Announcing the second show on Monday afternoon, Gigs in Scotland wrote: 'Bold pop hooks, sex positivity, honest songwriting, and a heavy dose of glitter make up the world of Chappell Roan, the multi-faceted pop artist taking the world by storm.
'The LA-based singer, songwriter, and performer exploded into stardom with her 2023 debut studio album, The Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess, a technicolor tale of self-discovery that landed on multiple year-end lists (Rolling Stone, Pitchfork, Billboard, TIME, more).'

Last month, Roan replaced herself at the top of the singles charts, the Official Charts Company said.
The singer, 27, whose real name is Kayleigh Rose Amstutz, secured top spot with her new country single The Giver.
Roan's first foray into the county genre replaced her song Pink Pony Club as UK number one.
'We've never done a country song and I have such a special place in my heart for country music,' Roan wrote in an Instagram post.
'I grew up listening to it every morning and afternoon on my school bus and had it swirling around me at bonfires, grocery stores and karaoke bars.'

UK punk band blasted for ‘Death to IDF' chant during Glastonbury festival set as police investigate
Another UK band has come under fire for its 'threatening' comments against Israel's ongoing war in Gaza — stirring up a frenzy at a music festival Saturday. English-based punk duo Bob Vylan whipped the crowd at England's annual Glastonbury Music Festival into a furor, and led the massive audience in gang chants of 'Free, free Palestine' and 'Death, death to the IDF' in referencing the Israeli Defense Forces. Police are said to be investigating the band's performance, Deadline reported. Advertisement 4 Bob Vylan performed Saturday at the Glastonbury Music Festival. WireImage Cops are going over video of the band's set to see if the group chants involved any criminality. 'We are aware of the comments made by acts on the West Holts Stage at Glastonbury Festival this afternoon,' reads a social media post from Avon and Somerset police. Advertisement 'Video evidence will be assessed by officers to determine whether any offences may have been committed that would require a criminal investigation,' the post added. 4 Cops are going over video of the band's set to see if the group chants involved any criminality. AFP via Getty Images Bob Vylan wasn't alone in its criticism of the Israeli offensive against the notorious terror group, Hamas. Irish outfit Kneecap got in trouble during a London show when singer Mo Chara shouted out Hamas and Hezbollah — 'up Hamas, up Hezbollah' — and allegedly raised the Hezbollah flag, leading to his arrest under the Terrorism Act. Advertisement Bobby Vylan, one half of Bob Vylan, similarly urged the crowd to chant along with him on Saturday. 4 It didn't take much to get the crowd chanting. AFP via Getty Images BBC, which broadcasts the three-day festival, announced it will not be replaying Bob Vylan's 'deeply offensive' set. A spokesperson for Lisa Nandy, England's Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport, said she 'strongly' condemns the 'threatening comments made by Bob Vylan at Glastonbury.' Advertisement Nandy's office wants 'an urgent explanation' from the BBC regarding what sort of 'due diligence it carried out ahead of the Bob Vylan performance.' 4 Bob Vylan first started back in 2017. Bob Vylan/Facebook In a statement, the BBC acknowledged 'Some of the comments made during Bob Vylan's set were deeply offensive.' 'During this live stream on iPlayer, which reflected what was happening on stage, a warning was issued on screen about the very strong and discriminatory language,' the BBC added. Hamas killed 1,200 unsuspecting Israelis on Oct. 7, 2023, and took another 250 hostage in brutal fashion. Some 50 Israeli hostages remain captive in Gaza, fewer than half of them are believed to still be alive.

LSU quarterback Garrett Nussmeier, Arch Manning star in Raising Cane's ad
'At least your dad didn't move to Louisiana and start calling plays' This is a fun one. Louisiana football royalty descended on Thibodeaux this week for the Manning Passing Academy, with legendary New Orleans Saints quarterback Archie Manning joining his sons Peyton, Eli, and Cooper and grandson Arch for an opportunity to mentor the next generation of passers. On the way, several members of the Manning family stopped by the Baton Rouge-based Raising Cane's to put in a celebrity "shift" and pulled into the drive-thru to cut a commercial. You can see it for yourself here, but they weren't alone. Raising Cane's founder Todd Graves, a popular pick among fans to buy the Saints should owner Gayle Benson ever put them up for sale, sat in the back seat with LSU Tigers quarterback Garrett Nussmeier. Grandfather Archie questioned grandson Arch as to whether his Super Bowl-winning uncles Peyton and Eli were going too hard on him; the younger Manning and Nussmeier roomed together this week as counselors at the clinic. "Tell me about it. At least your dad didn't move to Louisiana and start calling plays," quipped Nussmeier, son of new Saints offensive coordinator Doug Nussmeier. That's when Arch's father Cooper leaned in from the drive-thru window to remind his son to order with a "please" and "thank you," while telling Nussmeier that his father already called in his order: "He doesn't trust your judgment." Rookie Saints quarterback Tyler Shough is also working at the event as a counselor, and he's the first to do so after going pro. With almost 1,500 high school quarterbacks in attendance, the Mannings could use all the help they can get. As for Graves? Between all this high-maintenance bickering among quarterbacks, he joked that he needs "to start hanging out with linemen." We're guessing Erik McCoy and Cameron Jordan would be more than happy to show him around town.
