Lady Gaga Cancels The Rest Of Her European Tour Amid Health Battle

Posted on Mon Sep 18th, 2017 9:30am PDT       By X17 Staff

I have always been honest about my physical and mental health struggles. Searching for years to get to the bottom of them. It is complicated and difficult to explain, and we are trying to figure it out. As I get stronger and when I feel ready, I will tell my story in more depth, and plan to take this on strongly so I can not only raise awareness, but expand research for others who suffer as I do, so I can help make a difference. I use the word "suffer" not for pity, or attention, and have been disappointed to see people online suggest that I'm being dramatic, making this up, or playing the victim to get out of touring. If you knew me, you would know this couldn't be further from the truth. I'm a fighter. I use the word suffer not only because trauma and chronic pain have changed my life, but because they are keeping me from living a normal life. They are also keeping me from what I love the most in the world: performing for my fans. I am looking forward to touring again soon, but I have to be with my doctors right now so I can be strong and perform for you all for the next 60 years or more. I love you so much.

She's really struggling.

Lady Gaga announced she's postponing the European leg of her Joanne world tour as she battles debilitating physical pain and illness.

"I have always been honest about my physical and mental health struggles. It is complicated and difficult to explain, and we are trying to figure it out. As I get stronger and when I feel ready, I will tell my story in more depth, and plan to take this on strongly so I can not only raise awareness, but expand research for others who suffer as I do, so I can help make a difference," she wrote on Instagram.

"I use the word ‘suffer’ not for pity, or attention, and have been disappointed to see people online suggest that I’m being dramatic, making this up, or playing the victim to get out of touring. If you knew me, you would know this couldn’t be further from the truth. I’m a fighter. I use the word suffer not only because trauma and chronic pain have changed my life, but because they are keeping me from living a normal life," she continued.

"They are also keeping me from what I love the most in the world: performing for my fans. I am looking forward to touring again soon, but I have to be with my doctors right now so I can be strong and perform for you all for the next 60 years or more. I love you so much,” she concluded.

She also shared a press release from Live Nation announcing her break. She was scheduled to kick off her concerts on Sept. 21 in Barcelona, Spain and conclude on Oct. 28 in Koln, Germany.

"Lady Gaga is suffering from severe physical pain that has impacted her ability to perform. She remains under the care of expert medical professionals who recommended the postponement earlier today. Lady Gaga is devastated that she has to wait to perform for her European fans. She plans to spend the next seven weeks proactively working with her doctors to heal from this and past traumas that still affect her daily life, and result in severe physical pain in her body. She wants to give her fans the best version of the show she built for them when the tour resumes," the statement read.

It sounds like she's really going through it! We wish her a speedy recovery!

 

Kanye Assumes Daddy Duty With Son Saint Amid Rumors Of Marriage Trouble With Kim

Posted on Mon Sep 18th, 2017 8:50am PDT       By X17 Staff


He's looking a little stressed!

Kanye West brought son Saint along as he hit the studio in Calabasas yesterday, but Kim and Nori were nowhere to be seen. Although they recently celebrated their anniversary together, the couple have basically been living separate lives, and it has many wondering if they're really ready for baby #3 when their surrogate gives birth this January.

"Their marriage is still shaky as hell, so the notion they’re ready for another baby— maybe even more than one — is so irresponsible and downright crazy. Kim has meltdowns every day taking care of their kids, who aren’t the types of kids who’ll accept being dumped with a nanny," a source dished to Radar.

"The big problem is that she and Kanye don’t communicate about parenting, it just happens organically and that means Kim gets dumped with most of the day-to-day responsibility. He’s still vulnerable and stressed-out with work, so she carries the burden,” the source added.

Besides their relationship troubles, Yeezy is also worried about those secret recordings at the center of his $10 million lawsuit with his Saint Pablo insurers, which allegedly document his drug use and downward spiral.

We just hope 'Ye is OK!

 

Nicole Kidman Kisses Co-Star Alexander Skarsgard On The Lips In Front Of Husband Keith Urban At The Emmys

Posted on Mon Sep 18th, 2017 8:05am PDT       By X17 Staff


We guess he's not the jealous type!

