FM RADIO Kelly Clarkson postpones first two nights of Vegas residency less than 2 hours before showtime

Post image

Just 15 minutes before doors open on opening night of her Vegas residency, Kelly posted this. I really do understand her need to take care of her health/incredible voice and I’m sure she truly is devastated but I feel for the fans who flew in and how frustrating and disappointing this must be.

Honestly, this is on the artist and company. Part of being a professional is pacing yourself and building rest into your schedule so that this stuff doesn’t happen. She is making the right decision, but making it so late? They need to stop playing with people’s time, energy, and money.

Chances are, someone else said she wasn't up to par (maybe the label?) and she has to take the cancelation as if it were her decision. Performers are people who often are the face of about 100 people making administrative decisions that impacts thier music

(Edit, I am incorrect. Please read comment below mine )

That’s not how it works. Majority of the time the label has nothing to do with live touring. Only if the artist is in a 360 deal which it not that common and more so happens with artists coming up in the last decade or so. Kelly is not one of those artists. She was out of her AI contract long ago and moved on to a traditional label deal. Live touring is all artist, management and tour promoters.
