Earlier this month, Arctic Monkeys’ gig at the Hydro in Glasgow was cancelled due to a laryngitis diagnosis. However, the gig was later rescheduled for Thursday, November 21, which makes up for the lost date. The band’s date at the Hydro in Birmingham was also cancelled, citing Turner’s laryngitis. The band’s laryngitis diagnosis has been a topic of speculation since Alex Turner was last seen celebrating the Mercury Prize at the Groucho Club in London.

Alex Turner’s laryngitis
It’s been confirmed that Arctic Monkeys have cancelled their show in Glasgow and Birmingham, UK, as frontman Alex Turner has been diagnosed with laryngitis. The band will play Glasgow’s Hydro on November 21 instead. Similarly, their gig in Birmingham has been postponed to Wednesday. The band is trying to make up for the cancelled dates, but it’s unclear when they will be back.
The band’s tour dates were originally scheduled for November 20 and 21. The concerts have been postponed to later this month. Although the concert dates in Glasgow and Birmingham have been cancelled, all tickets remain valid for the November 20 show. The band’s next concert is expected to take place in 2022. During the off-season, Arctic Monkeys are focusing on finishing a new album.
Kanye West’s interview on Jimmy Kimmel Live
The controversies surrounding Kanye West’s recent interview on Jimmy Kimmel Live continue to pile up. President Trump tweeted his appreciation for West’s remarks, and President Obama cut the African-American unemployment rate in half. But Kanye West’s interview on Jimmy Kimmel Live shifted to his thoughts on Donald Trump, who he supports. He had previously posted a picture of himself wearing a Trump campaign hat, which upset many Trump supporters. Chance the Rapper distanced himself from Kanye West after the incident.
The rapper reacted to Kimmel’s skit with an emotional outburst, saying that he thought the zoo treatment of celebrities was a “disgrace.” In response, Jimmy said he considered West a “good guy” and defended his conduct. While Kimmel defended Kanye, he still made jokes about the paparazzi bothering him. The interview was so controversial that Gawker aired a mocking article about the interview.
Nirvana’s Nevermind
The new Arctic Monkeys album may be the best in the band’s history. The album was recorded at the same Sound City studio as Nirvana’s Nevermind, which fills the studio with a haunting aura. Nirvana’s record is so influential that many artists have sought to record there, including Kings of the Stone Age, Weezer, and Arctic Monkeys.
A lawsuit has been filed by the parents of a baby pictured in a Nirvana album. The baby, Spencer Elden, is suing Nirvana for “child pornography” and claims that the band owes him over $100,000. He is also suing the band for “wrongful publicity” in relation to the use of his image. Although the lawsuit is still under review, the case may have been settled in favor of the band.
Matt Helders’ divorce from Breana McDow Helders
Arctic Monkeys drummer Matt Helders has filed for divorce from his wife of two years. The couple married in Italy in 2016 and are the parents of 3-year-old daughter Amelia Darling. The couple has been together since 2011, when they started dating and became engaged. After two years of dating, they got married in 2016. The couple has one child together, Amelia. The divorce has caused a lot of confusion among fans and the media, so this news will likely bring some relief to everyone involved.
Breana and Matthew married in Italy on June 11, 2016. The couple had been dating for three years before tying the knot. The ceremony included a song from “Once Upon a Dream” by the Beatles. During the ceremony, Breana asked Matt to write a letter to her husband, and he did. The couple’s wedding was beautiful. They had a wedding photographer, and Breana had an artist paint their wedding dress. However, during the last 10 minutes of the wedding, Amelia’s shoe fell off.
Alex Turner’s college life
After graduating from university, Alex Turner spent two years living in Los Angeles. In between semesters, she split her time between Los Angeles and Brooklyn, and took piano lessons until the age of eight. She was also exposed to a wide variety of music at home. “I grew up listening to everything,” she says. Her parents had always supported her dreams, and she never looked back. Despite her busy schedule, Alex Turner managed to find the time to attend college.
While attending college, Alex Turner was working as a bartender, although he intended to attend university in Manchester. During his school days, he met Matt Helders, who later became his bandmate.
