Carlos Santana Hospitalized After Suffering Medical Emergency During Soundcheck
Legendary guitarist Carlos Santana was hospitalized after experiencing a medical emergency during the soundcheck prior to a concert at San Antonio's Majestic Theatre on Tuesday (April 22nd). According to his manager, doctors later determined that the 77-year-old musician was suffering from dehydration.
The San Antonio show was postponed, but Santana's spring US tour is expected to continue as scheduled, resuming Wednesday night (April 23rd) in Sugar Land, Texas.

'Out of an abundance of caution and the health of Mr. Santana, the decision to postpone the show was the most prudent course of action,' manager Michael Vrionis stated. 'He is doing well and is looking forward to coming back to San Antonio soon as well as continuing his US Tour. Thank you all very much for your understanding. The show will be rescheduled soon.'
Back in July 2022, Santana canceled a handful of shows after collapsing onstage due to heat exhaustion and dehydration. Earlier this year, he postponed several dates of his Las Vegas residency after breaking his finger in a fall at his vacation home in Hawaii.
Prior to Tuesday night's postponement, Santana had played three shows with his eponymous band on the brief spring US tour. The outing is slated to run through an April 29th show in Nashville, leading up to an appearance at the New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival on May 1st.
Santana, who just landed at No. 16 on Consequence's list of the 100 Best Guitarists of All Time, will then resume his Vegas residency on May 14th, playing Sin City until May 25th, before embarking on a summer UK/European tour on June 9th. He'll then return to Vegas for more residency shows in September and November.
Tickets to Santana's upcoming shows can be purchased here.
The guitar icon and his band are in the midst of his ongoing 'Oneness' tour, which Consequence caught last summer at Jones Beach, New York. Read our review here, and see our photos below.

Are You Related to UK Royal Family? These Last Names Might Be a Clue
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. Could you be related to King Charles, Prince Harry and the rest of the British Royal Family? If you have one of the 35 last names identified in a new list from a United Kingdom-based genealogy website, several of which are common in the United States, you might be interested. The list, compiled by MyHeritage, included family names such as Stewart, Russell, Spencer and Howard, which all rank in a list of 200 most frequently occurring surnames, according to the most recent relevant U.S. Census data. Why It Matters The British monarchy has long captivated Americans, and tracing a surname back to royal bloodlines can make that fascination personal. Such connections offer insights into migration, cultural heritage, and how dynastic influence rippled across the Atlantic. What To Know MyHeritage's list included names spanning medieval royal houses (for example, Plantagenet, Capet, Valois and Bourbon), European dynasties (Habsburg, Romanov, Orange‑Nassau) and English aristocratic families (Spencer, Howard, Percy, Cavendish). The full list Stuart (Stewart) Spencer Plantagenet Lancaster York Tudor Savoy (Savoia, Savoie) de Medici (Medici) Capet Valois (de Valois) Bourbon (de Bourbon) Orléans (d'Orléans, de Orléans) Howard Seymour Percy Habsburg Bruce Orange-Nassau Oldenburg Glücksburg Romanov Baskerville Darcy (d'Arcy) Neville Astley Capell (Capel) Grey FitzAlan Courtenay Manners Russell Cavendish Talbot Hanover Windsor (Mountbatten-Windsor) (L) Bryce Dallas Howard poses on the red carpet at the BAFTAs on February 18, 2024. (C) King Charles III in King's Lynn, England, on July 23, 2025. (R) Kurt Russell in Beverly Hills, California,... (L) Bryce Dallas Howard poses on the red carpet at the BAFTAs on February 18, 2024.

More Invision/AP/Indigo/Getty Images/MediaPunch/IPX/Vianney Le Caer/Max Mumby/Faye Sadou A closer look at the names common in the U.S. According to U.S. Census Bureau data on surnames, the most recent list of which is from 2010, several of the above 35 names appear. There were 324,957 Stewarts recorded, and 36,540 Stuarts. Howard appeared 264,826 times, and Russell wasn't far behind with 221,558 occurrences. Spencer was listed just short of 140,000 times. Rarer names included Bruce, York, Lancaster and Seymour, all appearing between 25,000 and 55,000 times. Names that appeared less than 500 times included Cavendish, Astley and Romanov. And for those looking for the most direct link, there were 7,621 Windsors. Celebrities with royal connections? A number of famous Americans could claim a link to British aristocracy, per the MyHeritage list. Bryce Dallas Howard and her father Ron, for example, or perhaps Kristen Stewart or Kurt Russell. What Happens Next If you're curious about whether your family name connects you to royalty or aristocracy, remember that many surnames were adopted by unrelated families over time, so a shared last name alone is not proof of lineage. A good first step is to build your family tree. Start with yourself and work backward, carefully documenting each generation. This process grows quickly: just 10 generations back, you'll have over 1,000 direct ancestors, and by twenty generations, more than a million. To strengthen your research, explore historical records such as census data, birth and death certificates, and marriage records, available through platforms like MyHeritage.

