Did you skip your workout today? No worries, just go to a Pink concert and you will have your fix! My god, from the car ride to the parking lot, in line to our seat until show time....I couldn't stop moving. Then the she devil cardo instructor came on stage and took moving to a whole new level. It was impossible to stay still, even for only a minute...and it was awesome. Pink is fearce! She commands. She directs. She owns the stage, audience, costume, the night. She is a sweet rebel that does something crazy to you when she's singing. She makes you feeeeel or want to kick someone's ass. It's incredible. You could be riled up, fist pumping and jumping away. Loosing all sense of personal space but so is everyone else so it's cool. Then the next set, phones and lighters in the air, lights down low and you are trying to catch your breath so you can hear or try to sing along with the lyrics to your fifteenth favorite song of the night. And it goes on and on like this...all...night...long! Day-night. No matter. She doesn't stop. It's electric and chaotic and raw and I have to say, funny. Yeah she's a ball buster and lights up the crowd not only with her music, but her personality. And that's hot.

Report as inappropriate

So you are sick of P!nk flying around. You've seen her do it time and time again at award show performances. Seeing it live is nothing like that! P!nk does everything from the acrobatics, to acoustic, throwback 90s R&B dancing all while singing LIVE. Through out it all she sounded amazing. She engaged the crowd and took us with her on a beautiful journey.

I usually do not care for arena tours but she proved me wrong. She used the whole arena; not just the stage. She showed us her beautiful acrobatic talents. Suspended from the top of the arena she got close to everyone in the building at some point in time. Much better than a stage that moves to different parts if you ask me. P!nk covered music off each one of her albums. She reminded us all of her talent and staying power. Yeah we know she is a bad ass but she showed her beauty and grace as well. She danced, yes danced her best 90s R&B moves to cover the beginning of her career.

She shared video footage of her family which she keeps pretty secluded. It was touching to see miss Bad Ass showing her vulnerable side, reminding us all that she in a way is just like us. Amazing show for an amazing talent.

There are simply no words to describe the experience that is a Pink concert. I have attended a myriad of concerts for a variety of artists and styles, and nothing I have attended has ever come close to the energy and effort that Pink has shown on multiple occasions. Using her time on stage to its full power, she covers all the bases. Usually starting with one of her many classics, she alternates fairly between the singalong songs of her popular past and the new upbeat works that have dominated the radio. Whilst showing off her vocal talents she is also not a stranger to showcasing her other multiple talents, from ribbon climbing, bungee jumping and crowdsurfing in a giant inflatable ball! Her interaction with her audience is exemplary and heartfelt, often promoting LGBT rights and gender equality. Each time I have attended one of her performances I have never been disappointed, and plan to attend many more in the future. I would highly recommend anyone who enjoys a lively and fun-filled night to come along and enjoy it with me!

This tour date was my second time seeing P!NK on the Beautiful Trauma tour. (I got to travel to Charlottesville for a date on the tour in 2019.) When the Charlotte, NC, date was announced for this March, I had hoped to be able to go because it's near my birthday this time. This date was just as awesome. (I have listened to P!NK's albums since her first album was released when I was an assistant manager in a music store.)

P!NK is personal, on point, and gives audience participation a new meaning. She's working hard to keep her body prepped to do everything she does on stage, and as a female in her age group as well as a lifelong singer and musician's spouse, I applaud her voice and her choices in everything she puts together for her concert tour dates. If you were hesitant to go to the tour date because you hear her music and do not go to concerts, then I recommend you try to go to at least one tour date. You will not be disappointed!

I had seen P!nk live at Madison Square Garden in NYC once before when she had started using the silks onstage, so I knew her shows were impressive. But nothing prepared me for last night. Not only does she entertain with a well-choreographed show, she’s humble, she’s funny and the show brims with passion. This is a well-rehearsed production, yet she still makes it feel spontaneous. There are lots of fast rock-out songs with pyrotechnics but also quiet moments where her voice shines during the ballads. Highlights for me were the nod to Gwen Stefani/No Doubt blend of Just a Girl with her own Funhouse and her flying all around the arena like Tinkerbell during So What. What a phenomenal show. What a phenomenal performance. P!nk sure gives you your money’s worth. I tend to avoid big stadium concerts, but for P!nk I’ll gladly make an exception. Go see her! You won’t regret it.

As always, P!nk is the consummate performer. She isn't happy just standing on a stage and performing from her vast catalog of hits. She puts on a show complete with a kick-a$$ band and a whole troupe of dancers. She has had years of gymnastics training and it shows in her daring aerial moves. After seeing many of her shows, I'm always so disappointed when I see other artists just stand there and sing. They can't hold a candle to Alecia Beth Moore Hart aka P!nk! I take my Kindle along to other shows but not with P!nk. I'm afraid I might miss something, so my eyes are glued to the stage. If you haven't had a chance to see her, add it to your bucket list. You won't be sorry.

Pink, seeing her live made me love her even more! She has LOTS of energy and is mega fun!! It was a night of fun, excitement, and dancing like you don't care. Pink is personal and someone you really want to be around. Her song "So What," was THE BEST! She was hooked up to wires and singing, not lip sinking lip sinking and soaring all over the theater. She was doing flips and spinning perfectly! She didn't show any tiredness at all. She did some more acrobatics for other songs that were pretty amazing as well. Best concert I have ever been too! Hope to see her again and again!

When I first bought the tickets they seemed expensive but having attended the show I think they were worth every penny.

