Tim McGraw cancels upcoming Colorado performance due to back surgery
Country music icon Tim McGraw is taking a necessary pause from the stage as he recovers from recent back surgery.
McGraw, 57, was forced to pull out of his upcoming performance at the Professional Bull Riders (PBR) event in Colorado, which was scheduled for July 21.
"Cross Canadian Ragweed will step in for Tim McGraw as he recovers from back surgery to open the Last Cowboy Standing Show on July 21 in Fort Collins — and we couldn't be more thrilled," PBR announced in a statement on their official Instagram page.
The American country-rock band reunited after a lengthy 15-year hiatus and shared how ecstatic they were to take the stage, as they sent their well-wishes to McGraw.
"The band is back together and ready to bring the house down in an unforgettable night of world-class music and the greatest bull riding on earth. You won't want to miss it," the announcement read.
"We're sending our very best to Tim for a quick recovery and hope to see him at a future PBR event."
It's unknown why McGraw needed back surgery.
Reps for McGraw did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital's request for comment.
The "One Bad Habit" crooner's canceled performance comes after he previously stepped away from a starring role in an untitled bull-riding show set to air on Netflix, according to Deadline.
The outlet reported that he was set to star and executive produce the show, but a source claimed that he stepped back because he needed to have back surgery, which would require recovery time.
Meanwhile, in May, the country star shared a health update during a podcast interview.
"I can tell you that after double knee replacements and three back surgeries and now a torn rotator cuff and a ruptured disc, all the things that are going on, there were times this year that I thought this might be it," he said on the "TL's Road House" podcast. "This might be time to hang it up."
McGraw shared at the time that he had to do his fitness routine and workouts carefully.
"I can't move quickly, there's no turning real quick to do something," he remarked. "Everything has to be very intentional; everything that I do has to be very methodical. I have to do cold plunges, I have to do infrared saunas. I have to do massages."
The country star kicked off his Standing Room Only Tour on March 14, 2024, and has scheduled dates until October 25, 2025.

Wellness Influencer ‘Liver King' Arrested After Posting A Series Of Videos Aimed At Joe Rogan
Wellness influencer Brian Johnson, 47, known to his millions of followers as the 'Liver King,' was arrested Tuesday and accused of making threats against popular podcaster and former MMA fighter Joe Rogan in a series of videos posted on his Instagram page. 'Joe Rogan, I'm calling you out, my name's Liver King. Man to man, I'm picking a fight with you,' Johnson said, holding two rifles in a video posted Monday. 'I have no training in jiujitsu; you're a black belt, you should dismantle me. But I'm picking a fight with you. Your rules, I'll come to you whenever you're ready.' Much of Johnson's Liver King content revolves around advising fitness enthusiasts to build a body like his through questionable practices like eating raw animal testicles or, as the name alludes to, raw liver. In 2022, leaked emails revealed that he had been spending approximately $11,000 a month injecting himself with steroids and human growth hormone. Johnson was highlighted in the Netflix documentary series 'Untold: The Liver King,' which came out this year. He made other concerning videos leading up to his arrest, many of which show him rambling. Austin police told HuffPost they were notified of Johnson's alleged threats Tuesday morning, and observed him traveling to Austin while continuing to challenge Rogan online. It's unclear why Johnson posted a series of videos challenging Rogan. He told the podcaster in a follow-up video, 'I actually have something to fight for' and 'We'll see you soon. Real tension I have with you. Real fucking beef.' Rogan has hosted well-known celebrities and figures on his podcast, 'The Joe Rogan Experience,' but has never had Johnson on his show. Austin police said Rogan told them that the two had never interacted, and that he considered the posts threatening. The podcaster had criticized Johnson's steroid use and his general demeanor in an episode released two years ago with fitness influencer Derek, known for the brand 'More Plates, More Dates.' 'The guy calls himself the Liver King, and he's this guy who walks around everywhere with no shirt on. I've seen him in Vegas with no shirt on, big bushy beard, super jacked, and he was telling people that the way he gets that way is by sunning his balls,' Rogan said. Austin police arrested Johnson on Tuesday at the Four Seasons Hotel and took him into custody without incident on a misdemeanor charge of terroristic threat. It's unclear if the wellness influencer has an attorney representing him. Video posted on Johnson's account shows him wearing a burgundy sweatsuit promoting a fight between him and Rogan as he paces around a hotel room rambling with his wife, Bozena 'Barbara' Johnson aka the 'Liver Queen.' He was later seen being patted down by officers while in handcuffs.

