Just an hour before his scheduled performance on stage, a huge US pop star had to cancel his UK show at the last minute. On Saturday night, Benson Boone was scheduled to perform at Birmingham Utilita Arena.
However, he announced a statement to his fans just one hour before the performance. Although the 23-year-old beauty girl has been on tour in the UK, she said: “Birmingham, I’m so sorry but I won’t be able to perform tonight.
With the current state of my throat, I’ve tried everything to give my voice back, but I’m unable to give you the show I’d like to be able to give you. Working with my team, I’m trying to find a new date as soon as possible.
He continued, “I’m so sorry, this is genuinely the crappiest feeling.” I’m going to do everything in my power to compensate you. As soon as I can, I’ll let you know.
“I appreciate everything you do. I adore you all so much. B”. Additionally, the Utilita Arena stated in a statement that the event had been canceled.
They continued, “We understand how disappointing this is and sincerely apologize for the extremely brief notice and inconvenience caused,” and continued, “working through all possible options to reschedule.”

Ex-girlfriend Aaron Chalmers has been accused of lying to his ex-wife Talia Oatway because she claims that their disabled son Oakley doesn’t see him in the hospital.

Ex-Talia Chalmers of Aaron Chalmers criticizes the Geordie Shore star in a furious rant about raising their disabled son alone.
Aaron Chalmers’ ex Talia Oatway has furiously slammed the Geordie Shore star and claimed she has to solo parent their disabled son Oakley, despite the fact that he is still involved with their other children.
Talia and Aaron share three children together – Romeo, Maddox and Oakley – while she also has a daughter, Siennah, from a prior relationship. Oakley has Apert Syndrome, a genetic disorder that causes fusion of the bones in the hands and feet, as well as the skull. Talia regularly posts updates about her youngest son’s health.
She claimed in a recent update that she must raise Oakley alone and that Aaron, her ex, doesn’t accompany them to hospital visits.

In an Instagram story, she shared how angry she was: “I’m absolutely fuming, like fuming. The reason I come on here and explain what’s happened to Oakley is because I’m still living in fear. I’m not over the trauma.”
She then explained why she is upset, saying, “I take care of two of my children alone. It is amazing that someone who doesn’t go to any appointments or stays in a hospital can just go online and start talking about his medical care because he is there every night, as he has been for more than a year.
Talia continued, suggesting that Aaron didn’t have a right to do that because he wasn’t involved with their son’s care. She continued to say that she wasn’t happy with how Aaron posts about Oakley. She continued, “I come on here and demonstrate the reality of what it’s like to have two kids and live alone.”
I have four of them and am the only single parent of two; I’m suffering from hospital appointments, nurses, operations, MDTs, and I’m doing it alone. That one person thinks it’s acceptable to post information about my son’s health that I haven’t yet digested online.
“Fair enough if I do it because I’m the one raising him and have had enough,” I say. I’ve been doing it for a while, pretending everything is alright and doing it with someone else, but I’m not.
Talia had to take Oakley to the hospital to see some neurosurgeons shortly after receiving this news. She claimed that she had to have CT scans of her toddler’s brain to “rule out a lot of stuff” and that she had “no answers” when she left.
“Oakley had a gemranosec earlier this morning to have a CT scans on his brain, basically to rule out a lot of the illness. So he had that before the neurosurgeons had to examine the scans, which was obviously necessary. They did tell me some things about Oakley’s brain, which obviously has petrified me, even though I still have no answers.
“But I’m holding off until the surgeons at Newcastle and Liverpool speak to me so that I can understand the circumstances Oakley is in.”
In February of this year, Oakley was born. At the time, Talia and Aaron had been together for five years, but they broke up just months after Oakley was born.
The Mirror has reached out to Aaron’s representatives for a comment.
Hybrid players are a bit like concept cars – glitzy, intriguing ideas but, when push comes to shove, coaches have invariably chosen something more reliable and conventional to actually go from A to B.
Eddie Jones talked up the possibility during his time as England coach. He thought wing Jack Nowell could work as a flanker. He posited that Tom Curry and Sam Underhill might head in the opposite direction and play in the backline.
But Jones never followed through on the idea. The division between backs and forwards remained. Orthodoxies survived.
But Jones’ successor Steve Borthwick might be the one to finally take the plunge.
Earlier this week, he flagged Ben Earl and Guy Pepper as midfield options and floated the possibility of deploying fellow back row Henry Pollock as a wing.
“Maybe, maybe not it will happen this autumn,” he said of a switch to starting centre for Earl.
“It’s certainly a factor I’m considering. He’s spent so much time training with the backs and you can see his skillset and his pace.”
If it is going to happen during this run of Tests, then next week against Fiji – rather than against New Zealand or Argentina – would be the obvious opportunity.
The win over Australia will further tempt Borthwick to chance his arm.
In a little over 50 minutes on the pitch, Earl was England’s second-highest metre-maker, racking up 77m and streaking in from distance for the game’s opening try.
Pollock, who replaced Earl off the bench, made 52m and similarly revelled in broken field, swerving outside full-back Andrew Kellaway for England’s second score.
The Northampton tyro’s chip, chase and score against Sale last season showed a remarkable skillset.
Both he and Earl have a back catalogue of carries – full of pace, as well as power – to be tested full-time behind the scrum.
Their jackalling threat would only be accentuated in the wide, open spaces.
Given the defensive differences and positioning complexities, it would still be a grand tactical gamble, however. As Borthwick’s soft launch has shown.
The England coach is experimenting with Tommy Freeman, more usually a wing, as a starting outside centre. The idea debuted in the Six Nations thrashing of Wales.

