Donna Summer
9/11 Gave Me Cancer

Exclusive

Donna Summer was convinced -- inhaling toxic air after 9/11 gave her the lung cancer that eventually killed her ... TMZ has learned.

Sources close to the singer tell TMZ what we were hearing this morning -- that Donna was in New York City during 9/11, living at an apartment near Ground Zero.

Donna became almost paranoid about breathing the air, which was heavy with a rancid odor. 

In the months and years following 9/11, Donna's feelings intensified.  One source tells us when he was around Donna, she would constantly spray some sort of disinfectant in the air.  Deney Terrio, the host of "Dance Fever," tells us ... when he was around Donna post 9/11, she would hang silk sheets in her dressing room to prevent dust from coming in.

And one source says ... Donna, who was a fervent practicing Christian, believed 9/11 was an attack on Christianity and in some metaphysical way Christians like her were targets.  She somehow felt that her illness was a byproduct of the attack.

I always liked her voice. Most female vocalists disagree with my ears somehow, but Donna's voice had a subtle ease, even on the top notes where most vocalists get screechy. Disco wasn't my favorite style, but, being a young teenybopper at the time, I had fun with it.

So sad she died so young.

Not familiar with her music. Sounds like disco era music. Before my time :) I was an 80's and 90's child.

Always sad to see such a strong spirit leave us. Clearly she was a powerful manifester.
