Country Star, 34, Cancels Upcoming Tour Dates: 'It Wasn't an Easy Decision'

'I have decided to cancel the European leg of the JIM BOB TOUR,' HARDY wrote on Instagram. 'It wasn't an easy decision, but one I had to make for my band, crew and my family.'
HARDY's European dates were scheduled to kick off on June 19 in Copenhagen, Denmark, with a run of stops in the Netherlands, Belgium, the U.K. and Ireland.
'Please know that I love you all and I will be back as soon as I can," he told fans in his apology, adding a heart emoji at the end of his message.
HARDY has also promised ticket holders that they will receive an automatic refund for the shows they intended on attending via their point of purchase. While he didn't indicate why he canceled all European dates of the trek, it's likely for good reason as the JIM BOB World Tour is his biggest yet.
The JIM BOB World Tour, produced by Live Nation, formally kicked off on May 22 in Chula Vista, CA, following two festival stops in April and May, respectively. The trek, which features openers Koe Wetzel, Stephen WilsonJr., Sikarus and McCoyMoore for select dates, runs through Sept. 24.

Cristiano Ronaldo and Georgina Rodríguez are engaged. What we know so far about the massive ring that's estimated to be worth 7 figures
The bride-to-be posted the photo of the impressive diamond ring that broke the internet. Portuguese soccer star Cristiano Ronaldo and Argentine model Georgina Rodríguez announced their engagement on Monday after eight years of dating. The bride-to-be shared the momentous news in an Instagram post, with a photo of her massive sparkler of an engagement ring and the caption, written in Spanish: 'Yes, I do. In this and in all my lives.' The post has since broken the internet, with over 11.3 million likes as of Tuesday morning. The official details of Rodríguez's bling, like the number of carats and how much it's worth, have yet to be revealed by the power couple and their unknown jeweler, but that hasn't stopped jewelry experts from weighing in. Here's what we know so far about the 'four C's' (cut, clarity, color and carat) of the impressive diamond ring: What kind of cut is the diamond? Abdulla BelJafla, creative director of Gafla, who shared his insight with Vogue Arabia, said the main diamond in the center is an oval-cut, which maximizes its brilliance. 'A perfectly proportioned oval (with a 1.30–1.50 length-to-width ratio) offers symmetry on the hand,' he told the magazine. 'While many ovals exhibit the subtle 'bow-tie effect,' this piece appears to have exceptional light dispersion, minimizing it entirely.' How many estimated carats are there? Rodríguez's oval-cut diamond ring is approximately 37 carats in total, according to jewelry experts. The center oval stone weighs about 35 carats, Tobias Kormind, the managing director of 77 Diamonds in London, told People. He believes the center stone is flanked by oval stones on the sides, about one carat each, set in platinum. BelJafla also assessed the stunner to be about 37 carats total and estimated the center diamond to be "between 22 and 30 carats," he told Vogue Arabia. Let's get down to brass tacks. How much do we think this ring is worth? It's estimated to be worth seven figures. 'If the diamond is natural and of exceptional quality in the D-F color range with flawless or near-flawless clarity, its value could easily exceed around $2 million," Laura Taylor, engagement ring specialist at Lorel Diamonds, told People. Meanwhile, Kormind estimates that Rodríguez is carrying around a $5 million ring on her finger. 'Experts value the ring between U.S. $4 million and U.S. $5 million,' BelJafla told Vogue Arabia, 'given the size, flawless clarity, and D color of the stones. … A ring like this is quite rare if it's a natural diamond.' What else do we know about the engaged couple? Ronaldo, 40, and Rodríguez, 31, have been together for eight years. They have a total of four children together: twins Eva Maria and Mateo, 8 (born via surrogacy); daughter Alana, 7; and daughter Bella, 3. Ronaldo also has a 15-year-old son, Cristiano Jr., from a previous relationship. The couple previously announced the death of Bella's twin brother, Ángel, in April 2022.

