Rod Stewart Scraps Vegas Gig Due to Health Woes: "I'm Not Feeling Well"
Performer abruptly calls off imminent Vegas show. - Performer abruptly shelves Las Vegas show at the last minute
Turns out, "Rhythm of My Heart" crooner, knighted Rod Stewart (80), had to pull an about-face just hours before his gig in the Vegas desert. His Instagram Stories delivered the bad news to fans: his Colosseum at Caesars Palace show was postponed to June 10th, with original tickets remaining valid.
Stewart's health recently isn't peachy keen, with a slew of setbacks hindering his Vegas appearances. Reports surfaced earlier this month of his need to muzzle his vocal chords. In Italy, he was spotted with a voice-rest sign around his neck after a show. Previously in August 2024, multiple concerts were postponed due to a bout of COVID-19, and even his 200th Vegas show was scrapped, attributed to a streptococcal pharyngitis (a dreaded sore throat).
Stewart Doubles Down on 2025 Germany Shows
Rumors had been swirling about Steven railing on retirement, but the man's got a heart as rugged as they come. In the wake of calling it quits on extensive world tours, he's not about to abandon the stage for good — mind you, we're talking a man who's given us timeless hits like "Maggie May." With hit shows and festivals lined up through June, he'll roll on into Germany this November, kicking off performances consecutively in Hamburg, Leipzig, Mannheim, Cologne, and Munich.
