Lionel Richie has said he is bummed after being forced to cancel his sold-out show at Madison Square Garden one hour before the show started. The star revealed that his plane was unable to land in New York due to poor weather, and as such he was unable to make it to the show. He added that he will be scheduling the show to Monday, with tickets still being valid. We hope most of the crowd were able to make the second date!

And speaking on cancellations, Sir David Jason has apologised to fans after being forced to drop out of a convention due to his health. David was due to appear at the Only Fools and Horses Convention because he is due to have replacement surgery. He joked about keeping exactly what kind of surgery he was having private – and promised that his appearance would be rescheduled for January 2024. We’re wishing him a very speedy recovery.

Hayden Christensen has returned to the Star Wars universe once again for the upcoming Disney+ series, Ahsoka! The story follows his one-time padawan Ahsoka’s adventures in the galaxy far, far away, and the later trailer revealed a voiceover from Hayden as Anakin Skywalker, where he gives his student advice on how to be a Jedi Warrior. Although it is yet to be confirmed whether Hayden will actually make an appearance in the new series, this marks his second return since appearing in the show Obi-Wan Kenobi. The new show will be out on 23 August, and we can’t wait!

Dwayne ‘the Rock’ Johnson has shared his heartbreak at the wildfires in Maui at the moment, and shared a beautiful post where he said that he is heartbroken, adding that “our faith and mana is strong”. He added that resilience resolve is our DNA and that our ancestors are in our blood. Meanwhile, fellow Hawaii-born star Jason Momoa has urged holidaymakers not to go to the island. He asked that tourists don’t convince themselves that their presence is needed when the island is suffering.