Metallica And Queen Manage The Same Feat
For the past several weeks, both Ozzy Osbourne and his band Black Sabbath have appeared in lofty positions on the charts in the United Kingdom, as listeners in the late rocker's home country mourn his passing and honor his legacy by streaming and buying his biggest hits. As is always the case when such a surge occurs for a sad reason, those tunes have started to decline, especially on the country's rundown of the top rock and metal tracks. That's the tally where Osbourne and Black Sabbath fully displayed their immense popularity, and this frame, as some of Osbourne's most popular tunes and a handful of Black Sabbath cuts fall, several other classics by other superstar acts are able to return to the highest tier. Metallica, Queen and Evanescence Return Four songs return to the top 10 on the Official Rock and Metal Singles chart this week. All of them regularly spend time within that region, but they were recently pushed out as Osbourne and Black Sabbath surged. 'Can't Stop' by Red Hot Chili Peppers leaps highest, jumping from No. 12 to No. 7. That tune is followed by a trio of comebacks, including 'Don't Stop Me Now' by Queen (No. 8), 'Enter Sandman' by Metallica (No. 9), and 'Bring Me to Life' by Evanescence (No. 10). Ozzy Osbourne and Black Sabbath Fall Making room for Metallica, Queen, and others, a pair of Osbourne tunes and two Black Sabbath favorites fall. Last week, Osbourne's 'Mama, I'm Coming Home' and 'No More Tears' sat at Nos. 4 and 5, respectively, and now they dip to Nos. 12 and 13. Black Sabbath sat just behind the group's own frontman at Nos. 6 and 7 with 'War Pigs' and 'Iron Man,' which have now declined in stature to Nos. 15 and 16, respectively. AC/DC, Guns N' Roses and Disturbed Rise Several other popular smashes are also on the rise within the top 10 on the Official Rock and Metal Singles chart, though they don't need to return to the highest tier. 'Iris' by Goo Goo Dolls finds its way back to No. 1, swapping spots with 'Paranoid' by Black Sabbath, which dips to the runner-up slot. 'The Sound of Silence' by Disturbed, 'Thunderstruck' by AC/DC, and 'Sweet Child O' Mine' by Guns N' Roses all inch north several spots, settling in at Nos. 4, 5, and 6, respectively, after landing in the lowest spots within the uppermost region just a few days ago.

Oasis Sends Several Albums Back To The Charts As The Band's Reunion Tour Continues
Oasis is one of a handful of homegrown musical acts in the United Kingdom that never have a hard time charting. The group hasn't released new music in many years, and for a while it looked like the musicians wanted nothing to do with one another, and yet several albums live on multiple tallies each week. Sometimes more than one single can land on a list or two as well. The rock group is in the middle of its Oasis Live '25 Tour reunion, which will surely be one of the most lucrative treks of the year, as there was extreme pent-up demand to see the rockers perform. Several Oasis albums return to the charts in the U.K. as the band recently finished several nights in Edinburgh, Scotland, and will soon head to Ireland and then the rest of the world. Two Oasis Albums Return A pair of Oasis collections become bestsellers in the U.K. again this frame. Be Here Now finds its way back to the Official Album Downloads chart at No. 67, while Knebworth 1996 reenters the Official Album Sales ranking at No. 93. Be Here Now and Knebworth 1996 Between those two, Be Here Now is the greater success, and not only because it appears in a loftier position. That set lives on a trio of tallies, as it also sits at a similar spot on the Official Album Sales and Official Physical Albums charts. Knebworth 1996, meanwhile, rises more than 10 spaces on the ranking of the bestselling titles on any physical format, jumping from No. 98 to No. 85. Half a Dozen Charting Titles – and Two of the Top Three Oasis sees six projects appear on the charts in the U.K., and all of them live on multiple tallies at once. In fact, Be Here Now and Knebworth 1996 are among the group's least successful, as titles like (What's the Story) Morning Glory?, Time Flies… 1994–2009, and Definitely Maybe occupy space on more rosters. Amazingly, the band fills two of the three highest rungs on the Official Albums chart, the 100-space roster that looks at total consumption. As Reneé Rapp's Bite Me launches in first place, becoming the singer-songwriter's first champion, Time Flies… 1994–2009 and (What's the Story) Morning Glory? hold at Nos. 2 and 3, respectively. 12 Hit Songs in the U.K. Oasis is somehow even more successful when it comes to songs. A dozen tunes appear on U.K. rankings, with many becoming bestsellers and a number of the group's most famous compositions living on the Official Streaming chart as British fans consume Oasis classics any way they can.
