Soundside Music Festival cancelled
The two-day event – which was set to take place at Seaside Park in Bridgeport, Connecticut on September 27 and 28 with headliners The Killers, Weezer, Hozier and Vampire Weekend – has been axed, according to a brief message on its website.
The message states: 'Due to circumstances beyond our control, Soundside Music Festival has been cancelled. Tickets will be refunded to the original method of payment in as little as 30 days depending on your bank's processing time.'
No other information was given and there were no details on the reason for cancellation.
Djo, Japanese Breakfast, the Backseat Lovers, Remi Wolf, Alex Warren and the Last Dinner Party were also on the line-up.
This comes one year after Foo Fighters cancelled their planned performance at the festival in 2024 with only a few days notice, after Dave Grohl revealed he had welcomed a baby outside of his marriage.
In a statement posted on Instagram, the band said: "FOO FIGHTERS WILL NO LONGER BE APPEARING AT THIS WEEKEND'S SOUNDSIDE MUSIC FESTIVAL. PLEASE CHECK THE FESTIVAL WEBSITE FOR MORE INFORMATION (sic)"
The Foo Fighters didn't cite a specific reason for cancelling their planned appearance at the festival.
However, it came just weeks after Dave confirmed that he had fathered a child outside of his marriage.
The 56-year-old musician vowed to "regain" the trust of his family after sharing the news via social media.
Dave - who has been married to Jordyn Blum since 2003 - wrote on Instagram at the time: "I've recently become the father of a new baby daughter, born outside of my marriage. I plan to be a loving and supportive parent to her. I love my wife and my children, and I am doing everything I can to regain their trust and earn their forgiveness. We're grateful for your consideration toward all the children involved, as we move forward together."

How Sharon Osbourne and her kids each paid tribute to Ozzy at funeral procession
The Osbournes put on a united front as they honored Ozzy Osbourne at his funeral procession in his UK hometown on Wednesday. Sharon Osbourne, her kids Jack, Kelly and Aimee, and her stepson Louis all broke down in tears as they said goodbye to the heavy metal icon alongside thousands of fans in streets of Birmingham, England. Each member of the famous family subtly included touching references to Ozzy. Sharon, 72, wore Ozzy's wedding ring on a chain around her neck. The former 'America's Got Talent' judge, who was married to Ozzy for 43 years before his death at age 76, had to be consoled by her kids as she laid purple flowers at a memorial during the funeral procession. Jack, 39, honored his dad with a small silver cross pin that he wore at the end of his tie. The pin referenced Ozzy's silver cross pendants that were part of his iconic look. Kelly, 40, sported a pair of round wire-rimmed sunglasses, another one of Ozzy's signature styles. Aimee, 41, for her part, wore a bat broach on her black blazer. The Black Sabbath frontman infamously bit the head off a real bat in 1982, thinking it was a toy animal, during a concert. Louis, who is Ozzy's son from his marriage to ex-wife Thelma Riley, celebrated the rocker's legacy by wearing a purple tie with skull and crossbones symbols. Black and purple were the colors most associated with Ozzy's band. Kelly's fiancé, Sid Wilson, and their 2-year-old son, Sidney, also attended the funeral procession. Ozzy's daughter Jessica, 45, and adopted son Elliot Kingsley, both from his first marriage, appeared to skip the event. The Prince of Darkness' family announced his death last Tuesday. 'It is with more sadness than mere words can convey that we have to report that our beloved Ozzy Osbourne has passed away this morning,' the statement read. 'He was with his family and surrounded by love. We ask everyone to respect our family privacy at this time. Sharon, Jack, Kelly, Aimee, and Louis.' Ozzy, who was suffering from Parkinson's diagnosis and other ailments, made his funeral wishes clear before he died. 'I do want to make sure it's a celebration, not a mope-fest,' he said in a Dear Ozzy column for The Times of London in 2011. 'I'd also like some pranks: maybe the sound of knocking inside the coffin; or a video of me asking my doctor for a second opinion on his diagnosis of 'death,'' the musician added. 'There'll be no harping on the bad times.' Two days before the funeral, People reported that Sharon is 'heartbroken' in the wake of her husband's death. 'Everyone's rallying around her,' a source told the outlet. 'She's been the rock of this family for decades, and now it's her turn to be held up.' Meanwhile, Kelly broke her silence after Ozzy's passing on her Instagram Stories last Thursday. 'I feel unhappy I am so sad. I lost the best friend I ever had ðŸ'',' the former 'Fashion Police' co-host wrote. The quotes referenced lyrics from Black Sabbath's 'Changes.'

