Gwen Stefani suffers a mysterious injury, cancels concert

Gwen Stefani apologized to her fans on social media Saturday after she revealed she suffered an injury and would be canceling her Aug. 17 show at Hard Rock Live in Atlantic City.

“As a result of a recent injury and in consultation with my doctors, I’ve been advised that I’m not able to perform on August 17 at Hard Rock Live at Etess Arena in Atlantic City,” she wrote in a message posted to her Instagram Stories.

“I’m so sorry,” she added before revealing that her team plans to reschedule the show.

She also said that Ticketmaster will send out emails to those affected once the new show is announced.

At this time, it’s unclear whether any future shows will be affected by Stefani’s mysterious injury.

The singer — who recently reunited with her No Doubt band for a nostalgic set at the Coachella Valley Music Festival in April — was scheduled to appear at two festivals in September, including the iHeart Radio Music Festival in Las Vegas on Sept. 20 and the South Star Music Festival on Sept. 28 in Huntsville, Ala, per People.

Aside from her own musical endeavors, it seems her sons Zuma, 15, and Kingston, 18 — both of whom she shares with ex-husband Gavin Rossdale — have inherited her musical talents.

Zuma recently made his country music debut at his stepdad Blake Shelton’s Ole Red bar in Oklahoma last month.

According to fan videos from the event, the 15-year-old performed his rendition of Zach Bryan’s “Oklahoma Smokeshow.”

Stefani’s eldest son — who celebrated his 18th birthday in May — performed at the bar in August 2023.

The “Sweet Escape” hitmaker is also mom to 10-year-old son Apollo, who she also shares with Rossdale.
