Scorpions Cancel South American Dates as Singer Klaus Meine's Battles Respiratory Infection
German rockers the Scorpions have run into health issues amidst their 60th anniversary celebrations, cancelling a pair of South American dates due to a respiratory infection suffered by singer Klaus Meine. The group took to social media on the weekend to reveal they would be cancelling their Saturday (April 26) date in Buenos Aires, Argentina to Meine's health.

'Klaus has contracted a virus and suspected laryngitis and is unfortunately unable to sing. The band send huge apologies to all their beloved fans in Argentina and are extremely disappointed not to be able to play.' Now, the group have been forced to cancel another date as Meine's condition fails to improve, with the band again noting that their appearance at the Monsters of Rock festival in Bogotá, Colombia has now been axed. 'Klaus has still not recovered from the virus and respiratory infection that forced the recent Buenos Aires cancellation for Scorpions and is unfortunately still unable to sing,' a statement read. 'The band send massive apologies to all their loyal fans in Colombia and are again extremely disappointed not to be able to play in one of their favourite countries.' In both instances, the group noted their determination to 'make every effort to return' to Argentina and Colombia. The Scorpions launched their 60th anniversary tour in March, launching with a series of dates in Mexico before appearing in Brazil and Chile. Initially, the shows were scheduled to launch in February with a Las Vegas residency at PH Live at Planet Hollywood. However, these dates were postponed due to drummer Mikkey Dee's ongoing recovery process following a diagnosis of sepsis. 'We regret to inform you that due to Mikkey Dee's ongoing recovery from his recent hospitalization, we have made the decision to postpone our Coming Home to Las Vegas Residency to August 2025,' Scorpions wrote at the time. 'The health and well-being of our brother is of the utmost importance. We wish Mikkey a full and speedy recovery and look forward to rocking with you all again soon!' Currently, Scorpions are scheduled to resume their tour with a Ecuador show on May 3, with shows in Mexico to follow days later. A series of European dates throughout June and July will precede their U.S. return in August, where they will perform their postponed Las Vegas residency.

Kelly Clarkson stays busy: Singer books new Las Vegas residency to start this summer
Las Vegas is about to get another helping of Kelly Clarkson. The Grammy-winning 'American Idol' alumna-turned-daytime talk star announced Thursday she will return to Sin City for a new residency set to kick off in the summer. The 'Since U Been Gone' and 'Breakaway' hitmaker will begin her 18-show Studio Sessions circuit at the Colosseum at Caesars Palace starting July 4. The residency features two legs with the first set ending Aug. 16 and the second running Nov. 7 to Nov. 15. Studio Sessions will be the second Las Vegas residency from the 'Kelly Clarkson Show' host, who rose to pop stardom after winning the inaugural season of 'American Idol' in 2002. Clarkson in 2019 announced she was set to take over PH Live (formerly Zappos Theater and Bakkt Theater) at Planet Hollywood in 2020 with her Invincible residency, but like most live music events that year, it was derailed by the COVID-19 pandemic and never manifested. Years later she brought her Chemistry: An Intimate Evening with Kelly Clarkson residency to PH Live. That 14-show circuit began July 2023 and ended February 2024. 'I'm so excited to be back in Vegas!' said Clarkson in a news release. 'We're bringing the studio to the stage this time with 'Studio Sessions!' See y'all there!' Clarkson released her most recent album, 'Chemistry,' in June 2023. The release, which drew from the pop star's divorce from country music manager Brandon Blackstock, earned a 2024 Grammy nomination for pop vocal album. Beyond music, Clarkson has also stayed busy with various TV commitments including her daytime series, which in recent years brought her from L.A. to New York. 'The Kelly Clarkson Show' secured a Season 7 renewal in December. Clarkson will take over the Colosseum after Rod Stewart, Blake Shelton and Garth Brooks wrap up their respective sets of shows. Tickets for Clarkson's Caesars Palace concerts go on sale Feb. 14. More information about ticket presale and the exact dates of the residency is available on the hotel's website.