I felt that Pink is an amazing entertainer who engaged with the audience and also showed appreciation for the other performers. Not only this but she has ( as evidenced by the video clips) done lots of ambassadorship things for worthy causes.

I felt she can across as a very warm caring person of incredible talent and I enjoyed the whole event.

Would definitely like to see her in concert again. Truly spectacular.

Amazing visual set and performances. Pink, as always, commanded the stage and the air all while belting her touching, hilarious and energetic songs. This time complete with a version of Smells Like Teen Spirit that confused some but had her long time fans screaming their lungs out. If ever given the chance to see her...take it!!! My two friends who kind of knew her music saw her for the first time at this show and have now declared it their favorite show of all time!

What can I say other than Pink is totally wonderful, a diva artist with a sweetness that is apparent even on stage, her acrobatic stunts are simply amazing, the state was beyond amazing, the dancers, the music assemble, the singing, this woman is a true artist, we loved every minute of it and I am so happy we were able to see her perform live, I place her to the 3 tops concerts I have ever attended. Love her!!!!!

Pink‘s New Flight Path: Pop’s Bionic Woman on Her Death-Defying Stadium Tour and ‘Trustfall’ Album

In a world of hyphenates,   Pink all but dares us to come up with one to describe her place in the pop landscape, besides anything so earthbound as “singer-songwriter.” Maybe “gymnast-therapist” would do it — her appeal mixes literal feats of daring with songs of dysfunction and its hoped-for cessation. As she gets to the inevitable moment in any of her shows where she acrobatically flies over arenas in a harness while encouraging her audiences to get it together before it’s too late, it’s not always clear whether the work she’s doing should be subject to American Psychological Association or Federal Aviation Administration approval.

She is not kidding about the hip replacement; hip surgery was just one of the things that had her on the operating table during the pandemic. She is freshly scarred but un­­daunted, as a Pink tour without aerialism is like a Pink album without multiple uses of the word “fuck.”

“Having breaks is good for my voice. Not so good for the body,” she says after putting Habanero Mountain Guy outside to sniff the sea air. “Especially during COVID — I gained 36 pounds. All I did was make sourdough and then eat the sourdough. And then I had not just the hip surgery but double disc replacement in my neck. So now I’m the bionic woman. I’ve lost those 36 pounds, and I am stronger than I’ve ever been in my life. And I’m ready to go, and I’m ready to get the  hell  out of here. I’ve been home way too long.”

There are motivations, especially when you have Tina Turner’s manager, Roger Davies, as your own. Asked if she ever queried Davies about any secrets to Turner’s success in keeping the touring regime going as long as she did, Pink says it never occurred to her — she knows what she witnessed with her own two eyes.

“I saw Tina when she was 69 in Christian Louboutins, running ar­­ound the stage, full choreography, like a crazy person. And I thought to myself:  Shit. So now I have no ex­cuse.  I look at the greats and I wanna keep up. I want to keep pushing it and be better — a better human, a better mom, a better daughter, a better sister, a better performer, a better writer. And age works against you, right? But at 43, I’m stronger than I’ve ever been in my life. I could kick my 33-year-old ass.”

As for the specifics of moonlighting as a stuntwoman, she says, “Well, it’s always interesting the day the insurance company comes to yes or no your insurance. And every time they say yes, I’m like, ‘Are you kidding me? They actually said yes?’” She shrugs. This may be the time when she’ll need to trust that the crew that keeps her aloft really does consider her World’s Best Boss.

The real test of Pink’s nerve is that she has en­­listed two of the most powerful female vocalists on the planet, Brandi Carlile and Pat Benatar , as her direct support acts for the “Summer Carnival” stadium tour (the North American part of which begins July 24 in Toronto and ends Oct. 9 in Phoenix, following a European leg in June). Pink and Car­lile go back — they wrote a still-unrecorded song together 15 years ago. “The first time I heard her sing, I was in my car and it was when her voice cracks during ‘The Story,’ and I had to pull my car over,” Pink remembers. She met Benatar at October’s Rock and Roll Hall of Fame ceremony, where Pink and Carlile were saluting Dolly Parton by singing “Coat of Many Colors” while Benatar and husband Neil Giraldo were getting their own honors. Pink figured, and had it confirmed, that Benatar had to be classically trained to be singing like that at 70. “I ran up to her that night and was like, ‘Can we be best friends?’”

“I feel like I’ve found three voices in 43 years,” she declares. “My first voice was opera, because I used to sing ‘Phantom of the Opera’ and ‘Les Miz’ — things like that. Then my second voice was R&B-ish, but I sounded like Alvin from Alvin and the Chipmunks. But I was also smoking, and I was steadily getting raspier and raspier, which is why Janis was an easy sell for me. I loved it, but then it started going too far. Billy Mann, my friend and songwriting partner, sat me down and said, ‘I think you’re at the point now where you have to ask yourself, “Am I a singer or a smoker?”’ Hmm. ‘Shoot. I think you’re right.’ So I quit.” This happened around 2010, when she was pregnant with her first child, Willow, now 12. “And then I found this grown-up voice that I have and got two octaves back. My voice has never been stronger. But I don’t have that rasp anymore, and I miss that — I wish I could have kept a little bit of it. But,” she adds with a shrug and a sip, “I chose life instead.”

