Kelly Clarkson was scheduled to kick off her Las Vegas residency at The Colosseum at Caesars Palace on July 4. In recent days, she's been sharing behind-the-scenes photos from her rehearsal. But, shortly before showtime on Friday, she took to Instagram to let her fans know that she was forced to postpone.
Kelly shared a message on social media explaining that her Studio Sessions performances for July 4 and 5 would be rescheduled. She wrote, "We have been working 24/7 to make Studio Sessions the most intimate and extraordinary experience with and for my incredible fans. I am beyond grateful that you always show up for me and I am devastated to have to postpone tonight and tomorrow's opening at Caesars."
The American Idol winner went on to share: "The prep and rehearsals have taken a toll on my voice. I want the shows to be perfect for y'all and I 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 show is truly incredible."
