Celine Dion cancels Vegas shows due to ear issues

Unlike her heart, three weeks of Celine Dion's Las Vegas shows won't go on.
The singer is postponing her March and April concert dates due to a middle ear condition known as Patulous Eustachian tube, "which causes hearing irregularities, and makes it extremely difficult to sing," according to an announcement about the canceled shows.
She is set to undergo a "minimally invasive surgical procedure to correct the problem," the announcement added.
    Dion's shows from March 27 to April 18 have been canceled. She is set to return to the stage at The Coloseeum at Caesars Palace on May 22.
    "My luck hasn't been very good lately... I've been so looking forward to doing my shows again and this happens," Dion said in a statement. "I just can't believe it! I apologize to everyone who planned to travel to Las Vegas to see my show. I know how disappointing this is, and I'm so sorry."
    Dion has been dealing with her ear condition for the past 12-18 months, the statement said. She had been treating it with ear drop medications but those "have no longer been working to treat the condition."
    Ticket holders for the canceled shows will receive refunds

    Chris Evans is probably done playing Captain America after the fourth 'Avengers' movie

    Chris Evans seems to be getting ready to hang up his Captain America shield. The actor, who has played the iconic role since 2011, expressed his intention to step away from the role after the fourth "Avengers" film in an interview with the New York Times . "You want to get off the train before they push you off," he told the publication. Evans will next appear in "Avengers: Infinity War," due in theaters next month. A sequel to that film, which will be the fourth "Avengers" movie, already has a May 2019 release date. Evans has shot the sequel but is set to do reshoots in fall, which could be his last time donning the iconic suit, according to the Times. A representative for Evans did not immediately return CNN's request for comment. In addition to the "Avengers" films, Evans has starred in three Captain America standalone films. The last -- "Captain America: Civil War" -- was released in 2016.

    John Cena explains why he's moving past his fear of fatherhood, reconsidering having kids with fiancée Nikki Bella

    John Cena is singing a different tune about the prospect of procreation -- a lullaby, if you will! In the past, the wrestler-actor, 40, and his fiancée, NIkki Bella, have made no secret of his lack of interest in becoming a dad. "John doesn't want kids, so we're not going to have kids," Nikki, 34, told TMZ in April 2017. But he's now slowly coming around to the idea, he told Wonderwall.com while promoting his new comedy, "Blockers," in Beverly Hills on March 21. "I'm actually coming more to grips with maybe giving [fatherhood] a try," he tells us, explaining that the shift is due to his growing understanding that it's okay that he might not turn out to be the perfect dad. "It's the realization and the honesty with myself to be like, hey, this is you as a personality -- you're a tough-to-change personality. You may end up doing it wrong," he says. The WWE star admits that when it comes to the prospect of ...

    Elon Musk deletes Facebook of SpaceX, Tesla

    The verified Facebook pages for SpaceX and Tesla have been eliminated after Elon Musk, the chief executive of both companies, was dared by a Twitter user to delete them.
