Kings of Leon front man Caleb Followill has announced the band’s UK and European shows this summer are canceled after he shattered his heel in a "freak accident."
He said on May 28 that the injury required "significant emergency surgery" and would keep him from traveling and performing.
Followill’s situation is a reminder that even world-famous musicians aren’t immune to the physical toll of life on the road. Our favorite artists may seem larger than life, powering through tours packed with concerts and constant travel, but the demands can catch up with anyone. The Rolling Stones, Adele, and Shakira are just some of the stars who’ve also had to cancel shows due to illness.
