Stevie Nicks adds solo Northern California show after canceling tour with Billy Joel
The former Fleetwood Mac singer has extended her summer 2025 tour and is now scheduled for a concert at Sacramento's Golden 1 Center on Oct. 4, the same night that she was meant to play the now canceled show at Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara with Billy Joel.
Compensating for those canceled dates, Nicks added a total of eight new concerts, including performances at Brooklyn's Barclays Center (Aug. 8), Portland's MODA Center (Oct. 1) and Harftord's PeoplesBank Arena (Oct. 25).
Ticket presales for all of Nicks' newly announced shows start at 10 a.m. Wednesday, June 18. The general sale begins at 10 a.m. Friday, June 20.
Nicks revealed that she's working on a new solo project inspired by her experiences with various men in her life during the Pollstar Awards in April.
'I'm not pulling any punches for probably the first time in my life. They are not airy-fairy songs,' she said about the album during the event at the Beverly Hilton Hotel in Los Angeles. 'They're real stories of memories of mine of fantastic men.'
A release date has yet to be announced for the untitled project.
The singer also revealed during an interview with GQ that she has been working on music with Los Angeles pop-rock trio Haim, though she never confirmed if it's for her forthcoming album.
It is unclear whether Nicks plans to perform any new material on her tour.
Nicks had been touring with Joel since 2023, before the 'Piano Man' singer's recent diagnosis prompted him to pull out of a total of 17 dates, including shows with Rock & Roll Hall of Famers Sting and Rod Stewart.
Joel's team said that his condition, which is caused by excess cerebrospinal fluid, was worsening with live performances and leading to various hearing, vision and balance problems.
'Under his doctor's instructions, Billy is undergoing specific physical therapy and has been advised to refrain from performing during this recovery period,' read a statement shared to his Instagram

BBC to stop broadcasting 'high risk' performances live after Bob Vylan Glastonbury row
The BBC has said it will no longer live broadcast "high risk" performances after the controversy over Bob Vylan's Glastonbury gig. It comes after it showed the punk-rap duo leading the crowd in chants of "death to the IDF (Israel Defence Forces)". The BBC said it was "clear that errors were made" before and . It admitted the band were judged "high risk" during an assessment of all acts at , but deemed suitable for live streaming with "the use of language or content warnings" . "This was clearly not the case," the BBC said. The broadcaster said Bob Vylan's show was monitored as it went out and "a number of issues were escalated". "Warnings appeared on the stream on two occasions and the editorial team took the decision not to cut the feed. This was an error," it said. The BBC said director-general Tim Davie was informed and ordered that none of the show should feature in any further coverage, such as appearing on demand on iPlayer. After a , some of which suggested Mr Davie should resign, the broadcaster said music performances it deems high risk won't be broadcast or streamed live any more. Editorial policy support will also be available on site at major events, while more "detailed, practical" guidance will be given on when to take down a live feed. The BBC also suggested action would be taken against staff who failed to pull the plug on Bob Vylan. "Given the failings that have been acknowledged we are taking actions to ensure proper accountability for those found to be responsible for those failings in the live broadcast," said the statement. The broadcaster apologised to the Jewish community and said it deeply regretted "such offensive and deplorable behaviour appeared on the BBC". "We are also unequivocal that there can be no place for antisemitism at, or on, the BBC," it added. Bob Vylan said on Instagram this week that they were "not for the death of Jews, Arabs or any other race or group of people" but were for the "dismantling of a violent military machine". They said were a "distraction from the story" in Gaza and whatever "sanctions" they receive would also be a distraction. Avon and Somerset police have launched an investigation into the comments made by the group.

