Stevie Nicks Cancels Performance and Celebration of First CD in a Decade

[equeen102289]

I'm hanging out with Dani in the hotel room. We're both so bummed that this happened but we're going to try to make the best of this trip.

This could have been the most amazing show. . . but I just hope Stevie gets better now and that people still go out and buy In Your Dreams. She deserves a good debut. Especially when her PR people are working her ass off.

I called Liz Rosenberg's office earlier. Whoever I talked to (perhaps Liz herself?) felt so sorry for us. When I told her I was flying from Ohio she was like, "Oh honey I'm so sorry." She said Stevie got sick late last week and that she tried really hard to get better but her doctor is not allowing her to fly here.

Uhm - This person is Madonna's Publicist.
In my opinion, the person you talked to was probably
her personal assistant's personal assistant's secretary.

Stevie's on the front page of yahoo in the 'top searches' area!


Wooohoooo!

The person I talked to really wasn't the focal point of my post anyway. After the day I've had, you'd think you could be more considerate than just nitpicking about who I did and did not speak with.

Hi Dani and Amber! So sorry about the cancellation, was looking forward to meeting both of you. I hope Stevie reads this thread and sends you 2 some kind of consolation prizes for being Super Fans!

Hear hear! That really was quite mean and uncalled for.

I'm so sad, I do hope Stevie is feeling better...I can't help wondering if it has anything to do with Osama and possible flashbacks of 9/11 when she was in NYC...
That tour we had tickets for the Vegas show...that too was canceled. Do you think Stevie is trying to tell me something?

stevie is really sad

Her press agent made her work too hard. She did 46 interviews in two days & got sick with pneumonia.

Stevie’s bummed out she got sick. She knows her fans were so excited about Webster Hall.

Seems to have come on awfully suddenly after the Bin Laden announcement. I'm wondering about that. She was in NYC on 9/11 and freaked out and almost canceled the TISL tour. Now I'm thinking, given her tendency toward self-involvement, she's probably afraid to come to New York and her publicist came up with the pneumonia excuse and allowed herself to be blamed for working Stevie too hard. I wouldn't be surprised if Stevie thinks she's going to be involved in some terrorist attack again. I'm trying not to be cynical, but it's hard not to, given some of her past behavior on tour.

If she is sick, then I have a message for her: QUIT SMOKING! That's why you're sick, Stevie, not because Liz Rosenberg worked you too hard. I stood next to you for a little while at the charity event in 2009 and you chewed gum like a maniac and reeked of cigarettes.

Thanks for your cynicism. NOT!

As I said earlier in this thread, Stevie definitely rescheduled at least one interview late last week, I think it was Friday. It was tweeted by the person who'd been told it had been postponed. So I think she is ill now, and was becoming ill as of then.

I don't see Bin Laden as a factor in this at all.

If she still smokes, then of course she shouldn't. But right now, I don't feel like blaming her. I feel like wanting her to get better.

What charity event are you refering to?

"made her work too hard". Stevie still has some growing up to do, nobody can make her do anything. That said I know there had to be enormous pressure on her to do all the interviews. Still, knowing she has a tendency to get ill, she should know better by now. I am not saying it is her fault she is ill, I don't think that. But it's not her press agent's fault either. I am praying for her to get well soon.

I've decided not to come out for the one day after all. I just can't rally and am taking a mental health day instead and just chilling out. I'm sad I won't get to meet you and others, Danielle. You really are in one of the most awesome places.

Note to self, don't travel for Stevie unless you have a damn good Plan B set up!

One last thing, her father smoked into his old age AND he was involved in the Arizona Heart Institute. Addiction is a serious familial illness and without taking treatment seriously it is nearly impossible to beat. And I think Eric Roberts (one of last season's Celebrity Rehab patients) would attest to the fact that pot is not exactly a "soft" drug. I get the difference between it and heroin/opiates but it robs people of their motivation. Without it we may not have had to wait 10 years for this release.

You don't know she actually still smokes.
