Block heels standing at around 3 to 4 inches in height finished off the silhouette, offering Lipa a walkable boost, allowing her to dance and move around the stage with ease. Custom styles have become exceedingly popular for musicians while on tour. This practice allows for multiple pairs of the same silhouette to be made to the star's specific needs and measurements. This means performers can use and abuse said silhouettes knowing that they can rely on back-ups if issues arise. Taylor Swift utilized custom footwear during her 'Eras Tour.' The 'Argylle' actress paired her rhinestoned footwear with black mesh tights and a corsetted bodysuit that was reminiscent of Madonna's Jean Paul Gaultier's cone-bra look. Lipa's look featured halter straps and a structural fit. When it comes to shoes, Lipa often goes bold. The 'Levitating' singer's go-to styles are usually retro and bright, such as Mach & Mach pumps, Bottega Veneta platforms and Prada boots. However, there's no heel too high for the musician; she's also worn six-inch heels from brands like GCDS. For more casual ensembles, the singer can also be spotted in sneakers, slides and boots from Miu Miu, Balenciaga and Natasha Zinko. Lipa's 'Radical Optimism Tour' began on Nov. 5, 2024, and will end on Thu, Oct 16, 2025. The Albanian singer's third tour features songs from her third studio album of the same name. Lipa will be taking her tour to Asia, Europe, North America and the Oceania region.

Originally appeared on E! Online Tracy Morgan suffered a health emergency at a recent basketball game. The 30 Rock alum was wheeled out of Madison Square Garden during the New York Knicks' game against the Miami Heat on March 17.

"I'm from the ghetto and after I came out the coma, I was blind for a week and where I come from, you don't want to be blind for a second. All kinds of s--t started coming up missing in my hospital room." But Morgan—who shares daughter Maven, 11, with Megan Wollover as well as adult sons Gitrid, Malcolm and Tracy Jr. with ex Sabina Morgan—turned his pain into purpose by sharing his experience in the special. 'This was a bad thing that happened to me," he told People in 2017. "I wanted to tell my story, but I also want to continue my standup career because all the great things that ever happened to me in my life came through standup.' Prior to his accident, Morgan also received a kidney transplant in 2010 from ex Tanisha Hall, telling E! News the following year, "I'd like to thank Tanisha for donating my kidney to me."
