Grimes Cancels Pride Performance to 'Deal With Family Issues'
Grimes is pressing pause.
The singer—real name Claire Elise Boucher—apologized to fans over pulling out of her upcoming performance in Washington, D.C. celebrating World Pride 'in order to deal with family issues.'
Noting in the May 26 social media message that she is 'so so sorry and regretful,' Grimes continued, 'I want to say that I am aware the situation has been a great inconvenience to the fans for some time, and I am truly determined to make sure this is no longer the case very soon.'
The 'Genesis' singer also expressed her confidence that the June 6 and 7 festival—which also features Troye Sivan, Kim Petras, Sofi Tukker and a set from RuPaul—is 'still going to be amazing.'
'I hope this is early enough and gives people enough time if they wish to change their plans,' she added. 'And I *will* make this up to you guys very soon.'
Grimes signed her note with, 'So much love always.'

This is not the first time the 37-year-old—who shares kids X Æ A-Xii, 5, Exa Dark Sideræl, 3, and Techno Mechanicus, 2, with ex Elon Musk—has alluded to challenges within her personal life, especially when it comes to navigating her coparenting relationship.
Back in February, Grimes took to social media to share a plea with Elon—who shares 14 children with four women, including Grimes—concerning the health of one of their shared children.
'Plz respond about our child's medical crisis,' the artist, who did not reveal which of her children was in crisis, wrote Feb. 20 on X, per screenshots shared by TMZ at the time. 'I am sorry to do this publicly but it is no longer acceptable to ignore this situation. This requires immediate attention.'
She continued, 'If you don't want to talk to me can you please designate or hire someone who can so that we can move forward on solving this. This is urgent, Elon.'
The Visions artist also responded to a user who questioned why she'd brought the personal problem to the public platform.
"I'm not giving any details but he won't respond to texts call or emails and has skipped every meeting and our child will suffer life long impairment if he doesn't respond asap," Grimes replied. "So I need him to f--king respond and if I have to apply public pressure then I guess that's where we're at."

From otters to sourdough, everything we learned about Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce's romance on the 'New Heights' podcast
Swift appeared on the Aug. 13 episode of 'New Heights' alongside Kelce and his brother, Jason. They're not fighting the alchemy. Taylor Swift appeared on boyfriend Travis Kelce's podcast New Heights to talk about her new album The Life of a Showgirl, and over the course of the episode, also gave fans major insight into their relationship of more than two years. This is the first time that Swift has appeared on New Heights, which Kelce hosts with his brother Jason. But it's not surprising that Swift and Kelce flaunted their love on the mic: the two have hardly been shy about how much they care for each other, with plenty of paparazzi photos documenting their PDA at events like the U.S. Open and the Super Bowl. Just this week, Kelce gushed over his girlfriend in an interview for GQ. Swift, meanwhile, has brought Kelce into the fold on the Eras Tour, shouting him out as 'the guy on the Chiefs' in her song 'Karma' and even performing alongside him for a special version of 'I Can Do It With a Broken Heart.' Yet the New Heights podcast — the most-watched in the podcast's history at 10 million views on YouTube alone — gave nearly two hours of Swelce content, revealing more about their relationship than ever before. Here's what we learned: The friendship bracelet saga Swift and Kelce's romance began after the NFL player attended the Kansas City stop of the Eras Tour in July 2023. Kelce was enamored with Swift following her performance, and was disappointed that he couldn't meet up with her after the show in order to give her a friendship bracelet he made her — something he spoke about on New Heights back in July 2023. On her episode of New Heights, Swift teased that Kelce 'threw a tantrum' — despite not even reaching out to her management about securing a meeting. 'This dude didn't get a meet and greet and he's making it everyone's problem, that's what I thought at first,' Swift joked. But after the podcast aired, Swift said she started hearing from mutual friends that Kelce was actually a good guy, prompting her to schedule a meetup. 'I was like, if this guy isn't crazy — which is a big if,' she said, 'this is sort of what I've been writing songs about wanting to happen to me since I was a teenager.' Kelce supported Swift when she got her masters back On New Heights, Swift spoke about her long journey to gain ownership over her masters, something that she's wanted for her entire music career. When she received the phone call from her mother Andrea Swift that said she was finally able to purchase her masters, Swift went to Kelce crying. Kelce, apparently, also had an emotional reaction. 'I started crying, too,' Kelce said on the podcast, to which Swift added, 'You were weeping.' 'I was just so happy for you, because I've seen, I've seen how you make music. I've seen how you make these videos,' he explained. Swift loves to bake for Kelce — and the whole family Swift joked that she gets into a new baking obsession 'every six months' — and that the Kelce family reaps the benefits. She sent Kelce sourdough loafs while the athlete was at training camp, and also made a funfetti sourdough bread for Kelce's brother and New Heights co-host Jason Kelce's four daughters. 'We put sprinkles in everything when we hang out,' Swift said. 'She's a loafer for life now,' Kelce joked. Kelce loves otters The couple admitted that the internet can be a tough place, given how many people want to weigh in on their lives — but it's also a beautiful one, because 'Travis shows me videos of otters on his Instagram algorithm,' Swift said. 'I want a wild otter so bad,' Kelce said. Kelce's heard the 'bangers' on Unsurprisingly, Kelce has already heard The Life of a Showgirl, and loves the new album, which he called a 'complete 180' from a lot of the songs on her previous album The Tortured Poets Department. 'I've been fortunate enough to hear every single song on here, so I know they're all 12 bangers,' he said. 'It's a lot more upbeat, and it's a lot more like fun pop, like excitement.' Swift and Kelce tune out the noise around their relationship While many people have commented — and speculated — about the state of her and Kelce's romance, Swift told Jason on the podcast that she tries to stay tuned out of the noise online. 'Anything you feed your brain, it will internalize,' Swift said. 'Anything you feed the internet, it will kill. I've been in the music industry for 20 years — it's pretty hard to hurt my feelings.' Kelce admitted he was worried about some of the 'wacko theories' that emerged when they first started dating, and was concerned it could 'screw up' his romance with Swift. 'Her being so calm, cool, collected and so just real and understanding about everything that's going on really made me grow up real fast in that, in that aspect of things,' he said. Swift also shared that Kelce's ability to laugh off comments online has helped her shake them off, too. 'I think the fact that you genuinely find a lot of online discourse to be truly hilarious, that changes things for me,' she said. 'If he's seeing things and he thinks it's funny and it doesn't even affect his day at all, that's really completely bled into the way that I metabolize these things.' Solve the daily Crossword

