Rod Stewart Angers Fans After World Cup Appearance

Rock legend Rod Stewart shocked fans after canceling his show in San Diego just 40 minutes before his scheduled performance. Initially, organizers cited a sinus infection as the reason for the cancellation. However, Stewart later clarified that he was diagnosed with an acute upper respiratory infection that caused laryngitis.

The unexpected cancellation was followed by a video posted by Stewart on Saturday, where he was seen boarding a private jet with his adult sons to watch Scotland play Haiti in the World Cup. This move drew criticism from fans who pointed out that Stewart appeared energetic and vocally sound after saying he couldn't perform the night before due to laryngitis.

Things took a turn for the worse after photos and videos began circulating from the match that showed Stewart smiling in the stands with two alcoholic beverages in front of him. His representative attempted to explain the situation, stating that Stewart's laryngitis was caused by a delayed reaction to steroids.

The apology didn't go down well with fans, with many expressing frustration and questioning Stewart's priorities. One fan wrote, 'Why does he post this after disappointing 10-15K fans?' Another fan questioned Stewart's credibility, saying, 'Too ill to perform but okay to fly across the country for soccer?'

Rod Stewart is scheduled to perform at Red Rocks Amphitheater in Colorado on Monday, but fans wonder if he's truly recovered. Meanwhile, San Diego fans hope that the rescheduled show comes sooner rather than later.
