      In a statement he released via social media, the music producer husband of Katharine McPhee apologizes for the inconvenience, but stresses on the health and safety of the communities.
      Mar 16, 2020
      AceShowbiz – David Foster and his wife Katharine McPhee are rescheduling all of the dates on their upcoming spring tour due to the ongoing coronavirus pandemic.
      The 70-year-old music producer and songwriter previously rescheduled his March concert dates due to a medical procedure and now that the World Health Organization (WHO) has declared coronavirus a pandemic, he has decided to postpone the rest of the tour as well.
      “We have all been closely following the recommendations around COVID-19 and today we collectively made the tough, but we think wise decision, to reschedule our spring tour,” he wrote on Instagram. “The health and safety of the communities involved is top priority and based on the information from the CDC and the local governments in our touring cities, we feel this is the best decision.”
      David continued: “I apologize for the inconvenience this may cause some of you and hope to make it up to you at the rescheduled dates, which will be announced soon. Tickets purchased for this tour will be honored at the new dates and inquiries regarding refunds can be directed to the box office where tickets were purchased.”
      “I think I can easily say that no one is more disappointed than myself and the great performers that were to join me on stage each night. We hope you all stay safe and healthy and that we see you in the near future,” the message concluded.

      The tour was set to resume in mid-April, and was supposed to run until mid-May. The cancellation follows similar measures from stars including Cher, Madonna, Mariah Carey, and Billie Eilish, whose performances have all been affected by the outbreak.

      Artist of the Week: Lady GaGa

      by

      With her flamboyant stage show and costumes, as well as her music that resonates with young and old alike, the superstar sold more than 27 million albums in just a few years into her career.
      Mar 16, 2020
      AceShowbiz – Lady GaGa is truly one of the best pop sensations in this decade. With her flamboyant stage show and costumes, as well as her music that resonates with young and old alike, the superstar sold more than 27 million albums in just a few years into her career and has a massive, devoted fans called Little Monsters.
      Making a name for herself since her debut album “The Flame” in 2007, GaGa recently made a comeback with a new single entitled “Stupid Love”. The new song additionally marked her return to her theatrical pop root after she switched style on her last album “Joanne”.
      Considering this, it’s only natural that people were very hyped over her new single. “Stupid Love” debuted at No. 5 on Billboard’s Hot 100, becoming her sixteenth single to make it to the top five of the weekly chart. It also marked her highest-debuting entry since “The Edge of Glory” launched at No. 3 almost nine years ago.
      Not only doing well on music charts, but “Stupid Love” also received praises from critics. For instance, Harper’s Bazaar described the song as “upbeat cut with big vocals and dance and electronic-inspired production,” seemingly “poised to be another radio hit from the singer.”
      Meanwhile, Spencer Kornhaber of The Atlantic called the single a “glorious comeback” and a “return to form not only for the singer, but also for her genre.” Heaping praises for GaGa, he continued, “Gaga’s voice is so big and personable that a sense of humanity remains intact.”
      “Stupid Love” is set to be included on GaGa’s upcoming album “Chromatica”. She previously said of the record, “We are definitely dancing… I put all my heart, all my pain, all my messages from the other realm that I hear of… what they tell me to tell the world and I put it into music that I believe to be so fun and you know, energetically really pure. I want people to dance and feel happy. I would like to put out music that a big chunk of the world will hear, and it will become a part of their daily lives and make them happy every single day.”
      “Chromatica” will hit the stores on April 10.

      J Balvin Proposes Release Delay for 'Colores' to Fans

      by

      WENN/Instar

      Set to launch his brand new album on March 20, the ‘Mi Gente’ singer asks his devotees if he should postpone its release as people around the world deal with the ongoing spread of coronavirus.
      Mar 16, 2020
      AceShowbiz – Colombian star J Balvin has proposed postponing the upcoming release of his new album in the wake of the coronavirus crisis.
      The “Mi Gente” singer is set to launch “Colores” next Friday (March 20), but he appears to be having second thoughts about sharing the project at a time when so many people are more concerned about the health and safety of themselves and their loved ones than the release of any new music.
      Turning to fans for their input on Thursday night, Balvin posted a question in Spanish on social media, which roughly translates to, “My people, should we stop the release of ‘Colores’ on March 20th or should we go out and give colour in this grey moment?”

      Many insisted he should stick to the release date, arguing that music brings joy and happiness during tough times – especially when people around the world are facing possible quarantine in a bid to halt the spread of the COVID-19 disease.
      Label bosses at Universal Music are still currently preparing to drop the new material next week.

      People Say 'No' to Yaya Mayweather's Music Career Plan

      by

      Twitter

      After watching the sneak-peek video of her unreleased song, one person urges Yaya’s famous father Floyd Mayweather, Jr. to take action, writing, ‘where is Floyd he need to step in at this point.’
      Mar 16, 2020
      AceShowbiz – It seems like people are not feeling Yaya Mayweather’s music. The daughter of Floyd Mayweather, Jr. recently took to her Instagram account to treat her followers to a sneak-peek at her song before asking for their opinion on the tune.
      The video saw the girlfriend of NBA YoungBoy (YoungBoy Never Broke Again) donning a gray sweatshirt which has camouflage pattern on the sleeves and the hoodie. She was featured lip syncing to her unreleased song.
      Seemingly planning to release the song if people love it, Yaya put a poll on the post. “Should I drop this song?” she asked, giving her online devotees a yes or no option. Majority of people, however, voted for no as it made up 53% of the voting result.

