Kelly Clarkson ‘devastated to have to postpone' her Las Vegas residency

Kelly Clarkson, shown here performing in 2023, says she was 'devastated to have to postpone' her Las Vegas residency. (via CNN Newsource) Kelly Clarkson fans aren't the only ones saddened by her latest news. The singer and talk-show host was set to kick off 'Kelly Clarkson: Studio Sessions – The Las Vegas Residency' last Friday but postponed the day of the show. 'We have been working 24/7 to make Studio Sessions the most intimate and extraordinary experience with and for my incredible fans,' Clarkson wrote in a statement shared on social media. 'I am beyond grateful that you always show up for me and I am devastated to have to postpone tonight and tomorrow's opening at Caesars.' 'The prep and rehearsals have taken a toll on my voice,' Clarkson added. 'I want the shows to be perfect for y'all and I need to protect myself from doing serious damage so I am taking this weekend and next week to rest up so that we can deliver what you all deserve,' she wrote. 'The show is truly incredible. The musicians and singers are outstanding, and I want us all to start out strong. I can't wait to be back next weekend and show y'all what we've been working on.' The last minute cancellation reminded some of when singer Adele did the same with her Vegas residency in 2022, attributing the 'delays' at the time to members of her crew having Covid. That was on the mind of one supporter who commented on Clarkson's post, 'when Adele cancelled, we still had an amazing time. Respect for taking care of yourself.' By Lisa Respers France, CNN

Pearl Jam drummer Matt Cameron leaving the band after almost three decades

Pearl Jam drummer Matt Cameron said Monday that he's leaving the band after nearly 30 years. The 62-year-old Cameron announced his departure in a social media post. 'After 27 fantastic years, I have taken my final steps down the drum riser for the mighty Pearl Jam,' Cameron said. 'Much love and respect to Jeff, Ed, Mike and Stone for inviting me into the band in 1998 and for giving me the opportunity of a lifetime, filled with friendships, artistry, challenges and laughter.' Cameron didn't give a reason for his departure. 'Matt Cameron has been a singular and true powerhouse of a musician and drummer. He has propelled the last 27 years of Pearl Jam live shows and studio recordings. It was a deeply important chapter for our group and we wish him well always,' Pearl Jam members said in a statement posted to the band's social media accounts. They made no mention of a replacement. Welcome to the tribute band era, where the covers are as good as the real thing Cameron, who played drums for Soundgarden for more than a decade before joining Pearl Jam, was not a founding member of the band and didn't play drums for the early albums that made them rock superstars. But he provided some much-needed stability at the drum kit after the band had gone through four others since its inception. He first joined in 1998 as a temporary replacement for Jack Irons, playing on a long tour before making his studio debut with the group on 2000's Binaural. He just finished a yearlong tour with the band in support of its 12th studio album, Dark Matter. Cameron was born and raised in San Diego before moving to Seattle shortly before its music scene became a global phenomenon. He played in proto-grunge band Skin Yard before joining Soundgarden. He did double duty with Pearl Jam and a reunited Soundgarden from 2010 to 2017.