Making the conscious choice to go on is a big theme of “Trustfall.” Not entirely ironically, it starts with a ballad about death and the afterlife, “When I Get There,” prompted somewhat by her father’s death in August 2021, as well as mortal thoughts that arose when both she and her son contracted bad cases of COVID. Starting the album off with a non-banger was as conscious a choice as everything Pink does.

“I feel like we’re all in this constant state of  overwhelm , and so we put our feelings away just so that we can get through a day. I wanted to find a way back to the truth and the authentic feelings. So opening the album with that, instead of like, ‘Hey, let’s ease into each other,’ it’s like, ‘No, no. Sit down. I want to talk to you. We’re gonna clear all the bullshit away and have a  conversation .’ That’s how I am as a person. If you ask me how I am, how much time do you have? So ‘When I Get There’ as an album-opener was my way of saying, ‘Let’s talk about real stuff.’””

It’s easy to get the sense that for many fans, it’s “ me and Pink against the world”  — whether that has to do with her support of the LGBTQ community or advocacy for older women or disaffected-youth friendliness. “A lot of my friends have teenagers — I do not yet, thank God — and they all have just debilitating anxiety.” She describes playing the new song “Turbulence,” which describes life in terms of an extended panic attack, for her daughter’s friends, “and, like, five of them were just sobbing.” The findings showing that more young people than ever describe themselves as dealing with crippling depression or anxiety disturbs her — “I don’t know where we’re going with this” — even if it’s not surprising to a woman who’s included the word “trauma” in album titles and written existentially brooding anthems like “What About Us.”

She leans forward to deliver all of us existentially challenged grown-ups a pep talk, like she did with her daughter’s friends that day she played them “Turbulence.” “Just let it go, man,” Pink advises. “Just be a dolphin and let that go right off your back. We have to have joy too. We have to laugh. We have to love. We have to cuddle. We have to suck the marrow out of the bones of life, because we’re still here. The wildfires haven’t come yet.” Spoken like a true Santa Barbara-area resident, invoking the joy of sea mammals and the prospect of everything going up in flames all in the same breath.

Pink may be known for her feats of derring-do, but there’s no fearlessness like withstanding the slings and arrows of being a reasonably outspoken public figure. Twenty-three years into a career, does she have the satisfaction of thinking that, by now, people get her?

“I definitely don’t think a large far-right contingent gets me at all. and they don’t want to and they’re never going to, because I represent so many things that they hate. And I think people that only listen to the singles don’t get me, because there’s so much else. When I meet people, they’re like, ‘God, you’re not scary.’ And I’m like, ‘Well, don’t tell anyone. That’s my cover, man.’ But I’ve kind of stopped caring a little bit. I’m sad about people thinking that being an opinionated woman is a bad thing. I’m sad. That deeply saddens me. But I’ve stopped trying to explain it.” It’s not something she’s only ever experienced from afar. “I think it sticks with me because my husband told me, when we met, ‘he was like, “’I thought you were just like this angry man-eater.’ And I was like, ‘I am . But, I’m also this.'” Carey Hart got over it; not everyone did. “The things people say to me online, it’s insane,” she says.

The most personal song on the new record may be the harrowing ballad “Lost Cause,” sung from the point of view of a woman who just wants to be told she isn’t a piece of shit. Written by Stephen Wrabel, Sam de Jong and Sam Romans, it resonated with Pink because of a conversation she had with Hart. “He came to me a long time ago — at a good moment, when we  weren’t  arguing — and said, ‘Hey, when we argue and you say really mean things, it hurts me and I really need you to stop.’ I was blown away, like, ‘Whoa, what a beautiful thing to do, Carey, to bring that up at a time where everything’s going well.’ Time moves on and you both get mean after a while, and the world is mean,” she avows, attesting that charity needs to begin at home. 

“And,” she adds, further explicating the theme of “Lost Cause,” “I’m like, ‘You can call me a loser, but just don’t tell me I’m unredeemable.’ Everybody  is redeemable. Unless they’re gone — unless they’re in the dirt. I don’t believe old dogs can’t learn new tricks.”

Pink reveals 'TRUSTFALL' track list featuring collaboration with Chris Stapleton and more

"TRUSTFALL" is out Feb. 17.

Pink has revealed the track list for her highly anticipated upcoming album "TRUSTFALL."

Various venues worldwide revealed the titles of different tracks Wednesday, with international stadiums and arenas crafting unique billboards to reveal a new song off the upcoming album.

Madison Square Garden revealed there's a song called "When I Get There," while Paris' La Défense Arena put up a billboard showing a song named "Turbulence." The venue also noted that the track is one of the final songs to appear on the album.

A few of the billboards confirmed collaborations, such as Spectrum Center in Charlotte, North Carolina, revealing the track "Long Way To Go," which will feature The Lumineers. Another collaboration announcement came from the Bolton Wanderers Football Club in Bolton, England, which announced the track "Kids In Love," which features Swedish sister duo First Aid Kit.

Pink shared the full track list on all her social media accounts as well. Her upcoming album will feature a duet with Chris Stapleton; the two previously sang together on "Love Me Anyway" on Pink's 2019 album "Hurts 2B Human."

Pink previously released the album's title track and the anthem "Never Not Gonna Dance Again." She also debuted the "Trustfall" music video last week.

During an interview with "Good Morning America" in November, the singer said she believes the upcoming album is possibly the best album she's ever made.

Event Details

Critically-acclaimed singer-songwriter and global pop icon P!NK released her highly anticipated ninth studio album, TRUSTFALL , out now via RCA Records .

