Mötley Crüe Postpone Las Vegas Residency as Vince Neil Undergoes ‘Medical Procedure'
The tour – which was originally scheduled to run for 11 shows from March 28 through April 19 – will now be taking place throughout September and early October instead. According to a statement from the band, the reason for this shift relates to Vince Neil needing to undergo a 'required medical procedure' as per doctor's orders.

'To all the Crüeheads who were looking forward to see us this Spring, I'm truly sorry,' Neil wrote in the statement. 'My health is my top priority so I can bring you the awesome shows you deserve, and I can't wait to return to the stage. Thank you for all the well wishes that keep reaching me. Your support means more than you know.'
In a joint statement, Nikki Sixx, Tommy Lee and guitarist John 5 all shared their well wishes for Neil. 'Please join us in wishing Vince a speedy recovery,' they wrote. 'We are looking forward for him to get well again and to take over Vegas together in September. We can't wait to see you all out there, and thank you for your understanding and support in the meantime.'
The revised tour will still take place at Dolby Live at Park MGM, albeit from Sept. 12 to Oct. 3 instead. While tickets from the original residency dates will remain valid for the new shows, the tour has now been pared down to just ten shows, with the April 19 performance having been canceled entirely.
Neil's undisclosed medical procedure is the latest misfortune to affect the singer in recent weeks. On Feb. 10, a plane owned by Neil was at the center of a fatal crash in Scottsdale, AZ. Neil was not present at the time of the incident.
'At 2:39 p.m. local time, a Learjet aircraft Model 35A owned by Vince Neil was attempting to land at the Scottsdale Airport,' a statement from Neil's representative, Worrick Robinson IV read. 'For reasons unknown at this time, the plane veered from the runway causing it to collide with another parked plane. On board Mr. Neil's plane were two pilots and two passengers.'

Blackpink Waited Half A Decade To Reach No. 1
Blackpink's 'Jump' debuts at No. 1 on Billboard's Dance Digital Song Sales chart and reaches the top ... More three on several others in its first week. INDIO, CALIFORNIA - APRIL 15: (L-R) Jennie, Jisoo, Rosé, and Lisa of BLACKPINK perform at the Coachella Stage during the 2023 Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival on April 15, 2023 in Indio, California. (Photo byfor Coachella) Blackpink's brand new single 'Jump' is off to a strong start on the Billboard charts in the United States. Following its first full tracking frame of availability, the tune sold and streamed well enough to launch inside the top 10 on multiple tallies, bringing the K-pop girl group back to the highest reaches on several rankings, pushing the act toward the summit on a number of tallies for the first time. Billboard classifies 'Jump' as a dance tune, and that label works in Blackpink's favor and helps the four singers make history. 'Jump' Debuts at No. 1 'Jump' opens at No. 1 on one U.S.-based tally, as the tune starts atop the Dance Digital Song Sales chart. Blackpink scores its first No. 1 on the list of the bestselling dance and electronic tracks throughout the country. The group has only appeared on the tally once before this frame. Blackpink previously joined Lady Gaga on 'Sour Candy,' which debuted in June 2020 and eventually peaked in the runner-up spot. Now, the South Korean act has finally reached the top space. Blackpink Joins Jung Kook and Psy Blackpink is just the fourth K-pop act to hit No. 1 on the Dance Digital Song Sales chart. Earlier this month, HUNTR/X — a fictional group from Netflix's film KPop Demon Hunters — soared to the peak position with 'How It's Done.' Blackpink replaces that cut at No. 1 this week. Fellow K-pop stars Psy and Jung Kook of BTS fame have also led the charge in the past. Blackpink Hits the Top 10 on Several Charts 'Jump' starts at No. 3 on the all-genre Digital Song Sales chart, with exactly 3,600 copies purchased (per Luminate). The tune also opens in the runner-up spot on both the Hot Dance/Pop Songs and Dance Streaming Songs tallies. Looking globally, 'Jump' is the biggest hit around the world this frame, as Blackpink returns to No. 1 on both the Billboard Global 200 and Billboard Global Excl. U.S. with the exciting comeback track.

Ateez Scores A New No. 1 Smash — And Dominates One Billboard Chart
Ateez lands a third No. 1 on the World Digital Song Sales chart with 'In Your Fantasy,' while five ... More more tracks debut inside the top 10. SEOUL, SOUTH KOREA - JUNE 12: ATEEZ attends ATEEZ's the 12th mini album 'GOLDEN HOUR : Part.3' press conference at Hotel Naru Seoul MGallery in Mapo-gu on June 12, 2025 in Seoul, South Korea. (Photo by The Chosunilbo JNS/Imazins via Getty Images) Ateez continues its winning streak this week as the K-pop boy band surges north on several Billboard charts. The group's EP Golden Hour: Part 3 was recently reissued, and it has once again become one of the bestselling titles in the United States. The short set gains ground and reappears on multiple tallies, and the newly added tracks become bestsellers in their own right. As several tunes debut, the South Korean superstars even manage to score another chart-topper. Ateez Returns to No. 1 With 'In Your Fantasy' Ateez returns to No. 1 on the World Digital Song Sales chart as 'In Your Fantasy' opens in first place. The track serves as the lead single from the In Your Fantasy edition reissue of Golden Hour: Part 3, so it makes sense that fans of the K-pop act flocked primarily to this one cut. Ateez Earns a Third World Digital Song Sales No. 1 'In Your Fantasy' gives Ateez its third No. 1 on the World Digital Song Sales tally. The group earned its second champion just a month ago when 'Lemon Drop' also opened in first place, though it quickly vanished. Ateez first conquered the Billboard ranking, which is often associated with K-pop figureheads, in the summer of 2024, when 'Work' launched in first place. The band has now collected a total of 27 top 10 hits, which makes Ateez one of the most successful acts in the history of the tally. 'In Your Fantasy' Also Cracks the Digital Song Sales Top 10 In its first full tracking frame, 'In Your Fantasy' sold just under 2,800 copies throughout the United States, according to Luminate. That sum is large enough for the single to debut inside the top 10 on the Digital Song Sales ranking, which includes all genres and languages. Ateez claims just its second placement ever on that list, and both tunes have cracked the top 10. Ateez Dominates the World Digital Song Sales Chart Ateez commands 60% of all the spaces on the World Digital Song Sales chart this week, as half a dozen tracks launch on the roster. 'In Your Fantasy' leads the charge, followed by 'Sagittarius,' 'Skin,' 'Slide to Me,' 'Legacy,' and 'Roar,' which open one right after the other, coming in at Nos. 6, 7, 8, 9, and 10, respectively.
