Clarkson wrote that she intends to take the stage later this week on Friday, July 11.
Fans on X responded to her post. One man wrote: “Setbacks happen. No worries. Lessons will be learned, and anticipation will continue to build making the first show even more amazing.” Another wrote: “So ur telling us that u don’t lip sync your show? I hope the fans understand that’s why other artists don’t cancel their shows.”
Other fans were not happy about the timing of the announcement. One wrote: “Everyone saying they understand obviously didn’t fly out, book hotel rooms and waiting in line for her to literally cancel at the last minute.” Others were a little heated: “People spending $thousands to come see you and hours before the show you say ‘eff off!’ Vegas residencies are not a bunch of locals. These are people that scheduled their limited vacation and and $ for you specifically. Get on the damn stage!”
Whew… hopefully the rest of the residency goes off without a hitch!