Featuring the hit singles “Never Gonna Not Dance Again” and “TRUSTFALL,” as well as her latest release, “When I Get There,” TRUSTFALL marks some of P!NK’s most vulnerable and exhilarating work yet. Featuring collaborations with Chris Stapleton , The Lumineers , and First Aid Kit , as well as tapping notable songwriters and producers Max Martin , Shellback , Greg Kurstin , FRED , Billy Mann , and more, TRUSTFALL is an exploration of the highs and lows of uncertainty, freedom, and letting go.

To celebrate the album, P!NK will make special appearances next week on NBC’s TODAY and CBS’ The Late Show with Stephen Colbert on February 21 , followed by a show takeover special on The Drew Barrymore Show airing February 27 .

“T his might be the album I’m most proud of,” says P!NK . “Get in your coziest pair of sweats, grab yourself an hour of self-care, and start on track one. Two ingredients needed: tissues and dance shoes.”

In tandem with its release, P!NK has also announced The TRUSTFALL Tour . Produced by Live Nation, the 14-city tour kicks off on October 12 making stops at arenas across North America, including a date at Madison Square Garden in New York. The fall tour will follow P!NK’s previously announced 2023 Summer Carnival Stadium Tour , which will mark her highly-anticipated return to touring with special guests Brandi Carlile and 2022 Hall of Fame inductees Pat Benatar & Neil Giraldo on select dates.

Pink Extends ‘Trustfall’ With Deluxe Edition Featuring Marshmello, Sting, Brandi Carlile

• By Larisha Paul

Larisha Paul

Pink isn’t quite done with her Trustfall just yet. The singer and songwriter has extended her ninth studio album with three additional songs and six live recordings captured during the world tour she completed in support of the record.

Among the new releases appears “Dreaming,” her collaboration with Marshmello and Sting. There are special guests on the listing of live songs, too, including Brandi Carlile on the Sinead O’Connor tribute cover of “Nothing Compares 2 U” and Pink’s daughter, Willow Sage Hart, on “Cover Me in Sunshine.”

“I want you back in my belly,” Pink told her daughter in Bolton, England, when the 12-year-old made a special appearance for the performance. Turning back to the crowd, who were chanting Willow’s name, the singer added: “She smiled and waved; that was a first; she’s never smiled and waved before.”

“When I was a little girl, my mom grew up in Atlantic City and I used to go down to the Ocean City Boardwalk with my ten dollars and I would make a demo tape… I would make a little cassette tape and imagine it was my demo for the record company,” Pink told the crowd in Cincinnati. “And it would always be either ‘Greatest Love of All’ by Whitney Houston or ‘Nothing Compares 2 U’ by Sinead O’Connor. So in honor of Sinead, and in honor of my very, very talented friend Brandi Carlile I asked her if she would come out here and sing this song with me.”

Pink Announces Summer 2023 Stadium Tour with Brandi Carlile, Pat Benatar & Neil Giraldo and More

Alt-rock band Grouplove and DJ KidCutUp will also join Pink for the 21-date Summer Carnival 2023 tour

Pink will be flying around stadiums this summer on her biggest United States tour to date!

Fresh off the release of her new single "Never Gonna Not Dance Again," the Grammy-winning singer-songwriter, 43, announced on Monday that she'll be embarking on a North American stadium tour next summer alongside opening acts Brandi Carlile , Pat Benatar & Neil Giraldo, Grouplove and DJ KidCutUp.

The 21-date trek, titled the Summer Carnival 2023 tour, will kick off with a July 24th concert at Rogers Centre in Toronto and hit venues in Boston, New York City, Chicago, Detroit, Philadelphia, Los Angeles and Las Vegas before wrapping up at Chase Field in Phoenix on Oct. 9.

Tickets go on presale for Citi cardmembers from Nov. 15 at 10 a.m. local time through Nov. 20 at 11 p.m. local time. Another presale for members of the Verizon Up loyalty program will go on sale for select shows from Nov. 17 at noon local time through Nov. 20 at 11 p.m. local time. General on-sale tickets then become available Nov. 21 at 10 a.m. local time via Live Nation. More information can be found on Pink's Live Nation page .

Grouplove and DJ KidCutUp will perform as opening acts on all 21 dates, while Carlile as well as Benatar and Giraldo will each appear at select shows.

Ahead of the tour's announcement, both Pink and Carlile, 41, performed a tribute to Dolly Parton at the 2022 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction ceremony last week. On Sunday, they teased the stadium tour on social media with a hilarious video filmed backstage at the event.

"Sorry, I'm not trying to ignore you. I just have to make a really important phone call," said Pink in the clip while seated alongside Carlile — before calling the "Right on Time" singer on the phone.

Both musicians greeted each other on the playfully tongue-in-cheek phone call before Pink expressed feeling "really afraid" to ask Carlile a question. "Oh, I'm married," replied Carlile with a laugh, referencing her wife of a decade, Catherine Shepherd.

"Yeah, I do love your wife," giggled Pink, "But will you go on tour with me?"

"F--- yeah!" exclaimed Carlile. "Are we doing this?"

"Yeah!" replied Pink, before the performers shared a high five and ended the pseudo call.

Last week, Pink released her latest single "Never Gonna Not Dance Again" alongside a music video. She'll give the track its live TV debut performance at the 2022 American Music Awards on Nov. 20, where she'll also perform a tribute to the late Olivia Newton-John.