Cantor Weighed Tariff Trades for Hedge Funds But Shut Them Down
(Bloomberg) -- Cantor Fitzgerald LP had internal discussions about facilitating trades for hedge funds based on the outcome of legal challenges to Trump administration tariffs, but shut down the idea before executing any transactions, according to people familiar with the matter. The New York brokerage and investment bank was run for three decades by US Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick, a key figure in the nation's trade policy, and is now led by his son Brandon. The younger Lutnick was asked in a letter from Democratic Senators Elizabeth Warren and Ron Wyden released Thursday to disclose transactions or agreements the firm has made relating to products that would let institutions effectively bet on the legality of President Donald Trump's tariffs. The US-Canadian Road Safety Gap Is Getting Wider Sunseeking Germans Face Swiss Backlash Over Alpine Holiday Congestion To Head Off Severe Storm Surges, Nova Scotia Invests in 'Living Shorelines' Five Years After Black Lives Matter, Brussels' Colonial Statues Remain For Homeless Cyclists, Bikes Bring an Escape From the Streets Cantor received a client inquiry about possibly facilitating such trades, which are done by larger Wall Street banks, and some staff discussed with potential clients about arranging them before the idea was rejected, said the people, who requested anonymity to describe internal deliberations. The firm takes no directional position on brokered trades, and only takes commission when it matches a buyer and a seller. 'We have not facilitated or executed any trades in that market,' Cantor spokesperson Erica Chase told Bloomberg by phone. Warren and Wyden had cited a late July report by Wired that alleged the financial services company created a 'litigation finance' product that allows it to bet that the courts will strike down the tariffs. In theory, such trades would connect a company vulnerable to US tariffs with a fund willing to bet that such tariffs might be reversed. 'Public reporting indicates that Cantor has offered companies the opportunity to trade their legal claim to a future tariff refund in exchange for 20 to 30% of the duties the company paid,' the letter said. 'In this scenario, if the courts determine that the tariffs are illegal, the company stands to recover hundreds of millions of dollars.' In reference to the cited story from July, Chase, the Cantor spokesperson, said 'what is being reported about our business is absolutely false.' Cantor's dealings have been a key area of focus for ethics watchdogs who are on alert for conflicts of interest, given Lutnick is a prominent figure in shaping Trump's policies and other potentially market-moving matters. Brandon Lutnick has said he wants the firm 'to be sitting at the heart of crypto,' an industry that has boomed under the current administration. Wyden, in an email to Bloomberg, accused Lutnick's son of 'brokering huge bets on policies the Commerce Secretary is personally directing.' 'When you've got the Commerce Secretary's son running the Commerce Secretary's old Wall Street firm,' Wyden wrote, 'you're going to face some tough questions about whether everything is on the level.' Among the questions the senators posed were how many tariff refund agreements Cantor has finalized, whether it created them at the request of a specific client and if anyone at the firm had communicated with people in the US government about the tariffs or related legal cases, including Trump and the Commerce secretary.
