Concerts and Tours

Lil Wayne is going solo ... and not at his concerts, because he announced he and his alleged fiancée, 23-year-old Madi Cannon, are splitsville.

Check out the video ... Lil Wayne is airing out all the heat he's been facing in the recent days since the beginning of his "20 Years of Carter Classics" tour -- including his reason for snubbing Maine fans at the opening of his tour on June 30 ... and revealing his split from Madi.

Weezy says he was NOT engaged to Madi ... and, in fact, they were far from it ... saying he "had a beautiful thing going with an amazing person," but he didn't "want to be such a burden on such an amazing person."

Here's a crossover you probably weren't expecting ... Kanye West and Shane Gillis hanging backstage after the rapper's Texas concert.

The comedian gave fans a look behind the scenes by posting to Instagram a photo of himself with an arm around Ye after the his Alamodome show in San Antonio on Saturday night.

The meetup may seem like it came out of nowhere ... but the two have crossed paths before. Back in May, TMZ reported that Gillis was on the bill when Dave Chappelle took the stage at Comedy Store in Los Angeles ... where Chappelle surprised the crowd by bringing Kanye onstage for an unannounced appearance.

Harry Styles gave fans an unforgettable moment during the final night of his Wembley Stadium run ... taking time to publicly thank his former One Direction bandmates in a heartfelt speech that left the crowd roaring.

During his final run at Wembley Stadium for his "Together, Together" tour, Harry reflected on the journey that brought him from boy-band superstardom to selling out one of the world's most iconic venues ... saying "I wouldn't be on this stage if it wasn't for four friends of mine that were a massive part of this journey."

The singer continued to shout out and thank each of his former bandmates -- Niall Horan, Louis Tomlinson, Zayn Malik ... and his "dear friend Liam."

Lionel Richie has spoken out for the first time following the mid-show health scare that sent him to the hospital on June 24.

The "All Night Long" hitmaker took to Instagram to share performance photos from his Pittsburgh and Detroit concerts, telling fans he's "doing well" and thankful for all the love he's received.

And, he ended the post by confirming he is headed to Toronto for his next gig.

Chris Brown was leaving very little to the imagination during his live show in Minneapolis ... he called a girl on stage and started simulating very steamy sex with her ... and it's all on video.

CB was thrusting, humping and grinding on the fan while she was on all fours on a mattress on stage, for an arousing rousing rendition of "Take You Down."

She seemed to be enjoying herself, because she was backing it up and twerking on him ... and Chris couldn't help but cop a feel.

Lil Wayne went MIA for his concert in Maine, and now we may know why ... he decided he wanted to party instead of perform.

The rapper was seen present at Michael Rubin's annual Fourth of July White Party in the Hamptons Wednesday night ... alongside other A-listers like DJ Khaled, Alicia Keys, Jake Paul, Kevin Durant and many, many more.

It looks like Weezy didn't flake on Michael's party ... but, clearly, that wasn't the case the night before when he dipped out of his own concert in Maine without even touching the stage.

Lil Wayne was a no-show for his concert in Maine last night ... and fans are obviously pissed he pulled this stunt again.

Weezy was supposed to play the Bangor waterfront with special guest 2 Chainz ... and was scheduled to take the stage at 10:45 PM -- but minutes after the scheduled start time, the crowd was told he wasn't coming out, per a local report.

No explanation was offered ... and fans lit Weezy up on social media for being rude and disrespectful to his fans -- noting this isn't the first time he bailed on a show.

Look what she made him do! Taylor Swift's Madison Square Garden wedding is taking shape ... and one worker was bold enough to wear some vintage Taylor gear on the job.

Check out this forklift driver sporting a "Taylor Swift Carpenters" tee while operating a forklift at MSG ... the shirt appears to be same one given to crew on her 2011 "Speak Now" world tour.

