Sir Rod Stewart 'devastated' after cancelling more US concerts as he recovers from flu
Sir Rod Stewart says he is devastated to have to cancel a series of US concerts, blaming lingering flu for the decision. It affects four shows in Nevada, along with a further two in California, which he plans to reschedule. They were due to take place over the next eight days. "So sorry my friends. I'm devastated and sincerely apologise for any inconvenience to my fans. I'll be back on stage and will see you soon," he wrote in a message on Instagram. Sir Rod, 80, has been struggling to recover from flu and this week had already cancelled two concerts at Caesars Palace, Las Vegas. On Wednesday, he disclosed that his doctor had "ordered" him to take "a bit more rest". The star is in the midst of his epic One Last Time Tour. Sir Rod, who was recently put on vocal rest, is due to play the legends slot at Glastonbury later this month. In May, he was presented with a lifetime achievement award at the American Music Awards (AMAs). In a sign of how seriously the singer takes his health, last month he was also spotted in Italy attempting to avoid conversations to preserve his voice. He wore a message attached to a lanyard which read: "Sorry. Cannot talk. Having vocal rest." In 2024, he promised he would not retire but confirmed his 2025 European and North American shows would bring an end to his "large-scale world tours". The performer, best known for songs including Da Ya Think I'm Sexy?, Every Beat Of My Heart, and Maggie May, said he plans to focus on more intimate venues instead. Sir Rod has faced other health challenges in the past. In May 2000, he was diagnosed with thyroid cancer and had surgery. In 2017, he underwent successful treatment for prostate cancer.

How stunned Joe Rogan reacted to Trump and Musk war in real time during Kash Patel interview
It was supposed to be just another no-holds-barred conversation on The Joe Rogan Experience, but what unfolded in real time stunned even Joe Rogan himself. Midway through the recording of Rogan's high-profile interview with FBI Director Kash Patel on Thursday afternoon, chaos was erupting on social media. Donald Trump and Elon Musk, once the closest of political allies and collaborators, were detonating their relationship in a flurry of public insults, threats, and finally, an explosive accusation that would leave political world gasping. 'Jesus Christ,' Rogan muttered, his eyes widening as he read aloud Musk's now-infamous post: 'Time to drop the really big bomb. Donald Trump is in the Epstein files. That's the real reason they have not been made public. Have a nice day, DJT!' The podcast had already been knee-deep in a discussion of child sex offender Jeffrey Epstein 's shadowy network, when Rogan's producer put up Musk's incendiary post on the screen. It was an accusation aimed squarely at Trump, dragging him into the murky world of Epstein's infamous island and the so-called 'Epstein files' - flight logs and documents long rumored to implicate the powerful and well-connected. 'I'm not participating in any of that conversation between Elon and Trump,' Patel said immediately, distancing himself from the explosive spat. But Rogan couldn't look away. 'Someone should take his phone away,' Rogan muttered, incredulous. 'Jesus Christ that's a crazy thing to say. How does he know? Does he have access to the Epstein files?' Patel remained calm but firmly replied: 'I don't know how he would. But I'm staying out of it. That's way outside my lane.' Still in disbelief Rogan added: 'What the f*** are they doing?' The Musk-Trump row had been simmering for days, but few expected it to erupt so spectacularly. 'I understand he owns Twitter, but I think it's bad for your mental health,' Rogan said moments later. 'Posting all day and arguing with people all day - that can't be good for you.' 'I know my lane and that ain't it,' Patel said again, staying as far from the blast zone as possible. Hours earlier, at a White House meeting, Trump had lashed out at Musk's blistering critique of his prized 'Big Beautiful Bill,' calling the Tesla founder 'very disappointing.' From there, the tit-for-tat escalated with breathtaking speed. Musk upped the ante by threatening to back a third-party challenger, a nightmare scenario for Republican strategists. Trump, never one to back down, retaliated by publicly musing about cancelling Musk's multi-billion-dollar government contracts with NASA and the Department of Defense. By Friday, as word of the Musk-Trump implosion spread, Washington seemed to be in full crisis mode. Senior Republicans scrambled to contain the damage, fearful that the spectacle could derail crucial legislation, including Trump's controversial tax and border spending bill, which Musk had labeled an 'abomination.' 'I hope it doesn't distract us from getting the job done,' Rep. Dan Newhouse (R-Washington) told reporters nervously. Others practically begged for a reconciliation. 'When the two of them are working together, we get a lot more done,' Senator Ted Cruz (R-Texas) said on Fox News. Senator Mike Lee (R-Utah) posted a photo collage of Trump and Musk, pleading: 'Who else really wants @elonmusk and @realDonaldTrump to reconcile?' But Trump, in true Trump fashion, showed no interest in extending an olive branch. 'You mean the man who has lost his mind?' he scoffed when asked about Musk during a phone interview with ABC News. 'I'm not particularly interested in talking to him.' Later, aboard Air Force One en route to his Bedminster golf club, Trump struck a more detached tone. 'Honestly, I've been so busy working on China, Russia, Iran... I'm not thinking about Elon Musk. I just wish him well,' he told reporters, even as aides privately fumed that Musk's accusations could inflict serious damage. Still, the president couldn't resist one last jab: 'He's lost it.' The political earthquake was soon matched by a financial one. Tesla's stock plummeted more than 14% on Thursday amid the very public feud, wiping out nearly $100 billion in market value before recovering slightly by Friday. At the White House, aides whispered that Trump was considering getting rid of the bright red Tesla Model S he famously purchased earlier this year, a symbol of the bromance that once was. Musk is seen jumping on stage as he joined Donald Trump during a campaign rally last October 'He's thinking about it, yes,' a senior White House official confirmed. Meanwhile, Musk remained unusually quiet on Friday, steering clear of his usual rapid-fire posting on X, the platform he owns and has aggressively reshaped. For Trump, Musk's financial and political support had been crucial. The billionaire donated nearly $300 million to Trump's 2024 campaign. But Musk, too, has much to lose.

