Kelly Clarkson announced that she would be canceling the first two nights of her brand-new Las Vegas residency shortly before she was due to take the stage for the first time on Friday night. Clarkson wrote in an Instagram post, ”I am beyond devastated to have to postpone tonight and tomorrow’s opening at Caesars. The prep and rehearsals have taken a toll on my voice. I want the shows to be perfect for y’all and need to protect myself from doing serious damage so I am taking this weekend and next week to rest up so that we can deliver what you all deserve.” The singer was set to start her residency on Friday and continue through August, with additional dates in November. While fans were understanding, some, including those who had traveled from out-of-state or waited in line all day, expressed their disappointment in her comments, with one fan writing, “I really want you to be healthy, but cancelling this late has such a huge financial impact on your loyal fans.”