      Feeling unsurprised by the results, some Internet users alluded that her music wasn’t that good for her to start a career in the hip-hop industry. “She need to keep that sht to herself,” one suggested. Meanwhile, another person wrote that those who voted no was “Everyone who not tone deaf,” with someone else adding, “EVERYBODY SHOULDVE VOTED NO lol.”
      Some others were baffled by the fact that Yaya got any yes. “I’m mad at the 47% who said yes,” a user said. “& everybody that said yes just want her to embarrass herself,” one other echoed the sentiment.
      People also noted that Yaya seemed to be struggling mouthing the lyrics in the video. “How you don’t know yo own lyrics,” one person wondered. Another person, meanwhile, urged Floyd to take action, writing, “where is Floyd he need to step in at this point.” Someone also mocked Yaya’s song, joking that it was “worse” than the Coronavirus disease.
      Yaya has yet to comment on the clownery.

      ACM Awards 2020 Pushed Back to September Due to Coronavirus Pandemic

      by

      Despite their initial insistence the show would go on as planned, organizers are pulling the plug on the April ceremony after President Donald Trump declared the outbreak a national emergency.
      Mar 16, 2020
      AceShowbiz – The 2020 Academy of Country Music Awards have become the latest casualty of the global coronavirus crisis.
      Singer Keith Urban had been due to host the prizegiving at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas on 5 April, and just days ago, ACM officials insisted the show would go on, despite the postponement of various big-name tours and festivals like Coachella and Stagecoach in California.
      They insisted they were “closely monitoring the situation” for developments, and now, after U.S. President Donald Trump declared the COVID-19 outbreak a national emergency on Friday (March 13), organisers have decided to pull the plug on the event and push it back to September, although a specific date has yet to be decided.
      “The ACM Awards is a tentpole event for our Country Music industry, and the Academy of Country Music and dick clark productions went to great lengths to find a safe solution for the show to go on so that we can honor our artist community,” Damon Whiteside, CEO of the Academy of Country Music, shared in a statement.
      “This decision involved many partners, stakeholders and the industry who we have been in constant conversations with over the past several days as the situation has developed. We look forward to identifying a future date that we can celebrate with our Country community safely.”

      Maren Morris and Thomas Rhett were among the top nominees for the ACMs, with five nods each, while the bash was set to feature performances from Urban, Miranda Lambert, Lindsay Ell, Elle King and Ashley McBryde, among others.
      It’s the latest prizegiving to be affected by the coronavirus chaos – the Nickelodeon Kids’ Choice Awards and Canada’s Juno Awards were recently scrapped, while the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction ceremony was put on hold.

      Coronavirus Forces Kelly Clarkson to Postpone Las Vegas Residency

      by

      Instagram

      Not only her upcoming residency ‘Invincible’, but the ‘Because of You’ hitmaker has also made the decision to temporarily halt production of her self-titled talk show.
      Mar 15, 2020
      AceShowbiz – Kelly Clarkson is the latest star to be affected by the coronavirus pandemic, which has shut down production on her hit TV talk show and Las Vegas residency.
      The outbreak of Covid-19 has seen more than 145,000 cases of the illness registered, resulting in more than 5,400 deaths since it began in December (19).
      While the health scare has wreaked havoc across the entertainment industry, with numerous TV shows wither cancelled or going ahead without an audience, Kelly announced on Friday, March 13 she’s playing it safe when it comes to her “The Kelly Clarkson Show”.
      “As you may know, production on ‘The Kelly Clarkson Show’ was temporarily shut down late last night,” the 37-year-old said. “And out of concern and care for everyone’s safety, we have chosen to postpone the April 1st opening of my Las Vegas residency, ‘Invincible’, until July.”
      She added that “details regarding ticket replacement are forthcoming and I can’t wait to see you this summer. For now, please keep your loved ones close, safe and healthy.”
      The cancellation of the “Stronger (What Doesn’t Kill You)” star’s residency in Sin City comes after the Jonas Brothers, Lionel Richie, and Diana Ross have pulled out of their shows due to the pandemic.
      A similar decision is expected to be made about British pop star Robbie Williams’ “Live in Las Vegas” residency, housed at the Encore Theater at Wynn Las Vegas alongside Lionel and Diana’s shows, which is currently billed to resume on 24 March.
      Robbie’s recent show in Australia was also cancelled due to the outbreak, with high-profile stars including Cher, Madonna, Mariah Carey, and Billie Eilish also scrapping gigs as a precaution. Similarly, major festivals including Coachella and Stagecoach have been postponed until later this year.