Kris Jenner, 69, looks younger than ever as she shows off her new face for dinner at Nobu
Kris Jenner looked younger than ever as she stepped out for dinner at the celebrity hotspot Nobu in Malibu on Friday. The momager, 69 - who recently sparked speculation about having gotten another facelift - showed off her latest look while chatting with a close friend outside of the restaurant. Just one day earlier, her daughter Kim Kardashian was also seen stopping by the popular eatery with her eldest daughter North - who debuted a shocking new hair color. Jenner put on a stylish display wearing a pair of black leather pants as well as a black Prada jacket that contained shiny floral embellishments on the material. The reality star also opted for a pair of black shades while her short dark locks were partially pulled back away from her face. A warm blush was added to her cheekbones for a radiant glow while a nude-colored tint was worn on her lips for a finishing touch. The momager - who recently sparked speculation about having gotten another facelift - showed off her latest look while chatting with a close friend outside of the restaurant Kris was spotted mingling outside of Nobu as she held a conversation with a pal who had joined her to grab a bite to eat. The latest outing comes just weeks after the momager first sparked plastic surgery rumors last month in May when fans had mistaken her for daughter Kim. At the time, hairstylist Chris Appleton - who has worked with the Kardashian/Jenner family for years - uploaded Instagram photos of the reality star from her recent trip in Paris. In one image, Kris flashed a small smile for the camera as she donned a black velvet dress while her locks were swept up into a chic up do. Fans jumped to the comment section of his post to share their thoughts over Jenner's youthful appearance. One penned, 'I thought that was Kim posing as Kris at first… for the first photo,' while another typed, 'Thought that was Kim! She looks INCREDIBLE.' 'She definitely saw Lindsey Lohan's surgeon!! That facelift did her some good justice,' a social media user shared, and one added, 'Their surgeon is pretty good I have to say. She looks bomb.' Lohan has also ignited speculation about her changing face this year - with some suggesting she may have also gotten surgery. However in May, the Freaky Friday actress said her radiant appearance was due to wellness and skincare. The reality star also opted for a pair of black shades while her short dark locks were partially pulled back away from her face The latest outing comes just weeks after the momager first sparked plastic surgery rumors last month in May when fans had mistaken her for daughter Kim Kris later shared pictures of her own from her time in Paris - where she traveled to in order to support her daughter Kim for her jewelry heist trial and Lauren Sánchez's bachelorette bash. In one snap, the media personality looked fashionable in a dark gray top as well as a fitted pencil skirt. She struck a pose for the camera while holding a skateboard in her hand for the lighthearted photo. In additional images, Jenner could be seen posing with other celebrities such as Katy Perry, Lauren Sánchez and Kim. Fans once again gushed over the momager's new transformation, with one penning, 'The best FACELIFT EVER.' 'Kris Jenner: Reborn 2025,' another wrote while one commented, 'Looking more like one of the Kardashian sisters rather than the matriarch! Beautiful!' Jenner's rep also confirmed to that Kris has seen celebrity plastic surgeon Dr. Steven M. Levine - who is known as the 'facelift maestro.' A source also exclusively told that Jenner has lost weight by stating, 'Kris is no longer a size 10 so she has no need for those clothes, she is a size 6 these days and thrilled about it. It's the same size that she was in the 1980s. 'Her closet is completely different now - the items are so much smaller - and it makes her very happy to get back to the body that she had in her younger years.' Earlier this week, Kim commented on her mother's new look by reposting a snap to her Instagram stories. The image was of her longtime hairstylist Chris Appleton donning a shirt that had 'I'll have what Kris Jenner is having' printed on the front. Along with sharing the picture to her own account, the SKIMS founder added the message, '@chrisappleton1 me too babe.' Back in 2011, Kris notably underwent a facelift which was done by Dr. Garth Fisher - the same doctor who performed Kylie Jenner's breast augmentation in 2019. Jenner has previously gotten other procedures in the past as well, such as Botox and a breast augmentation in the 1980s. In 2018, she had earlobe reduction surgery and a few years later in 2022 the star had a 'very scary' hip replacement procedure. During an episode of The Kardashians at the time, Jenner said of getting the hip replacement: 'It reminds me of somebody older than I feel on the inside and somebody who is going to have challenges for the rest of her life. This is serious.' Following the surgery, she admitted that it had been 'painful' but was still 'feeling pretty good.' Kris added, 'I am determined to live again without this pain. Me and my family have so many exciting things going on that I don't wanna miss a thing.' But when it comes to her recent facelift, one plastic surgeon named Dr. Gary Lawton suggested on Instagram that her new look was due to AI rather than plastic surgery.
