Lil Wayne at centre of growing fears for health after postponing gig due to illness
Lil Wayne is at the centre of growing fears for his health after he postponed a highly anticipated Toronto concert due to illness. The 42-year-old rapper's scheduled venue, Budweiser Stage, announced he would not be appearing in a statement issued on X. It said: 'Due to unforeseen illness, Wayne's Toronto show tonight will be postponed. 'As his fans know, he loves putting on nothing short of the best performances for those who come out, and he was so excited for this one.' The announcement referred to a gig on Monday, 11 August, but is only now coming to light due to concerns about Wayne's health by fans. Wayne, whose legal name is Dwayne Michael Carter Jr., had been scheduled to perform at Toronto's Budweiser Stage but will now reschedule. The statement continued: 'Please stay tuned for the new date coming soon. All previously purchased tickets will be honoured for the new date once announced.' No further details have been provided regarding the nature of his illness and neither Wayne or his representatives have publicly commented on his condition despite fans getting increasingly worried about the performer. Wayne is currently on the Tha Carter VI tour, which launched on 1 August in Virginia Beach, Virginia, and is set to continue through multiple cities including Detroit, Los Angeles, and Dallas before concluding on 2 October at West Palm Beach, Florida's iTHINK Financial Amphitheatre. Special guests on select dates include French Montana, Tyga, and NoCap, while Belly Gang Kushington will appear at all performances. In a separate controversy, Wayne's on-off girlfriend Denise Bidot, 39, publicly accused him of physical abuse and criticised him for ending their relationship via text on Mother's Day. In posts on her Instagram Stories, Denise said: 'Breaking up with someone on Mother's Day is diabolical. Prayers up though. God always pulls me through. Walking with faith.' She added: 'Wayne literally kicked me and my daughter out on Mother's Day today. I am just recovering from surgery. I am five weeks out from a whole mommy makeover. I can't even lift boxes. 'But this man has his assistants coming to help kick us out today... and (he) broke up with me on Mother's Day through text. And (my daughter's) birthday's next weekend.' She also wrote she was 'unsure how to even process my emotions' and asked followers for legal advice – noting: 'I know he has two girls being flown in today, and who knows how many plethora of girls he has. I've been nothing but supportive to this man, loved him till the end of the f****** world.' At the time of her claims, representatives for Wayne did not respond to requests for comment.

Sharon Stone's rare red carpet appearance with all three of her sons
Don't miss out on the headlines from Celebrity Kids. Followed categories will be added to My News. Sharon Stone is a proud boy mum. The actress, 67, was joined by her three sons, Roan, 25, Laird, 20, and Quinn, 19, for a rare red carpet appearance at Monday's premiere of her new film, Nobody 2, in Los Angeles. Stone wore a navy dress, glasses and a gold bangle bracelet as she posed for pictures with her boys, who all wore suits. Roan had on a pink suit, Laird opted for a grey suit, and Quinn went with a navy pinstripe suit. Along with her kids, Stone took photos with her co-stars Bob Odenkirk and Christopher Lloyd. Stone was a proud mum on the red carpet of her latest film. Picture: Valerie Macon/AFP The action thriller, also starring Connie Nielson, RZA, Colin Hanks, Michael Ironside and John Ortiz, is a sequel to 2021's Nobody, which follows a family man (Odenkirk) who returns to his former life as an assassin. Stone adopted her oldest son with her ex-husband, Phil Bronstein, in 2000. After the pair divorced in 2004, she adopted Laird in 2005 and Quinn in 2006. The Oscar nominee and Bronstein initially shared custody of Roan, but Roan ended up primarily living with his dad in San Francisco during the school year. Stone tried, and failed, to challenge the agreement. 'It broke my heart,' she said on the Table for Two with Bruce Bozzi podcast in 2023 about losing custody of Roan. 'I ended up in the Mayo Clinic with extra heartbeats in the upper and lower chambers of my heart.' She has previously spoken about her heartbreak over the custody battle with her ex. Picture:Stone alleged that her role in the erotic thriller Basic Instinct affected her custody of Roan. 'When the judge asked my child – my tiny little boy, 'Do you know your mother makes sex movies?' This kind of abuse by the system, that it was considered what kind of parent I was because I made that movie,' she said. 'People are walking around with no clothes on at all on regular TV now and you saw maybe like a sixteenth of a second of possible nudity of me – and I lost custody of my child,' Stone added. Stone, who has been a single mum since her divorce, has maintained a close bond with her boys. In May, Stone shared a throwback photo of her sons swimming in the pool to celebrate Mother's Day. 'They boys, now young men, have made my Mother's Day EVERYTHING,' she wrote. Nobody 2 is in cinemas this Thursday.

Comedian Anh Do can't joke his way out of one situation with wife Suzanne
Comedian and writer Anh Do, 48, and his wife, writer Suzanne Do, 49, met 30 years ago at university. They have been happily married since 2001 and have four children – but they nearly didn't make it past their wedding day. Anh: In 1995, in my first class on my first day at the University of Technology, Sydney, I spotted this tall, blonde girl with a smile that lit up the room, talking with friends. It was love at first sight for me. Suzie and I quickly became friends, hanging out with the same group of people; we were both doing law and business. Suzie was so clever and generous at explaining things to me. Sometimes, I feigned not understanding to get her attention. We started dating in 2000; I was still a student with no money. Once, when I picked Suzie up from her parents' home, the bumper on my dodgy Nissan Pulsar fell off in their driveway. I had to borrow a coathanger from her mum to re-attach it. I felt like her parents were thinking, 'Everything about this guy says 'unsuitable'.' I make decisions quickly, but Suzie has to weigh up all the pros and cons. Three months after we eventually started dating, I got down on one knee in the rain on Ettalong Beach [on the NSW Central Coast] and proposed. When she said yes, I thought I'd burst with happiness. Suzie embraced everything about us getting engaged and married. She asked Mum what happened at a Vietnamese engagement party and Mum took her shopping for an áo dài [Vietnamese dress]. When I turned up at the party, she looked amazing. 'There are ups and downs, of course, but our marriage has only become more magical over time.' Anh Do She'll always try new things. When she came with me to a big Vietnamese family event [before we were married], one of my uncles offered her this weird dish made of offal – like a Vietnamese black pudding. Without hesitation, Suzie tried it and said it was delicious. Then she offered it to the aunties. 'No way!' they said. 'Even we don't eat that stuff!' Our 2001 wedding was in the church at St Aloysius [in Sydney]. It was raining, but just as we said our vows, the sun burst through the stained-glass window. I was crying so much; all my dreams had come true. I'm told it was magical – and that's what our life has been like. There are ups and downs, of course, but our marriage has only become more magical over time. Suzie was on the uni debating team, so she's good at winning arguments. That's annoying. If I sense I'm not going to win, I try humour, but that can get me into even more trouble. Recently, our 15-year-old son, Leon, wanted to play in an open rugby tournament. I thought he should, but Suzie thought he shouldn't because he'd be playing against older boys and he had a lead role in the school production of The Little Mermaid that week; he was playing Sebastian the crab. 'What if he breaks his arm?' she asked. I said, 'If his arm's in a red cast, he'll look even more crabby.' I lost that argument.