‘M3GAN 2.0' Reviews: Is AI Robot Sequel Programmed For Success?
M3GAN (Amie Donald, voiced by Jenna Davis) in "M3GAN 2.0." M3GAN 2.0 — the sequel to the 2022 horror hit starring Allison Williams — is new in theaters this week. Read on to find out what critics have to say about the movie. Directed by M3GAN filmmaker Gerard Johnstone, M3GAN 2.0 plays in Thursday previews before opening in theaters nationwide on Friday. The official summary for M3GAN 2.0 reads, 'Two years after M3GAN, a marvel of artificial intelligence, went rogue and embarked on a murderous (and impeccably choreographed) rampage and was subsequently destroyed, M3GAN's creator Gemma (Williams) has become a high-profile author and advocate for government oversight of A.I. "Meanwhile, Gemma's niece Cady (Violet McGraw), now 14, has become a teenager, rebelling against Gemma's overprotective rules. Unbeknownst to them, the underlying tech for M3GAN has been stolen and misused by a powerful defense contractor to create a military-grade weapon known as Amelia (Ivanna Sakhno), the ultimate killer infiltration spy. "But as Amelia's self-awareness increases, she becomes decidedly less interested in taking orders from humans. Or in keeping them around. With the future of human existence on the line, Gemma realizes that the only option is to resurrect M3GAN (Amie Donald, voiced by Jenna Davis) and give her a few upgrades, making her faster, stronger, and more lethal. As their paths collide, the original AI icon is about to meet her match.' M3GAN 2.0 also stars Brian Jordan Alvarez and Jen Van Epps, who return from the 2022 film as Gemma's tech team members Cole and Tess. New to the cast for the sequel are Aristotle Athari, Timm Sharp and Jemaine Clement. The review embargo for M3GAN 2.0 was lifted on Wednesday. As of the publication of this article, the film has earned a 62% 'fresh' rating from Rotten Tomatoes critics based on 61 reviews. RT's Critics Consensus and Popcornmeter score from verified user ratings is still pending. What Do Individual Critics Have To Say About 'M3GAN 2.0'? John Nugent of Empire Magazine is among the top critics on Rotten Tomatoes who gave M3GAN 2.0, writing, 'M3GAN 2.0 is more absurd, self-aware silliness: a riot of timely tech paranoia, with almost no horror but a ton of successful comedy. Slay, queen!' Robbie Colin of the Daily Telegraph (UK) also got a charge out of M3GAN 2.0, writing on RT, 'This uproarious (if not especially scary) sequel has the measure of the task at hand's silliness, and leans into it with infectious glee.' The film also received a 'fresh' rating on RT from Clarissa Loughrey of the Independent (UK), who writes, 'M3GAN 2.0 is, admittedly, a pretty bizarre conflagration of tones and ideas. But so were most of the Child's Play films ... and the rollercoaster effect of never quite knowing what genre [Gerard] Johnstone might pull from next is a key part of the fun.' On the flip side, David Fear of Rolling Stone gives M3GAN 2.0 a 'rotten' review on RT, writing, 'Her model is 2.0. The overbaked, underwhelming, narratively restless movie itself is 0.0 percent watchable.' David Rooney of The Hollywood Reporter also gives M3GAN 2.0 a 'rotten' review on RT, writing in his summary, 'A convoluted mishmash with shades of Terminator 2: Judgment Day, Mission: Impossible and the Austin Powers franchise. There are amusing moments reminiscent of the original, but in terms of tone and coherence, the movie loses its way.' Alison Foreman of IndieWire isn't a fan of M3GAN 2.0, either, writing in his 'rotten' review on RT, 'M3GAN's greatest asset was never her heart, but her lack of one. It's somewhat baffling, then, that she is easily the most likable character in a lineup of algorithmically hateable humans.' Rated PG-13, M3GAN 2.0 plays in Thursday previews before opening in theaters nationwide on Friday.
