Kiss have canceled Thursday night's concert after singer Paul Stanley tested positive for Covid-19.
Kevin Mazur/GettyImagesKiss have canceled a concert scheduled for Thursday night in Burgettstown, Pennsylvania, after singer Paul Stanley tested positive for Covid-19.
“Tonight’s #KISS show at The Pavilion at Star Lake in Burgettstown, PA is unfortunately postponed due to Paul Stanley testing positive for COVID. More information about show dates will be made available ASAP,” the band wrote on Instagram, pointing out that the band and crew are all vaccinated.
“Everyone on the entire tour, both band and crew, are fully vaccinated,” the group’s statement continued. “The band and their crew have operated in a bubble independently to safeguard everyone as much as possible at each show and in between shows. The tour also has a COVID safety protocol officer on staff full-time that is ensuring everyone is closely following all CDC guidelines.”
Stanley himself took to Twitter to dispel rumors that he was in the hospital after suffering a heart attack. “PEOPLE!!! I am fine! I am not in ICU! My heart allows me to do 26 miles a day on my bike!” he tweeted. “I don’t know where this came from but it’s absolute nonsense.”
Kiss are just four shows into their End of the Road Tour, which resumed last week in Bangor, Maine. The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame members have concerts scheduled this weekend for Raleigh, North Carolina, and Atlanta — there is no word on the status of those shows.
Stanley’s bandmate Gene Simmons encouraged fans to get vaccinated in an interview with Rolling Stone last week. “I would highly recommend for everybody to get two Pfizer or Moderna shots, please — for the rest of us. Even if you believe the Earth is flat, it’s not,” Simmons said, detailing Kiss’s Covid protocols for the tour. “The entire road crew must be vaccinated twice. Nobody gets backstage or onstage without wearing masks, and everybody stays at a safe distance and you’ve got to wash your hands and do everything else the CDC says. Don’t listen to politicians. They’re not qualified. Listen to scientists.”
Kiss will return to Las Vegas in December for a new residency at Planet Hollywood on the Strip.
Kylie Kelce has responded to speculation that she may be expecting another child.
The 34-year-old, who is married to NFL player Jason Kelce, addressed the rumours after followers shared comments beneath photos from her recent trip to Paris.
Speaking on an episode of Not Gonna Lie, she said, "You know what's f***ed up? Commenting on women's bodies. That's it, that's the whole thought. But specifically commenting on the possibility of a pregnancy. I don't know how many times we have to go over this."
Kelce explained that several remarks appeared under her Paris pictures and decided to read some of them aloud. "There were a few of these comments left on the photos from my Paris trip, so I guess people need a reminder." She continued, "'Is it the dress? Or is that a little baby bump?' Oh. Nope, don't worry it gets worse. The next comment said, 'I see a baby bump.' That was confident. ... The next one says, 'She's pregnant????'"
The mother of four quickly dismissed the claims. "I have so many kids that over the last week, I have had three different people forget that I had four kids and thought I had three," she shared. "I have so many kids that one's getting forgotten along the way. ... Stop trying to get me to have more. Stop it."
She made it clear that conversations about expanding her family are "between me, my husband and my motherf***ing uterus." Kelce also spoke openly about the lasting changes to her figure, saying, "It's not necessarily going to go back to the way it was. Even more so, I have organs. And they go in there. ... Am I 100 per cent pre-baby body? No, because that's never happening. And that's OK, because I have made four human beings."
Kylie and Jason Kelce share four daughters: Wyatt, 6, Ellie, 5, Bennett, 3, and Finn, 16 months.
