The Wiggles announced today that the Yellow Wiggle, Greg Page, will no longer be performing with them. This is due to an illness called orthostatic intolerance which he has been suffering for a while.
This is very sad for these huge children's entertainers. I'm sure he will be greatly missed by a lot of fans of all ages all around the world. Fortunately The Wiggles will continue as Sam Moran will now become the Yellow Wiggle. Will this be a trend in the future? When one Wiggle gets sick or too old to perform will they be replaced by another so the group can continue?
Groups such as The Wiggles and Hi-5 are great entertainers for children, and it's absolutely amazing that they are so successful. I went to a Hi-5 performance earlier this year and I loved it!