Nicole Kidman had everyone doing a double take last night, when she planted a smooch on Big Little Lies co-star Alexander Skarsgard as he took the stage to accept the Best Supporting Actor in a Limited Series or Movie award. Making things even weirder? The fact her husband Keith Urban was literally sitting right there! We wonder if she ran this move by him before she did it? Doubtful!

The Internet immediately began churning out memes and losing their collective cool, but the Aussie starlet seemed oblivious to the controversy it may cause.

This wasn't Nic's only noteworthy moment of the evening, though! She also made headlines for failing to acknowledge her two kids with ex Tom Cruise during her acceptance speech for Outstanding Lead Actress, only mentioning biological children Faith and Sunday. She also took the opportunity to shed light on the topic of domestic violence as she discussed her role in the hit Netflix series.

"Sometimes when you’re acting, you get a chance to bring a bigger message. We shone a light on domestic abuse. It is a complicated, insidious disease, and it exists far more than we allow ourselves to know. It is filled with shame and secrecy, and by you acknowledging me with this award, it shines a light on it even more. So thank you, thank you, thank you," she told the crowd.

She knows how to keep a captive audience!

 

Women Reign As Handmaids Tale, Veep, And Big Little Lies Take Top Prizes At Emmys

Posted on Sun Sep 17th, 2017 9:46pm PDT       By X17 Staff

Television Academy/Twitter

At tonight's 69th Annual Primetime Emmy Awards, women stole the show!

It was ladies' night as Veep took the top prize for comedy, The Handmaid's Tale won Outstanding Drama Series and in a record-breaking SEVEN other categories for Hulu and Big Little Lies won Best Limited Series and its stars Nicole Kidman and Laura Dern took home awards for their acting.

In contrast to Hulu's surprise sweep of the awards this year, Netflix -- nominated with a whopping 91 noms, still hasn't won an acting prize or a series award. The biggest disappointment for Flix was that its hit Stranger Things, nominated in seven different categories, won nothing.

Meanwhile Veep's Julia Louis-Dreyfus picked up her sixth acting Emmy for the show, which is in its sixth and second-to-last year. And that makes her the reigning Emmys queen with the most-ever wins in all categories, having racked up nine trophies.

Host Stephen Colbert did an okay job and generally speaking, the Emmys were more interesting this year than the usual snoozefest it tends to be. Still, if you recorded the show but prefer to cut to the chase ... click through to see the full list of winners!

Is Khloe Kardashian Gaining Weight Or Could She Be Pregnant With Tristan Thompson's Baby?!

Posted on Sat Sep 16th, 2017 6:29pm PDT       By X17 Staff


Whoa! What happened to Khloe Kardashian's famous curves?! We can't tell if she's just got them covered up in her comfy sweats or if she's added some weight to her 24-inch waist-trained waist.

Of course sometimes a girl will let herself go a little once she gets comfortable with her man -- she'll start wearing sweats and fur slides when she leaves the house; she'll leave the makeup at home and she'll skip the blow-out. And don't go hating us in the comments for "shaming" Khloe -- you know we LOVE Khloe and we think she looks amazing, but no girl can tell us we're being sexist or politically incorrect by saying that oftentimes women take it down a couple notches once they've got their man locked down ...

Speaking of locked down ... the other explanation for Khlo looking a little on the larger side could be ... that perhaps ... she's pregnant!!!

No, she's just gained a little weight.
Who knows!

EXCLUSIVE PHOTOS & VIDEO - Father-Of-Three Scott Disick Goes On A Day Date With 19-Year-Old Sofia Richie

Posted on Sat Sep 16th, 2017 5:34pm PDT       By X17 Staff


Looks like Scott is robbing the cradle!

The 39-year-old Disick took teenage Sofia Richie on a day-date in his over-the-top Mercedes G-Wagon on Friday and we see these two have plenty in common despite the 20-year age difference! Seeing as how the Lord is basically like a teenage boy, his in-your-face cars, his expensive street style (similar to Sofia's taste for Supreme x LV) and his interest in just driving around all day spending money and eating expensive sushi seems to be the PERFECT match for rich kid Richie.

The two first hung out in St. Tropez this summer with Sofia's pal Chloe Bartoli who's just one of many side pieces for Scott. And now it seems Sofia's reached the status of a SSP (Scott side piece) -- how cute! She's got her BFF's sloppy seconds ...
