Kelly Clarkson celebrates comeback with tequila shot from fan, says she 'cried' over canceled show
On Friday, the "Since U Been Gone" crooner apologized to her fans for the last-minute cancellation and explained how the heavy decision impacted her.
"It took us a minute … took me a minute. I'm so sorry if some of y'all had tickets to last weekend's shows," said Clarkson, per Billboard. "We can't help our body sometimes … if we get sick. But thank you all so much for showing up."
"I sound incredible because I canceled last weekend," she added.
Later in the show, Clarkson took a shot of tequila that was handed to her by a fan and said, "I'm celebrating because I had to cancel last weekend. I cried. I was so sick, it sucked. I'm so happy to be here."
Just hours before she was supposed to hit the stage last week for opening night, the singer took to Instagram and announced she would be postponing the show in an effort to protect her voice.
"We have been working 24/7 to make Studio Sessions the most intimate and extraordinary experience with and for my incredible fans," the 43-year-old wrote. "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 shared. "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.
"The show is truly incredible," Clarkson continued. "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."
Many fans quickly took to the comments section to express their disappointment. Others expressed well wishes for the star.
"I'm a huge fan and flew here from Boston spending thousands on tickets and hotels to see your show tomorrow for my 40th birthday," one user wrote. "I really want you to be healthy but canceling this late has such a huge financial impact on your loyal fans."
"Flew in from NY for both opening weekend shows," one person added. "Devastated doesn't cut it but your health has to come first. Get well soon Kelly."
"Kelly Clarkson: Studio Sessions" is scheduled through Nov. 15.

Elmo's Wholesome Feed Got Hacked And Took A Very Sinister Turn
Someone hacked 'Sesame Street' character Elmo's account on X, the Elon Musk-owned platform formerly named Twitter, and turned it into a hateful pit of despair. The heartwarming messages and questions that are usually shared on the lovable, fictional character's feed were replaced with racist, anti-Semitic and offensive bile. There were also slams of President Donald Trump over the ongoing Jeffrey Epstein controversy. Elmo's account was 'compromised' by an 'unknown hacker who posted disgusting messages, including anti-Semitic and racist posts,' a spokesperson for the nonprofit organization Sesame Workshop, which produces the educational children's television show, confirmed to The Daily Beast. The posts remained live for less than half an hour, reported Mediaite. They have since been deleted.

Video: Golden Retriever Puppy Wears a Tie for the First Time & Charms the Internet
Playing dress up with your furry baby never gets old, even though they don't need an outfit to steal hearts. It's also true that there doesn't have to be an occasion to put on their best clothes, and the same goes for our pets. So, it made complete sense when this dog owner shared the most adorable video of his Golden Retriever puppy looking all suited up in a tie and his utterly loveable personality. The pooch didn't just look like a distinguished gentleman, but acted like one, too, spreading charm like confetti and leaving a trail of admirers. If you have been thinking about getting your pet an outfit, this is your sign to suit them up for no reason at all. A too-adorable-to-handle Instagram video showed how a dog dad dressed up his Golden Retriever puppy with a tie, instantly creating a fan club for the little guy. 'Tell me if you guys think this is cute?' the owner, Jack Ruff, said as he looked into the front camera before switching to the back one to show the distinguished gentlemen who stood in front of him like a total heartthrob. The clip then showed Buddy, the Golden pup, proudly standing in front of his dad in his outfit of the day, which was a tie. Furthermore, the caption read his inner thoughts, sharing that this was his 'first time wearing a tie.' The text continued to explain how it took the dog 'forever to figure out how to tie it.' Back to the video, it captured the pooch appeared to be as dashing as ever, with a confident grin on his face on what seemed like a good fur day, while his eyes glistened like literal beads with happiness. Ruff continued hyping up his Golden Retriever puppy in the Instagram video, which has since gone viral, amassing thousands of likes. 'Owwww, the boy,' he praised the dog, who shyly looked away for a brief moment before turning his gaze back toward the camera. The dog owner remarked, 'My handsome,' and a smile popped up on Buddy's face. Commenters agreed he looked like a nobleman. 'What a distinguished gentleman,' wrote one user, while another pointed out how 'proud' he appeared.
