Country star shares personal message with fans after 'frustrating' sickness set back
Country singer Luke Bryan has shared a personal message with fans after suffering a 'frustrating' sickness set back. The 48-year-old star took to X (formerly known as Twitter) on Wednesday to offer a heartfelt message as he continues to recover from illness. 'What's up y'all? Hope everybody had a great 4th and I wanted to thank everybody for all the well wishes for the last few shows that I had to postpone and obviously cancel,' he said. 'I want to thank my buddy Eric Church for stepping in and helping out with me. 'It really, really gets frustrating getting sick like that and losing my voice and having to take a couple weekends off. 'But thank you guys for supporting me. I love y'all, and we'll see y'all in the shows to come. Love you.' The singer added: 'Huge thanks to my buddy Eric Church for stepping in last minute — and of course, putting on a kick-a** show like he always does.' It is not clear what illness Luke had but he now seems to be well on his way to recovery. Fellow singer Eric stepped in for Luke at Country Stampede in Bonner Springs, Kansas, on June 26, NebraskaLand Days in North Platte, Nebraska, on June 27, and Country Jam in Grand Junction, Colorado, on June 28, per Country Now. When he initially missed the shows, the star told fans his voice 'was just not there yet.' A few days earlier, Luke was able to perform in Rogers, Arkansas, but refunded everyone's tickets because he thought his voice wasn't at its best. 'I'm going to get real with y'all. This is the weirdest thing I've ever dealt with in my life,' he told the crowd. 'I cannot have my voice in this venue for some reason. It happens every time, I don't know why. 'But you guys keep showing up year after year to see me put on a show.' Bryan continued, 'I saw Luke Combs do this a couple years ago when he was having a weird night onstage and I said, "You know what? That's pretty cool." 'So I don't give a damn, I'm gonna refund everybody their tickets tonight and we're going to keep doing the damn show, okay?' The star is set to return to the stage on July 10 in Ontario, Canada. He is currently on his Country Song Came on Tour, which has more stops in Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio, on July 11 and Hershey, Pennsylvania, on July 12. Luke has had a slew of talented special guests who have been featured at his shows, including George Birge, Avery Anna, Ashland Craft, Mae Estes, Cole Goodwin, and Braxton Keith. The list also boasts Randall King, Vincent Mason, Drake Milligan, Adrien Nunez, and Owen Riegling on select dates.

Country Star Makes Bold Statement About His Viral Cereal Moment
Country Star Makes Bold Statement About His Viral Cereal Moment originally appeared on Parade. It's been a few months since lit up screens with his 'Worst Way' music video, but if there's one moment that fans remember most, it's that the country music star loves his cereal. And that's saying a lot. 'Worst Way' is ludicrously sexy. Green and his on-screen lover eschew a romantic dinner—the salad goes flying!—to cut to the chase of making love. They nearly knock the paintings off the wall with the level of their passion. And they keep that absurd intensity up when they dine out, much to the bewilderment of the others at the restaurant. And yet, it's the closing scene that fans remember most. While his lover lounges on the counter in red lingerie, Green eats what looks like a bowl of cornflakes. And apparently, that's more true to life than the rest of the video. 'My friends make fun of me and say I eat like a kid 'cause I will eat cereal just constantly all day,' he said, per Country Now. 'I think probably Cinnamon Toast Crunch is the best cereal, but as an adult, I feel like I gotta eat something a little more healthy, so I go like a Honey Bunches of Oats.' Green also said that he enjoyed filming that scene a little too much and that they had to keep refilling his bowl. 'We had to reshoot it, so they wanted me to pretend to eat it,' he said, 'but I'll probably eat four bowls of cereal in that sitting.' The country singer said that 1988's Bull Durham was the main inspiration for the video, but that the original plan was a little more sincere. 'The first treatment they sent me, it made me turn red. I wanted to crawl under the table just reading it,' he said in an interview with Audacy. Knowing that he would be the one acting out these scenes of unbridled passion, Green decided to amp up the 'comedic relief.' "It's not really comfortable [to] shoot a music video like that, but it ended up being a lot of fun,' he Star Makes Bold Statement About His Viral Cereal Moment first appeared on Parade on Jun 20, 2025 This story was originally reported by Parade on Jun 20, 2025, where it first appeared.