Gen Zer Shows Concert Footage to Grandma—Not Prepared for What She Asks
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. A 13-year-old was left laughing after showing her grandmother a concert video of her favorite pop star—only to be met with an unexpected question. Hailey Ferguson (@itsyo_gurt) from Vancouver, Canada, attended Tate McRae's August 5 show at Rogers Arena and recorded the opening number, "Miss Possessive." Ferguson later posted the footage on TikTok with the overlay: "When I'm sad and then I remember the time I showed this video to my grandma and she asked if this was me." The post has since gained more than 184,000 views and over 30,000 likes. Her grandmother, 89-year-old retired teacher Sybil Ferguson from Ottawa Valley, made the remark during a family visit. "Grandma said, 'Wow,' and then asked if that was me on stage. I laughed because I'm nowhere near as good at singing and dancing as McRae. I told my grandma that was not me, and it became a funny moment," Hailey told Newsweek. A split image of Tate McRae performing on stage in Vancouver in Rogers Arena, Vancouver.

Since they live across the country from each other, Hailey sees her grandma only once or twice a year, making the memory even sweeter. The teen also shared how much she admires McRae, calling her "an inspiration to young girls wanting to pursue their dreams." McRae, a singer, songwriter, and dancer from Calgary, rose to fame after posting original songs to YouTube as a young teen. Hailey said she looks up to the artist not just for her talent but also for the courage it took to put herself out there so young. Hailey attended the concert with her dad, who wasn't familiar with McRae's music but still enjoyed the performance. Their seats were positioned at the side of the stage, giving them a unique view of both the backstage area and the performances. "We both appreciated that she is an excellent performer and knows how to put on a great show," Hailey said.

Her dad jumped online and managed to score tickets, making the night an unexpected highlight of her summer. "I love that people really like the video because I thought it was so sweet that my grandma thought that could be me," Hailey said. TikTok users quickly joined in on the fun, flooding the comments section with their own takes. "Just say 'yes grandma your granddaughter became a global pop sensation overnight'," one user posted. "I was wearing a tate T shirt and sm1 [someone] asked if it was me on the front the best compliment ever," another shared. "Gram was so real for that," a third viewer added. "I love grandparents," wrote Helen. "Why are they always like that. My grandma asked if [singer] Gracie Abrams on my wallpaper was me (I don't look at her at all)," Clara commented.

Outside Lands' biggest performer just canceled three festival appearances
Fans who caught Doechii 's electrifying Outside Lands performance in San Francisco earlier this month lucked out, because the rapper will not be hitting the stage again any time soon. The Grammy-winning singer abruptly canceled three European appearances on Monday, Aug. 18. She was scheduled to perform at France's Rock en Seine on Thursday, Aug. 21; All Points East in London on Saturday, Aug. 23; and Bristol's Forwards Festival on Sunday, Aug. 24. While each festival issued its own statement on social media, none of them provided a reason for the Florida native's absence. The 'Anxiety' hitmaker herself has not yet made any comments about the cancellations. Doechii's only other appearance since wowing festivalgoers at Outside Lands was at Pukkelpop in Belgium on Sunday, Aug. 17. Doechii's School of Hip-Hop spectacle at Golden Gate Park show drew tens of thousands of fans — a noticeably larger crowd than Doja Cat, whose headlining set followed on the first day of the festival. The highly-choreographed production featured songs from her 2024 EP 'Alligator Bites Never Heal' in addition to a handful of singles such as 'Alter Ego.' While many of her European fans won't get to see her live this summer, the Bay Area will have one more opportunity to witness the hip-hop artist in action this fall. She is scheduled to bring her Live From the Swamp Tour to San Francisco's Bill Graham Civic Auditorium on Nov. 7. All 12 scheduled shows on her tour are sold out.
