLY rocker Neil Young has gained a whopping 30 pounds in recent years, but the 79-year-old singer refuses to do anything about his blubbery bod even though he suffers from type 1 diabetes and agonizing arthritis, sources say.

These shocking photos exclusively obtained by GLOBE show the Heart of Gold warbler waddling around at a car repair shop on April 4 in Oxnard, Calif. The porky performer, who stands 6 feet tall, sported ripped jeans and a T-shirt stretched over his tremendous tummy.

“He’s got a big potbelly and clearly let himself go — and friends are worried,” an insider says.