Drake, Ice Spice, and More Up for Kids' Choice Awards This Year

Kendrick Lamar was not nominated.

Drake and Ice Spice are both among the artists who stand to bag a Kids’ Choice Awards trophy this year.

Tuesday, Nickelodeon announced the full class of 2024 hopefuls, more than 50 of whom are first-time nominees. Naturally, our nation’s leading icons of sustaining friendship and aquatic ingenuity, SpongeBob SquarePants and Patrick Star , are set to host the proceedings, which will premiere live from Bikini Bottom on July 13.

The Nick team is promising a "slime-filled" and "immersive" viewing experience, complete with a presumably stacked lineup of musical performances and presenters. As for the SpongeBob focus, that's due to this July marking 25 years since the beloved series first premiered on the network.

This year’s Favorite Male Artist category sees the fresh-out-of-a-historic-beef 6 God nominated alongside Bad Bunny , Ed Sheeran , Justin Timberlake , Post Malone , The Weeknd , Travis Scott , and Usher . Drake has a slew of past KCA nominations to his name dating back to a Favorite Song of the Year nod in 2016 for his massive Views era cut "Hotline Bling." In February, Drake utilized some decidedly Nickelodeon antics by sliming a fan during a Nashville stop on his It's All a Blur tour.

His " Slime You Out " track with SZA, meanwhile, was notably promoted using a photo of post-sliming Halle Berry at a prior KCA broadcast. According to Berry, the pic did not receive her personal blessing prior to Drake throwing it up on social media.

Spice, meanwhile, is a first-time nominee and is up for a trio of potential wins this July including Favorite Music Collaboration (" Barbie World " with Nicki Minaj and Aqua, plus the "Karma" remix with Taylor Swift ) and Favorite Breakout Artist. The latter category sees Spice joined by Coco Jones, Jelly Roll , Reneé Rapp, Tate McRae, Teddy Swims, Tyla , and Victoria Monét.

Below, see the full list of 2024 KCA nominees.

Is Shania Twain Changing Her Iconic Brad Pitt Lyric in 'That Don't Impress Me Much?' Singer Teases a Swap

T he country star said that she may swap out Brad Pitt for Harry Styles in ‘That Don't Impress Me Much’ during an upcoming performance

Is Shania Twain 's "That Don’t Impress Me Much" getting a redo?

During an appearance on the BBC podcast Sidetracked with Annie and Nick on June 3, the country star, 58, teased that a new celeb heartthrob may get a callout in her 1997 hit song. In the track, Twain croons, "OK, so you're Brad Pitt / That don't impress me much."

In the interview, Twain was asked that if she was writing the lyrics now, would she swap out Brad Pitt for another man? She teased that she may do so while she performs the song during her upcoming set at the Glastonbury Festival in England on June 30. “I would say Harry Styles . . . and it sings good too,” said Twain.

She explained, “I sort of see Brad Pitt as a James Dean of his generation and I see Harry Styles as that as well. He’s rugged, but pretty, it’s like a charm that he has.” 

Twain also confirmed that it wouldn't be the first time that she swapped out Pitt for another person. “At a live show, I cheekily [sang] Ryan Reynolds since he was there," Twain recalled. "It was very cute,”

In a January 2023 interview with Today.com , Twain recalled meeting Styles, 30, backstage at one of his shows when “he was just really on his way up." Styles said that he listened to Twain's music with his mom while growing up.

In a 2017 interview with Entertainment Tonight , Styles said that his “music and fashion [were] influenced [by] Shania Twain. I think she's amazing."

Styles later covered "Still the One" with his then-opening tour act Kacey Musgraves in 2018 and asked Twain to call his mom in honor of her birthday. Twain told Today.com in 2023 that the pair "stayed in touch ever since.”

Twain also shared in a 2023 interview with Apple Music’s Zane Lowe that she “almost missed” the Coachella performance because “I was out of the country for that first weekend.” 

“I said, 'Well, I'm not going to be there [the first weekend], but I'll come on the second weekend,' Twain explained. “He said, 'OK,' and then he comes back to me and says, 'I really want you to do the first weekend.' Like, 'Is there any way?' And I'm like, 'Ah.' You know?"

"I didn't realize the significance of that moment. I just saw it as a moment to get together with Harry, but I didn't see it as such a landmark moment . . . It was such a wonderful surprise, everyone's reaction."

Twain is set to perform at Glastonbury Festival along other artists like Dua Lipa , Coldplay , SZA and more.

Eiza González Defends Jennifer Lopez After Singer Cancels Tour

Actress eiza gonzález shared a message of support for jennifer lopez after she canceled a summer tour, saying the singer has received a "disturbing" level of "bullying" in recent months..

Eiza González has Jennifer Lopez 's back.

After J.Lo announced she was canceling her tour , her first in five years, the 3 Body Problem actress shared a message of support for the "Jenny From the Block" singer.

"I have to say the level of bullying that this woman has received in the last few months is so disturbing and heartbreaking," Gonzalez wrote on her Instagram Stories May 31, alongside a screenshot of a story announcing the tour cancellation. "How can you complain about someone being mean while enjoying mean about them. People are humans, make mistakes and some have personal things happening while also having to be constantly perfect in the public eye."

The 34-year-old continued, "The world is a pretty complicated place. The best thing we could be doing now is be kind. We have no clue what people are experiencing."