Revealed: How Love Island's Megan and Conor knew each other before the show, as she reveals secret connection
Former Love Island star Megan Forte Clarke has revealed that she and Conor Philips actually knew each other before appearing on the show. Speaking in an interview, the 24-year-old from Dublin said: "On day one [of Love Island] Conor told me that he followed me on Instagram four years ago." She added to heatworld: "I never followed him back. Since coming out I've seen that he follows me on TikTok and he's commented on one of my TikToks. Again, I've not followed him back or even realised he'd commented on one. It's nice that he's still trying four years later, it's worked out for him now I suppose." Megan has since followed Conor back, telling Cosmopolitan UK: "I've already given him the follow... I'm like Instagram is looking good. I can approve of this." Megan's revalation comes after fans suspected that the duo may have already dated outside of the show. On Friday night's episode (27th June), Megan was dumped from the villa after receiving the fewest votes from the public. As she packed her bags, they shared an emotional goodbye and Conor could be seen crying, which some thought was a little dramatic considering they'd not known each other for long. However, a fan revealed "evidence" which they believe proves Megan and Conor knew each other before the show and even dated. One fan found photos of Conor and Megan out at similar venues. "Photo of Megan and Conor at the same place btw, proving they were together in real life,' the photos are captioned on TikTok. However one fan pointed out in the comments: "They may have been in the same place, doesn't mean they knew each other. I'm sure at some point, we've all been in the same place as somebody we met later in life." Another fan shared a photo of a picture from Conor's Instagram of him with a girl, who looks very similar to Megan with the caption: "Biggest plot of 2025... Conor and Megan are dating in real life and have been planning this this whole time." However, it turns out that it's not actually Megan in the photo, but one of Conor's friends who goes by the name Eleanor. New episodes of Love Island air on weekdays and Sundays at 9pm on ITV2.

Celebrities React To Diddy Trial Verdict
On July 2, a Manhattan federal jury delivered a mixed verdict in Sean 'Diddy' Combs's sex-trafficking trial. Combs was found guilty on two out of five charges: two counts of transportation to engage in prostitution. Each guilty count carries a maximum sentence of 10 years, so the music mogul now faces up to 20 years in prison. Combs was acquitted of the most serious charges: one count of racketeering conspiracy and two counts of sex trafficking by force, fraud, or coercion. He had pleaded 'not guilty' to all charges. Actor Mariska Hargitay reshared an Instagram post from Glamour magazine that critiqued Combs. The first slide read, 'We won't forget what we saw you did to Cassie on that video,' referring to the 2016 footage of Combs physically assaulting Cassie. Mariska then reposted another slide that said, 'Combs joins a long line of powerful and famous men who have allegedly engaged in abuse, yet faced minimal consequence.' Aubrey O'Day, who was previously signed to Combs's Bad Boy Records label, shared her live reaction to the verdict on Instagram. 'Oh, this makes me physically ill. Cassie probably feels so horrible. I'm gonna vomit,' she said. She later shared a longer, written statement that read: 'I'm still unpacking the magnitude of it all. The cultural weight of this decision is immeasurable. It is heartbreaking to witness how many lives have been impacted by their experiences with Sean Combs -- only for those stories to fall short in the eyes of a judge. I can only hope these jurors never have to watch someone they love endure what so many survivors have described.' Rosie O'Donnell was also among those condemning the verdict of the trial. 'I guess a jury just never wants to believe that a woman stays because of power and coercion- wow - they just think women stay because what? money - fame - 'they love the abuse' - what a fucking joke - this decision got me angry #cassie,' she wrote on Instagram. Meanwhile, Evan Rachel Wood said of the verdict, 'There is no consent in a domestic violence relationship. Period. Once the threat of violence is there, you comply. You do not consent. It is self preservation and survival. It is not freely or willingly given. It is forced and coerced out of you. We clearly have a long way to go in our understanding of this.' Christina Ricci shared a sweet message of support towards Cassie, writing on Instagram: 'Sending so much love and respect to @cassie today. She is an inspiration and a hero and I stand with her.' Moreover, Cassie's lawyer, Douglas H. Wigdor, released a statement to the press on July 2 after the news of Combs's verdict broke. 'This entire criminal process started when our client Cassie Ventura had the courage to file her civil complaint in November 2023,' he wrote. 'Although the jury did not find Combs guilty of sex trafficking Cassie beyond a reasonable doubt, she paved the way for a jury to find him guilty of transportation to engage in prostitution.' 'By coming forward with her experience, Cassie has left an indelible mark on both the entertainment industry and the fight for justice. We must repeat — with no reservation — that we believe and support our client who showed exemplary courage throughout this trial,' the statement read. 'She displayed unquestionable strength and brought attention to the realities of powerful men in our orbit and the misconduct that has persisted for decades without repercussion. This case proved that change is long overdue, and we will continue to fight on behalf of survivors,' Wigdor added.
