Concerts and Tours

Celine Dion's singing voice was lifted by the power of love she felt from her fans in Paris ... because she put on a little show for her supporters in the middle of the street.

The singer-songwriter performed outside her hotel in France's capital ... stunning in a tight black dress with a long furry hem that dipped down to the sidewalk.

Celine gestured to her supporters and pointed out to the crowd as she stood in front of the audience and swayed back and forth.

Chris Brown claims he is not able to take time off from his tour with Usher to deal with the ongoing legal matters with his ex-housekeeper ... TMZ has learned.

According to court docs, obtained by TMZ, Chris said he can’t be forced to show up for an examination at the Van Nuys courthouse, where his ex-housekeeper Maria Avila wants to review his finances and bank statements to see how he will pay the judgment he owes her.

In his new filing, Chris said he’s a little busy with his nationwide tour … and said there are even talks to extend the tour with additional dates.

Ariana Grande is ditching her signature heels for the final stretch of her tour ... after suffering a painful foot injury.

Ari told fans Monday she'll be in "cozy footwear" for her London show -- and possibly Tuesday's finale -- because she's recovering from a deep cut underneath her foot.

She says it's not a sprain or muscular injury, but putting weight on the foot has been tough ... so the heels are staying backstage.

Kacey Musgraves had a fiery moment onstage in Boston ... and the country star's reaction was almost as entertaining as the unexpected blaze.

Musgraves was performing at TD Garden Friday night when sparks erupted above the stage following her performance of "Golden Hour."

Video from the concert shows the Grammy winner finishing the song as a shower of sparks went off overhead. What appeared to be a small fire then developed in the rafters, prompting Musgraves to stop the show and look toward the ceiling.

Harry Styles did some "Late Night Talking" at his Madison Square Garden tour stop ... about none other than his ex Taylor Swift's wedding.

Saturday was Night Three of Harry's cool 30 show run at MSG, but the touring tycoon was so humble on stage he had to shout out the other iconic events at the garden like the Knicks taking the 2026 NBA championship ring ... and his most famous ex-GF getting an 8 to 10-carat antique wedding ring from her new hubby Travis Kelce.

You can hear the crowd go absolutely wild at even the not-so-subtle reference to TS ... because as Swifties and non-Swifties alike know, the pair briefly dated in 2012 with many believing her 2014 hit "Style" was about their relationship.

Kanye West and Bianca Censori made a smooth getaway from the New Orleans airport early Friday morning ... but Ye's former chief of staff Milo Yiannopoulos wasn't so lucky.

Later Friday, TMZ broke the news Milo had been detained over his immigration status.

Kanye West hit the stage at the Superdome in New Orleans for a Friday performance amid his top executive's ICE arrest and pending deportation -- but Ye never addressed the drama once during his entire 2.5 hour show.

The rapper walked onto a large globe-shaped stage Friday night before a packed crowd after his exec Milo Yiannopoulos was apprehended Thursday by Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents at an airport in Lousiana.

As we reported ... Milo entered the United States legally in 2019, but he remained here beyond his authorized stay so an immigration judge issued a final removal order on July 22, 2026.

Tim McGraw hit the stage in Cincinnati, Ohio, this week -- and we do mean hit the stage!!!

Check out the video, people ... the country music star is belting out one of his famous tunes, "I Like It, I Love It," at Riverbend Music Center on Thursday night, when his cowboy boot got stuck in a crevice and he fell on his ass to the floor.

But Tim didn't let it bother him at all ... He cracked a big smile and jumped back onto his spurs before his guitarist gave him a little pat on the back. Tim didn't miss a beat either, picking up where he left off with the song.

Gladys Knight's fans are deeply concerned she's being forced to perform shows after she looked totally out of it at multiple concerts, and now people working on her tour are calling it absolutely "tragic" ... TMZ has learned.

The Motown legend has been touring solo, and sometimes with fellow icon Smokey Robinson, for several months, but after the last few shows Gladys has looked confused at times, staring off blankly and leaving much of the vocals to her backup singers. Her July 25 show at the Hollywood Bowl featured one of the more concerning incidents.

Sources with direct knowledge of the tour tell TMZ ... people spoke to Gladys' team before that show and said it's "not suitable" for her to be on stage.

Once the show started, it's obvious why they were worried ... while performing her classic "Midnight Train to Georgia," Gladys turned her back to the crowd and started walking off the stage. When a backup singer reached for her arm, Gladys shook off the attempt to keep her on stage.

J. Cole has canceled his Sacramento concert after a member of his touring crew was killed in a trucking accident Thursday morning.

In a statement, Cole's team says, "Following the tragic passing of a member of the touring crew in a trucking accident this morning," his scheduled performance at Golden 1 Center on August 27 has been called off.

The team adds, "Our thoughts are with the crew member’s family and loved ones during this incredibly difficult time."

Chris Brown was shut down in his attempt to get some extra time before turning over info his ex-housekeeper needs to collect on the $13 million judgment she won against him ... TMZ has learned.

According to court docs obtained by TMZ, a L.A. judge denied Chris' request for an extra month to turn over a list of his sources of income to Maria Avila, who was awarded $13 million over an alleged 2020 dog attack at his home.

The judge previously ordered Chris to produce the information about all of his income ... including money coming in from his current tour with Usher.

Harry Styles celebrated the life of Dolly Parton in a major way during his NYC concert Wednesday night, telling the crowd he loved the country music sensation and dedicating one song to her.

The British singer-songwriter hit the stage at Madison Square Garden and, at one point during his sold-out show, told the fans that he wanted to say a proper "thank you" to all of the musicians who inspired him over the years, including Dolly. As the fans screamed and cheered, Harry said, "Dolly, we love you, thank you so much."

Moments later, Dolly's famous 1974 song, "I Will Always Love You," played throughout the arena with Harry asking the audience to dance to the beautiful ballad. Harry's fiancée, Zoë Kravitz, was also in the crowd to show her support for Dolly.

Taylor Swift has finally been outshined ... and of course, she did it to herself.

TS gave a great Grammy Museum performance on Tuesday night ... but her massive wedding ring from Travis Kelce stole the show.

See for yourself, because all 7 minutes and 50 seconds of her show have finally been released for the masses.

The male driver killed in a chain of accidents involving the rock band Buckcherry was so mangled that South Carolina authorities have yet to ID him.

Police said the victim had stepped out of his vehicle after getting into a one-car accident.

Cops also said there were 2 more accidents around the same time in the general vicinity -- one of which was a 5-vehicle pile-up involving Buckcherry's tour bus. 

Rock band Buckcherry's tour bus was caught up in a chaotic chain of three separate accidents on a South Carolina highway, which ended fatal, TMZ has learned.

South Carolina Highway Patrol spokesperson tells TMZ the series of crashes unfolded one after another. According to cops, the first accident was a single-car crash involving a male driver. Investigators are still trying to determine what caused him to crash.

The situation turned deadly moments later when the man got out of his vehicle and was struck by another motorist. The man was killed in the collision.

Bret says he thought he could power through his recent health issues ... but admits he didn't fully account for the Atlanta heat, a coast-to-coast flight and new medication adjustments.