Lopez's tour was cancelled amid  breakup rumors about her and husband Ben Affleck   as well as ongoing criticism, especially on TikTok, of her lifestyle and recent career moves, including her performance in the new Netflix film  Atlas , which is currently the No. 1 movie on the platform's U.S. version but which has also received mostly negative reviews from movie critics.

"Why does everyone suddenly hate Jennifer Lopez?" Los Angeles Times   contributing columnist Alex Zaragoza  wrote in the newspaper's vertical De Los in April. "Arguably the biggest element of J.Lo's persona is being from the Bronx. She's 'Jenny from the block,' proclaimed in song, in interviews she's done over the last 30+ years of her career and the Super Bowl Halftime show. It's the latest reminder of her lore as a simple Bronx girl who made it big that has now called into question her authenticity."

Lopez, who has not responded to her online critics and lightly  shut down a question about the breakup rumors at an Atlas  press event , was originally set to begin a summer tour in late June that would have her performing in arenas in various cities in the United States and Canada through early August. In March, seven of the shows were canceled and on May 31, a message sent through her On The JLo fan newsletter announced the entire tour would no longer take place.

"Representatives for Live Nation announced today that the Jennifer Lopez US Summer 2024 Tour THIS IS ME...LIVE is canceled, citing ...'Jennifer is taking time off to be with her children, family and close friends,'" the statement said. "For those who purchased through Ticketmaster, tickets will automatically be refunded – there is nothing further fans need to do. For those who purchased via third-party resale sites such as SeatGeek, StubHub, VividSeats, etc. – please reach out to your point purchase for more details."

The newsletter than featured a "special message" from Lopez. "I am completely heartsick and devastated about letting you down," she said. "Please know that I wouldn't do this if I didn't feel that it was absolutely necessary. I promise I will make it up to you and we will all be together again. I love you all so much. Until next time..."

She’s plotting a farewell tour. She’s starring in a documentary about her life. And she could only ever be herself.

One Friday afternoon in May, Cyndi Lauper stepped out of her Upper West Side apartment building and into the streets of New York City. She wore glitter-encrusted glasses, sneakers with rainbow soles and a stack of beaded bracelets on each arm. A rice-paper parasol swung in her hand. As she walked, she examined the crowds and remarked when glints of interest caught her eye.

“Of course, up here it’s fashion hell,” she allowed of her tony neighborhood. And yet, every few blocks she rubbernecked at another woman’s look, her famous New Yawk accent lifting and tumbling in pleasure at what she saw:

“Look at these dames, how cute are they?”

“Did you love those pants? I kind of loved those pants.”

“Look at this lady,” she said, stepping off the curb and clocking a passerby. The woman moved nimbly, tomato-red streak in her silver hair, body draped in shades of fuchsia and cherry as she pushed the gleaming metal frame of a walker. “Fabulous,” Lauper exclaimed. “Come on!”

At 70, the pop icon and social justice activist isn’t just charging back into the streets. On Monday, Lauper announced her final tour, the Girls Just Wanna Have Fun Farewell Tour, which will have her headlining arenas across North America from late October to early December. And “Let the Canary Sing,” a documentary about her life and career that premiered at the Tribeca Festival last year, is streaming on Paramount+.

Lauper has not staged a major tour — “a proper tour, that’s mine” — in over a decade. But now her window of opportunity is closing, so she’s leaping through it. “I don’t think I can perform the way I want to in a couple of years,” she said. “I want to be strong.”

And until recently, when she finally agreed to sit for the director Alison Ellwood, she could not envision committing her life story to film. “I wasn’t going to do a documentary because I’m not dead,” she said. More to the point, she did not feel particularly misunderstood. From the moment she danced across the city in the 1983 video for “Girls Just Want to Have Fun,” she felt that she had articulated precisely what she wanted to say.

“Everything I wanted them to understand was in that video,” she said of her fans. She has a lot of people who get her: The clip has been viewed on YouTube more than one billion times. Forty years later, she holds it up as a thesis, the key to decoding her artistic perspective and understanding everything that followed. After all, “You never have to wonder where a New Yorker stands,” she said. “They’ll tell you, straight up.”

CYNDI LAUPER, BORN in Brooklyn, raised in Queens, bopped around the house to the Beatles’ songs, her older sister, Elen, singing McCartney’s parts and Lauper taking Lennon’s. It was her earliest lesson in harmony and song structure. But when she left home at 17, it was with a copy of Yoko Ono’s feminist conceptual art book “Grapefruit” in her hands.

Ono taught her that “you can create art in your head, and then you can view things differently,” Lauper told me. This attitude served her well as she tried (and often failed) to work as a painter, a shoe saleswoman, a racetrack hot walker, an IHOP waitress, a gal Friday at Simon & Schuster and the singer in a cover band.

Singing other people’s music in Long Island clubs and dive bars, Lauper struggled to find her place. She tried to channel Janis Joplin, but “I was stuck inside her body, and she didn’t like it, and I didn’t like it,” she said. She tried to sound like Gene Pitney, and “it came out sounding like Ethel Merman.” After a while, “You start to feel that you’re just not good enough.”

But really, she was just no good at being anyone other than Cyndi Lauper. When she started writing and arranging songs for herself, “I told the stories that I knew about the women that I knew,” she said. “About my mom, my aunt, my grandmother.” They guided her back to the rhythms of her own life, even if, in the beginning, few were interested in listening. “My first concert was to 14 people,” she said, “and I did the encore, OK?”

