Rod Stewart’s Heartbreaking Health Update Leaves Fans in Tears
Rod Stewart has cancelled shows due to health issues related to the flu, prompting fans to send their love and support. He expressed apologies on Instagram and emphasized his intention to continue performing after recovering. A future tour may include smaller venues for a more personal experience.
Rod Stewart, the iconic singer known for hits like “Maggie May,” is currently in a bit of a health pickle—or rather, a health flu, if you will—forcing him to take some downtime. The singer, who recently cancelled a Las Vegas show, is now on doctor’s orders to rest more. It’s tough news for fans, who are worried and desperately sending him supportive vibes.
On his Instagram, Rod shared an apologetic post: “I’m awfully sorry to have to cancel my show June 5th at The Colosseum at Caesars Palace. My doctor ordered a bit more rest while I recover from the flu. Thanks for your love and understanding – Rod,” along with a heart emoji. Talk about a sad serenade!
Fans quickly flocked to the comments section, sending their best wishes. Lizzie Cundy chimed in, saying, “Wishing you well.” Another supportive soul reminded Rod to take care while a third fan shared their hope of seeing him perform, saying, “I hope to see you in Latin America. It was my father’s dream.” Honestly, it’s enough to warm even the coldest heart!
More well wishes poured in, with one fan simply stating, “Please feel better soon, we love you!” and another one praying for his recovery. The outpouring of love just shows how much Stewart means to his fans. It’s like a group hug—very musical!
Originally, Rod had to reschedule a gig on June 2nd to June 10th and expressed his apologies, saying, “I am sorry to inform you that I’m not feeling well and my show tonight at The Colosseum at Caesars Palace is being rescheduled to June 10. Your tickets will be valid for the new date.” Seems like a classic case of rock star versus cold, and let’s just say we’re rooting for the rock star!
As for his planned shows, Sir Rod hasn’t confirmed when or if his latest show will be rescheduled. The man has had quite the career recently, being on his “One Last Time” tour and even sporting a sign around his neck that read: “Sorry. Cannot talk. Having vocal rest.” Now, that’s dedication!
Rod had previously announced that this tour would mark the end of his large-scale world tours, but doesn’t seem interested in retiring just yet. He passionately declared, “I love what I do, and I do what I love. I’m fit, have a full head of hair and can run 100 metres in 18 seconds at the jolly old age of 79!”
He also hinted at a future tour focused on his “Great American Songbook”—smaller venues for a more intimate experience. But let’s be honest, will he or won’t he? Can we keep our fingers crossed on that one?
In summary, Rod Stewart is taking a necessary break to battle the flu, leading to cancelled gigs and a flurry of fan support online. He assures fans he loves performing and intends to keep going despite this setback. Fans remain hopeful for his quick recovery and anticipate future shows, even as he hints at a possible shift towards more intimate performances later on. In the meantime, let’s just root for Sir Rod to get better soon!
