Frankie Valli sparked a public wave of worry after appearing disoriented and frail during a recent gig — but he’s clapping back, insisting nobody’s twisting his arm to perform, and he’s on stage by choice.
The 90-year-old icon’s clearly fed up with the online chatter, even facing accusations of elder abuse against his team. But he’s setting the record straight — it’s all him, and he feels blessed he’s still in the game and doing what he loves at his age.
He told People the accusations crack him up … reiterating on his own terms, “Nobody has ever made me do anything I didn’t want to do.”
Frankie’s all about that Four Seasons magic … saying as long as the fans keep showing up, he’s in it for the long haul, promising to be “like that bunny on TV, just keeps going and going and going. Chasing the music.”

There’s been a huge concern for Frankie, with some videos showing him appearing to lip-sync to his own music onstage, and fans have been commenting about how exhausted he looks.
But the music legend’s made it clear he’s not backing down — he’s full steam ahead, with his tour running all the way through April 2025.

5:20 PM PT — A rep for Frankie Valli tells TMZ … Frankie is saddened by these unfortunate events and appreciates that his privacy will be respected as he works out these family issues.
Frankie Valli’s son is accusing his other son of breaking into their father’s home and threatening to harm both of them … and now, he wants court-ordered protection for both and his famous father.
The singer’s 29-year-old son Emilio just filed for a temporary restraining order in Los Angeles against his 36-year-old brother Francesco — claiming his older sibling attempted to bust into Frankie’s property last week … only to go on and allegedly hurl threats at them.

Per the docs, obtained by TMZ, Emilio claims he and Frankie have been having this issue with Francesco for months — explaining their dad provides financial support for his boy … even though Emilio alleges drug abuse against his bro, and says he’s gotten desperate lately.
Emilio claims Frankie has recently cut off Francesco … and that led to him allegedly trying to break into the home on April 5 — during which Emilio claims Francesco threatened to harm and kill both Emilio and Frankie … which he says has left their dad fearful for his life.

Emilio goes on to claim in the docs that he believes Francesco is pawning off their dad’s stuff in order to score opiates — and he suggests that might be why he showed up to the house.
In the paperwork, he goes on to say this is an alleged pattern of behavior by Francesco that’s getting more erratic … and they need a judge to step in and grant them a forcefield … which Emilio is hoping will keep Francesco away from them, and the property.

We’ve reached out to Frankie for comment … no word back yet. A judge has yet to rule.