The documentary’s title is a line ripped from a real-life courtroom drama: Early on, Lauper’s career got entangled in the ambitions of an ex-manager, who sued her to retain control of her music. She sank into bankruptcy trying to escape him. When the judge sided with Lauper, he banged the gavel and said: “Let the canary sing.”

Once freed, Lauper connected with Robert Hazard, who had written a track called “Girls Just Want to Have Fun.” He’d arranged it as a rock song from a man’s perspective — the girls were the ones he imagined sleeping with — and Lauper had some edits. She recast it as a gleeful public announcement, calling out a sexist double standard (“Oh mama dear, we’re not the fortunate ones”) while claiming liberation from the workplace, the home and the patriarchy. And she rearranged the notes, pitching her voice so high that it could not be ignored. “I sang that high because I was trumpeting an idea,” she said.

And then there was the video. “That video was what you call ‘inclusive’ nowadays, and that was the most important thing,” Lauper said. In addition to the Italian American pro wrestler Lou Albano, Lauper featured her mother, her lawyer, her manager, a crop of record-company secretaries, and a racially diverse group of singers and dancers. “I was sick of the segregation” of the music industry, she said. “It’s people together that create a style.”

MTV was still in its infancy in 1983, and it was fortuitous that Lauper’s debut album, “She’s So Unusual,” came out just as the network was ascending. She saw her public image as a visual art form. Her makeup artist was a painter, and her stylist was a vintage buyer.

“People sometimes get the wrong idea that it was very thrown together,” Laura Wills, the founder of the vintage shop Screaming Mimi’s, said of the singer’s style. “People just didn’t look like that.” In the early ’80s, Lauper worked for Wills, often bartering her labor for clothes. When her career took off, Wills started styling her, and the pair often constructed Lauper’s outfits as if sliding chips across a poker table, as in, “I’ll see your polka-dot socks and striped capris, and I’ll raise you a plaid top,” Wills said. “I’ll see your polka-dot socks, striped capris and plaid top, and I’ll raise you a paisley hat.”

Lauper seemed to shoot to fame as a fully formed feminist icon. She refused to tell interviewers her age (“I’m not a car,” she said), and she insisted that they recognize the politics behind her aesthetic choices. “I wore the corset to undo the power of the binding of women,” she told the press. She graced the cover of Ms. Magazine and recorded the 1986 song “True Colors,” which resonated with her in the wake of a friend’s death from AIDS.

“I know that I probably lost business because I talked about AIDS a lot,” she said, but figured “I ought to stand up like any good Italian and stick up for my family, you know?” In 2008, she founded True Colors United to help combat homelessness among L.G.B.T.Q. youth. And in 2022, she created the Girls Just Want to Have Fundamental Rights fund to support abortion access and other reproductive justice movements.

In 1985, Lauper won the best new artist Grammy after the release of “She’s So Unusual.” The album — and songs like “Time After Time” and “All Through the Night” — broke records. But something odd was happening. She looked around and saw versions of herself everywhere. “When I first became famous, I felt like the whole world just kind of went” — here Lauper made a sharp slurping noise — “and sucked everything up. The jewelry, the color, the corsets on the outside, the whole thing. And then used it. Spit it out. Next!”

Lauper was accused of being a manufactured package. “No, it was me. That’s how I dressed. That’s how I looked. That was my community,” she said. “I have a brain.”

When Lauper got a call that a movie studio was adapting her big hit into a movie, she balked at its fluffy premise. “I guess it was about a couple of girls … trying to have fun,” she said. (Sarah Jessica Parker and Helen Hunt starred.) Lauper refused permission to use her song, so it featured Hazard’s version with other vocalists instead. “For me, it sucked,” she said. “You took my style. And it had nothing to do with me at all.”

In the ’80s, Lauper was compared so closely to other female musicians that it was implied there was not space for all of them. She was pitted against other women — mainly Madonna, who released her debut album the same year. On chat shows and in schoolyards (and even on the charity single “We Are the World” ), celebrities and fans were asked to choose one. “It was like apples and oranges,” Lauper told me. Or as she put it in Newsweek in 1985: “She’s just doing her thing. My thing happens to be different.” It was a shame, Lauper said: “I would have liked to have a friend.”

Though she fought her battles mainly alone, Lauper has inspired generations of women. Among her acolytes are Nicki Minaj, who in April brought her onstage in Brooklyn to duet on the song that samples her, “Pink Friday Girls.” When an interviewer asked the 26-year-old singer-songwriter Chappell Roan, “How does it feel to be called the Gen-Z Cyndi Lauper?” she replied, “I think Cyndi Lauper is the Gen-Z Cyndi Lauper.”

Lauper made 11 more albums after her debut — among them a blues record, a country record and a dance record. In the early 2000s, she walked over to Broadway, starring in “The Threepenny Opera” and writing the music and lyrics to the musical “Kinky Boots” after Harvey Fierstein, who wrote the book, tapped her for the gig. “There’s a small group of people I consider my children; she’s one of my daughters,” the actor and writer, who turns 72 this week, said. Fierstein told me that he had suspected Lauper’s talents were underused in rock, and he wanted to see what it was like for her to write a song that she would never sing herself.

“My favorite was a recording she made on her phone, in the beauty parlor, with her head in the dryer,” he said. (Lauper was often multitasking.) Her autoharp competed with the salon noise. “It’s really hard to sell a $10 million production on a recording of an autoharp song with a dryer background,” he said. “But that’s what we did.” Lauper won the Tony for best score, the first woman to win alone.

