On a recent appearance on The Ellen Show, Black Eyed Peas member apl.de.ap (real name Allan Pineda Lindo, Jr.) admitted that he had Nystagmus, an involuntary eye movement condition that could cause reduced or impaired vision. He explained,

“I was born with nystagmus…..I want to encourage other kids with disabilities…you don’t have to give up your dreams just because you got a disability.”

The star admitted that he had to learn the dance moves before hand for live shows and just flow with the beat onstage, also a member of the band has to walk him around the stage so he can get a feel of the setting. Now that’s dedication. He also adds that, “since my eyes are bad I guess my sense of awareness got stronger…We got Apl sections, we got bright arrows.” Sheesh more power to him!