A prime chance to release Immanuel Feyi-Waboso outside him went begging as Freeman’s wing instinct kicked in – he held tight and took contact.
But Freeman largely subdued Joseph-Aukuso Suaalii opposite him and is now two from two at 13.
England’s search for versatility and flexibility is necessary to keep pace with the trends of the modern game.
France threw flanker Oscar Jegou into the centres in Dublin earlier this year and came away with a fine victory. World champions South Africa have made Kwagga Smith and Andre Esterhuizen masters of several trades and unlocked blockbuster power off the bench.
England’s attempt to copy that Springbok tactic worked, as they accelerated away from an admittedly underpowered Australia in the final half hour.
“I did think that the bench made a difference from England,” said Australia coach Joe Schmidt.
“They really did step up the level of intensity and the physical combat that they brought.”
Similarly England won the aerial battles that mattered, with Tom Roebuck creating England’s first tries with smart tap-backs.
With chasers now guaranteed a route to that contest under last year’s law tweak, it is another crucial area to get right.
Two years out from a World Cup, Borthwick and his evolving coaching team is attempting to pull all those pieces together to create a winning picture.
Some unusual fits might yet be needed to complete it.

Strictly Come Dancing star Lewis Cope has revealed what his girlfriend thinks of his partnership with Katya Jones on the show.
The 30-year-old actor, who began his career as a child actor appearing in a West End production of Billy Elliot the Musical and played Nicky Miligan on Emmerdale, has said pilates instructor Rachel Maya Lopez is his “biggest supporter” and ensures he is always looked after. Lewis described his girlfriend as “fantastic and amazing” while adding that they enjoyed a holiday together before he joined Strictly.
He added that Rachel hasn’t had to kiss other people on stage because of the nature of his job as an actor, which hasn’t been a problem. There is no conflict between his girlfriend and his Strictly partner, 36-year-old Katya, he added, adding that they have met in any way.

The actor said: “She’s used to kiss me kissing boys, but it hasn’t been a problem. Over the years, I’ve had to kiss a lot of people on stage or onscreen, as an actor. Rachel and Katya have already met. We have never engaged in conversation.
He continued, “Rachel has been my biggest supporter, she sends me to rehearsals with a packed lunch, and she really looks after me.” She booked us a studio just before the performance, which she managed to get just for me. She is amazing and fantastic.
The couple started dating about eight years ago, but they don’t make regular red carpet appearances. Instead, they spend their free time exploring and traveling. On the night of the Strictly launch show, Rachel posted a video to her Instagram account revealing Lewis’s friends and family, as well as some of his 14 siblings, were joined by his dance partner Katya for the watch party.
Our Sweet Lew, we are right behind you, she wrote in the video. You are a truly wonderful person. After posting some of the highest scores in Weeks 1 and 2 and topping the leaderboard in Week 3, Lewis and Katya, who won the Glitterball in 2017, are already being predicted to win the series.
Lewis said his professional dance partner is “amazing with the choreography, but she is also such a bright energy” while performing his Couple’s Choice to Creep by Radiohead this evening. She always finds a way to make something work, he said to the publication, “Nothing never ever becomes a problem, even if I am struggling with something.” She is patient, has a small ego, and is able to work with me and make things work.

After appearing in Billy Elliot The Musical two decades ago, Lewis has however received criticism for having a dance background. Lewis explained why he believes the criticism is unfair and “insulting” to professionals, saying: “It’s strange to hear that I’m some sort of “professional dancer.” I’ve never danced professionally and it’s been a long time.
Steven Gerrard admitted to being “very close” to becoming manager of Rangers, but ultimately rejected the position because things weren’t “perfect.”
Following Russell Martin’s dismissal last month, the former Ibrox boss decided to step down and speak with the Scottish Premiership club.
The former England and Liverpool captain spent the 2018-2021 season as manager of Rangers, winning the Scottish title there before failing to succeed at Aston Villa and Al-Ettifaq.
Gerrard claimed that while his family is still based in Bahrain, Gerrard’s heart was “100% there,” the timing was inappropriate for a return to Ibrox.

There were a few things that I didn’t know about. And if I’m going to take a challenge that big and important, and I have that connection with Rangers, it must be flawless and completely prepared for me to do so.
Gerrard had been suggested that he might consider joining Rangers’ current structure, which would now include sporting director Kevin Thelwell and chief executive Patrick Stewart, where he might play as the head coach rather than the manager.
When asked about that, the 45-year-old said that while “the timing wasn’t right from a family standpoint,” she also acknowledged that you must do your due diligence in some situations.
I need to evaluate, “Is it right for me,” Gerrard said. Is the timing right, and how can I be the best version of myself in that position? Unfortunately, I didn’t feel right about the timing.