The vintage tee is sparking all kinds of questions ... did Taylor hand him the shirt for this job, did her work on her tour, or is the guy just a full-blown Swiftie?

Lionel Richie is back where he belongs -- onstage -- making his first performance since the health scare that landed him in the hospital!

The music legend resumed his "Sing a Song All Night Long" tour with Earth, Wind & Fire Tuesday night in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania ... and looked right back in his groove.

It was a welcome return after Friday's show in Chicago and Saturday's concert in Columbus were postponed following the medical scare.

Noah Kahan's mystery concert pooper won't be answering to the law after all ... because cops tell TMZ they aren't investigating the crappy incident that left fans gagging.

Philadelphia Police tell TMZ ... no one ever filed a report over the viral bathroom blunder ... so there's no investigation underway despite the internet frenzy.

As we reported, the chaos unfolded during Noah's Friday show at Philadelphia's Citizens Bank Park, where a woman was accused of pooping in her seat before allegedly tracking the mess through the crowd. Noah even weighed in afterward on X ... begging fans not to crap their pants.

Justin Bieber fans believe he's gearing up to announce a new tour ... but TMZ has learned that's NOT happening.

Sources familiar with the situation tell TMZ ... the Biebs is not preparing for a tour centered around his latest album, "Swag," despite speculation of an impending announcement.

Beliebers were starting to believe the "Baby" singer was gearing up for a tour when Justin's website appeared to create a new tab for show dates ... but we're told it's all just smoke.

Adele was rolling in the deep of the Bad Bunny crowd ... and loving every second.

The singer was living it up Saturday night at Benito's sold-out show at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London alongside fiancé Rich Paul -- and videos show Adele putting her performing hiatus momentarily on pause and going nuts singing along to his music.

Watch the clip ... Adele is all smiles as she danced in an England soccer jersey ... singing along, throwing her hands in the air, and even swiping a fan's hat.

Harry Styles is doing just fine after briefly collapsing on stage due to a choking scare, not the extreme European heatwave, TMZ has learned.

Fans watching Harry at a sold-out show Friday night at Wembley Stadium were sent into a panic after the singer appeared to choke and collapse mid-performance, sparking immediate concern amid an ongoing heatwave across the region.

Sources close to the situation tell TMZ the scary moment had nothing to do with the weather. Instead, we're told it was a brief onstage mishap involving water during one of Styles’ signature crowd interactions.

Taylor Swift made a surprise appearance at Alan Jackson's farewell concert Saturday night ... but not everyone in the crowd appeared 'Enchanted' to meet her.

The pop superstar and bride-to-be wasn't there in person as she popped up in a pre-recorded video tribute honoring the country legend during his final touring performance, "Last Call: One More for the Road -- The Finale," at Nissan Stadium in Nashville.

As clips of Swift's virtual appearance spread across social media, some fans claimed they could hear boos roaring from sections of the packed stadium while her message played.

Rihanna made a rare appearance in Los Angeles Saturday night, stepping out with her son Riot Rose Mayers to support A$AP Rocky during his "Don’t Be Dumb" tour stop at Kia Forum.

The billionaire singer was spotted mothering in the crowd as Rocky hit the stage, with fans quickly realizing she wasn’t alone ... little Riot was right there beside her, taking in the show.

At one point during the performance, Rocky gave a special shoutout to his son from the stage, sending the crowd into a frenzy. Riot adorably waved back at his dad, sending the arena into a collective swoon.

Katy Perry is speaking out after her scheduled set at Werchter Boutique was abruptly canceled due to severe weather and crowd safety concerns ... with the singer saying she was already backstage getting ready when the news hit.

In a post shared to fans, Perry explained the last-minute nature of the decision, saying she was in the middle of hair and makeup when she was informed the show could not go on.

Perry took to Instagram and wrote "Sadly my set @WerchterBoutique tonight can’t happen due to a government mandated cancellation because of the incoming inclement weather and crowd safety concerns."