In an industry that requires the rapacious pursuit of the new and the cynical extraction of identity, Lauper was never willing to abandon herself. She had forged the revolutionary style, sang the totemic song. She inspired millions, billions, of fans to be themselves. Why should she have to change who she was?

AS LAUPER AND I traversed the Upper West Side, we ducked into an exhibition about the abstract artist Sonia Delaunay, passed the original Screaming Mimi’s location (now a dry cleaners), and wound back to her apartment, where she invited me up.

Past the doorman, past a cheetah-print doormat and a cheetah-print curtain, two little pugs named Lulu and Ping awaited Lauper’s return. She disappeared to arrange a plate of ginger cookies, the same kind Jackson Browne always sent her on Christmas, while her husband, the actor David Thornton, told me about their meet-cute on the set of the 1991 film “Off and Running.” She played a fake mermaid, he played a murderer. Off the set, he was struck instantly by her winning sense of humor.

“She’s the Rodney Dangerfield of rock ’n’ roll,” he said. As in, she is so funny that she does not always receive the respect she deserves. “I don’t think anybody has any idea how hard she works,” he said.

To prepare for the tour, she blasts the stereo in her apartment and dances and sings, vexing the pugs. She works with a vocal coach four days a week. And she trains like it’s a sport. Her weekly exercise routine includes physical therapy, weights, stretching, physical therapy, weights, yoga, more weights, yoga, aerobics, physical therapy, weights again. She’s been chomping on enormous salads that make her feel like a horse.

“But when you’re a singer, you have to be an athlete,” she said. “You can’t [expletive] around. When you’re 20, yeah. But when you get older? No.”

As the tour approaches, she’s been daydreaming about “all the crazy stuff I tried that didn’t work” in the long arc of her career. The butterfly-winged black dress that she was meant to reveal as she stepped out of a cocoon. The bit where she was supposed to change behind a backlit screen like an old cartoon character. A kind of mechanical skirt that resembled a globe, slowly spinning her around as she sang.

She’s not exactly sure what she’ll pull off this time. Whatever changes, one thing remains the same: “Who the hell I am is who the hell I am.”

Jennifer Lopez cancels her troubled summer tour

Jennifer Lopez’s This Is Me … Live tour was canceled amid reports of poor ticket sales and rumors about her marriage to Ben Affleck.

Jennifer Lopez’s North American summer tour, This Is Me … Live, has been canceled amid reports of the tour’s underwhelming ticket sales and constant tabloid rumors about the superstar’s marriage to Ben Affleck.

“Jennifer is taking time off to be with her children, family and close friends,” the event-promoting giant Live Nation said in a statement Friday, informing Ticketmaster customers that their refunds would be issued automatically.

The 54-year-old performer said she was “completely heartsick and devastated” about the news in a message to fans shared on her website. “Please know that I wouldn’t do this if I didn’t feel that it was absolutely necessary.”

The Style section

Lopez didn’t elaborate on her reasons, but a representative said the decision was not made due to ticket sales.

The nearly two-month tour was set to kick off in Orlando on June 26, with shows scheduled across the United States and Canada. But it has been marred by reports of poor sales since its announcement early this year.

The tour, which was going to be Lopez’s first in five years, was meant to support her ninth album, “This Is Me … Now,” which came out in February as her first solo album in nearly a decade. It didn’t chart well, debuting at No. 38 on the Billboard 200 — a career low for the entertainer. The 13-track album, which the singer has said was inspired by her rekindled relationship with Affleck, was also accompanied by a star-studded, quasi-biographical fictionalized film , “This Is Me … Now: A Love Story,” and a behind-the-scenes documentary, “The Greatest Love Story Never Told.”

In March, the last seven tour dates , in Cleveland; Nashville; Raleigh, N.C.; Atlanta; Tampa; New Orleans; and Houston, were canceled. Then, in April, the tour name was changed from This Is Me … Now to This Is Me … Live: The Greatest Hits, which suggested that the tour’s focus would be more career-spanning. Screenshots of ticket-booking websites for J-Lo’s tour dates in Denver, Tulsa and Pittsburgh published in a Variety article showed swaths of sections with available tickets.

Similar screenshots for other artists’ shows have also circulated on social media . Last month, the Black Keys seemed to be in a similar predicament to Lopez. The rock duo said in a statement that they were canceling North American tour dates and planned to reschedule the performances in downsized venues to offer an “exciting, intimate experience for both fans and the band.”

Other musicians have also had to make changes to their touring schedules. The Jonas Brothers announced in April that they were postponing the European leg of their tour due to scheduling conflicts. Pink couldn’t perform a few shows last year due to a respiratory infection , and Justin Timberlake canceled a show earlier this year after coming down with the flu.

Live Nation has come under scrutiny from the federal government, which last month filed an antitrust lawsuit against the company and its subsidiary Ticketmaster, claiming that they operate as an effective monopoly over the live music industry.

Meanwhile, Lopez has been silent about a flurry of unconfirmed reports claiming that she and Affleck are having relationship problems. The couple, nicknamed “Bennifer” when their relationship became a cultural obsession in the early 2000s, recently rekindled their romance and married in 2022 . For the past few weeks, tabloids have been full of headlines about “marriage problems.”

When Lopez was asked to address the rumors at a press junket last week for her latest film, “Atlas,” she responded, “You know better than that.”
