Gracie Abrams recently canceled her October 6 concert at New York City’s Radio City Music Hall due to a vocal injury, as per her doctor’s advice. The 25-year-old singer apologized to fans, expressing her deep disappointment, especially knowing many had lined up early or traveled long distances for the sold-out performance. She shared the news on Instagram, stating how devastated she was to cancel the show.

Abrams has been on her *The Secret of Us* tour, which began on September 5 in Portland, Oregon, and will end on October 10 in Portland, Maine. Though she’s scheduled to perform in Philadelphia on October 8, it’s unclear if this injury will affect that show.

Ticket holders for the canceled New York show were reassured that a new date would be announced soon, with all tickets still valid. Abrams also looks forward to rejoining Taylor Swift on the second North American leg of *The Eras Tour* later this year.

Popular Nigerian skit maker Oluwadolarz has opened up about the challenges he faces due to misconceptions surrounding his stage name.

During a chat on the Open Up podcast, he revealed that some brands hesitate to work with him simply because of his name, assuming it has negative connotations.

Sharing the backstory, he explained that the name “Dolarz” came about in 2010 when he was still a stand-up comedian. He had cracked a joke about the fluctuating value of the dollar, and the nickname stuck.

“People forgot my real name because that joke became my identity. By 2014, I started adding ‘Oluwa is involved’ whenever people called me Dolarz. That’s how ‘Oluwadolarz’ was formed,” he said.

Unfortunately, the name has led to a lot of false assumptions. “Many think I’m a Yahoo boy or involved in shady activities. Brands don’t want to associate with me because of that misconception,” he added.