Hulk Hogan 'felt weak and embarrassed' before passing away
Hulk Hogan felt "weak" and "embarrassed" shortly before he passed away. The wrestling legend died from cardiac arrest on July 24, aged 71, and Eric Bischoff, his good friend, has now shared details of his last-ever meeting with Hogan. Speaking on the 83 Weeks with Eric Bischoff podcast, he explained: "I could tell he was weak. He sounded tired. "[Hogan] said, 'I really want to see you, but I'm kind of embarrassed for you to see me this way because I've been pretty sick.' When I look at you, I don't see the same thing you see when you look in the mirror, so f*** that, I'll be down Monday." Hogan's personality still shone through in their conversations, despite his health struggles. Eric shared: "It was work for him to have a conversation but he was the same guy." Earlier this week, Brooke Hogan took to social media to pay tribute to her dad and to reflect on their turbulent relationship. The 37-year-old star said on Instagram: "When he left this earth, it felt like part of my spirit left with him. I felt it before the news even reached us. I know he's at peace now, out of pain, and in a place as beautiful as he imagined. He used to speak about this moment with such wonder and hope. Like meeting God was the greatest championship he'd ever have." Brooke also used her post to "clear a few things up" regarding their estrangement. The realty star wrote: "It was a series of private phone calls no one will ever hear, know, or understand. My father was confiding in me about issues weighing on his heart, both personal and business. I offered to be a life raft in whatever capacity he needed. I told him he had my support. I begged him to rest, to take care of himself." Brooke and her husband, Steven Olesky, actually moved closer to the wrestler as he battled with health problems. She said: "We had been through almost 25 surgeries together, and then all of a sudden he didn't want me at surgeries…everything started getting covered in a thick veil. It was like there was a force field around him that I couldn't get through. (sic)"

Dave Franco confesses to getting intimate at Disneyland
Dave Franco once had sex at Disneyland. The 40-year-old actor - who is married to actress Alison Brie - has revealed that he once made love on the Pirates of the Caribbean ride at Disneyland. Appearing on the Call Her Daddy podcast, Dave shared: "Something may have happened at one point on the Pirates of the Caribbean ride. "The f***** up part about that is, I think there's cameras on every inch of that place, but we were pretty covert. We'll leave it at that..." Dave stars alongside his wife in Together, the new supernatural body horror film, but he actually prefers to keep his personal life out of the spotlight. The Hollywood star shared: "I generally am [a private person], which makes doing promo for any movie a little strange because it's not me in my element. "But at the same time, I've also gotten much better at this where I recognise this is a big part of my job and I'm just going to lean in and I'm going to do my best and I'm going to be as vulnerable as I can be." Meanwhile, Alison - who has worked with Dave on movies like 2023's Somebody I Used to Know - recently revealed that the couple's 'shorthand has gotten shorter and shorter' in their professional relationship. The actress and Dave love working together, but they're still "very selective" about the projects they commit to. Alison told Collider: 'I think, to do this project, we have acted in some things together, and by this point, Dave has directed me in a couple of movies, we wrote a film together. "Our shorthand has gotten shorter and shorter to where it's like a mind-meld, eye-contact thing. "We've been together over a decade, so has this couple in the movie. We're very selective about projects that we will act in together. "We read scripts quite often, where we would act together, and it's all about which one makes the most sense, and this one did."
