Adam Lambert once again proved why he is one of the greatest vocalists of his generation with a breathtaking performance at the Queen Family Singalong. As one of the standout artists of the night, Lambert paid tribute to Queen in the most spectacular way, delivering a powerful and emotional rendition of “The Show Must Go On” that left the audience in awe.

The song, originally released in 1991 as part of Queen’s final album with Freddie Mercury, Innuendo, carries deep emotional weight. Written by Brian May, it was a reflection of Mercury’s battle with illness, symbolizing his unbreakable spirit and determination to perform despite his deteriorating health. The song’s soaring melody, dramatic instrumentation, and deeply moving lyrics have made it one of Queen’s most iconic and powerful anthems.

Adam Lambert, who has been performing with Queen + Adam Lambert since 2011, brought the song to life with his signature powerhouse vocals and commanding stage presence. His ability to capture both the intensity and vulnerability of the track showcased why he is the perfect modern-day frontman for the legendary band. With soaring high notes, emotional depth, and a stage presence that exuded confidence and passion, Lambert set the stage on fire and delivered a performance worthy of the Queen legacy.

Fans and viewers alike were left speechless by his incredible talent, and the performance quickly became one of the highlights of the Queen Family Singalong. With every note, Lambert honored Freddie Mercury’s legacy while making the song his own.

Congratulations are in order for Toby Keith‘s son, Stelen Covel, who’s expecting his first child with his wife, Haley.

Toby had three children with his beautiful wife of nearly 40 years, Tricia Covel. They shared two daughters, Shelley and Krystal, and a son, Stelen.

As the kids grew, got married, and started families of their own, Toby and Tricia thrived in their new roles as grandparents. Krystal has said it’s “hard to find a candid picture where he doesn’t have one of our babies in his arms.”

Sadly, Toby passed away on February 5, 2024, following a years-long battle with stomach cancer. He was 62 years old.

Since then, his kids have gone above and beyond to keep his legacy alive. They’ve attended multiple awards shows and events and frequently pay tribute to him online.

On the first anniversary of his death this year (2025), Stelen honored his father by sharing a candid video of him performing for their family. He captioned it, “A whole year without my hero. Here’s to one day having more of these nights. Love you dad.”

Stelen Covel And His Wife Haley Are Expecting Their First Child

Toby’s death also had a profound impact on his daughter-in-law, Haley Covel. Toby walked her down the aisle when she married Stelen in 2021.

Their wedding occurred not long after Toby received his cancer diagnosis. After learning he had cancer, Toby worried if he’d make it to walk Haley down the aisle. He told Audacy:

“And my son was getting married, and his wife didn’t have a father. And she asked my son, Stelen, if I’d walk her down the aisle. I said ‘sure.’ And now I’m a month away from that, and I’m thinking ‘I might not even make it that far.’ I didn’t know, you know? When you get diagnosed, you just freak.”

But Toby did make it, and it meant the world to Haley that he walked her down the aisle to marry his son. After he passed away, she said:

“I’ll never have the right words to say. Toby was larger than life at home and on stage. It’s a complete honor to be his daughter-in-law. He took me in as his own and I’ll forever be grateful for that. He touched the lives of so many and I’m blessed to be one of those.”

In the midst of their heartache, Stelen and Haley are celebrating some happy news. They’re expecting their first child!

The couple announced their pregnancy on Thursday (February 13). They shared a picture of themselves smiling while Haley held up a series of sonogram photos. Stelen was also wearing a t-shirt with Toby’s picture on the front.

“Baby Covel coming this summer,” they captioned their announcement, which you can see below.

Fans were quick to congratulate the couple on their growing family. We too, want to send them our congratulations!

In October 2024, Jelly Roll joined Kelly Clarkson for a special duet performance during the “Kellyoke” segment of her talk show, The Kelly Clarkson Show. Their “Jellyoke” duet highlighted one of Jelly Roll’s newest songs, “I Am Not Okay.”

“I Am Not Okay” is the first single Jelly Roll released from his latest album, Beautifully Broken. The impactful song focuses on the topic of mental health, with some of the lyrics being:

“I am not okay. I’m hanging on the rails. So if I say I’m fine, just know I learned to hide it well.”

“I Am Not Okay” eventually reached the #1 spot on the Billboard Country Airplay chart and peaked at the 14th spot on the all-genre Hot 100 chart. The track has since been nominated for a Grammy Award for Best Country Song.

Jelly Roll and Kelly Clarkson transformed “I Am Not Okay” into an inspirational duet for their “Jellyoke” performance. Jelly Roll led the song, while Kelly provided some stunning and powerful harmonies.

Jelly Roll and Kelly sounded so natural singing together that many fans begged them to release a studio version of their duet. Some of the comments on the official YouTube video (before it was deleted) were:

“I absolutely love how she totally could over power him if she wanted to but she played off of him so well and kept it his song and it came out so beautiful.”

“PLEEEEEAAASSEEEEE MAKE THIS AN ACTUAL DUET!! I NEED THIS IN MY PLAYLIST.”

“Drop a studio version!! This is amazing. Jellys [sic] look of awe when Kelly goes for it is adorable. My heart needed this.”

“Wow! After I stopped crying I realized that Kelly is the angel to this song. I thought the song was perfect before but Kelly added something soft and powerful at the same time.”

“Kelly’s harmony just elevated the song, Love her vocal style and range! Jelly and Kelly should do more songs together. Love them!”

The YouTube video had hundreds of comments and thousands of likes less than 24 hours after it was posted. Three months later, the video had over 1.1 million views, making it one of the most popular “Kellyoke” covers of 2024. While the video has since been deleted, the performance is still on TikTok.

“I would’ve never believed you if you would’ve told me that I’d write a song so impactful that incredible Kelly Clarkson would deem it worthy to cover,” he wrote on X (formerly Twitter).

Jelly Roll likely never imagined that he’d be singing another one of his tracks with Kelly one day!

Imagine witnessing a moment of pure musical brilliance unfold right before your eyes. The studio falls into a hushed stillness as Susan Boyle steps into the spotlight, the orchestra waiting, ready to bring something truly extraordinary to life.

Backed by a sweeping orchestra, her voice carried a raw emotion that resonated with every listener in the room.

Another also complimented, “With my mouth-gaping wide, I lay still and breathless as I listened very very intently how she sings with the very zealously playing orchestra men and women. Ah this is what you call BREATHLESS for Susan Boyle. And this is real music! True and real singer.”

The legendary rock band Queen, joined by powerhouse vocalist Adam Lambert, stunned fans in Sydney with an unforgettable performance of “Another One Bites the Dust” on August 27, 2014. As if the night couldn’t get any bigger, pop icon Lady Gaga made a surprise appearance, sending the crowd into a frenzy. Her dramatic entrance and undeniable stage presence added a whole new level of excitement to the show, making it a historic moment for rock and pop fans alike.

With Lambert taking the lead on vocals, his dynamic range and charismatic energy paid homage to the legacy of Freddie Mercury, while adding his own modern flair. Gaga, known for her theatrical performances and bold fashion choices, seamlessly blended with the rock legends, proving once again why she is one of the most versatile performers in the industry. Their electrifying chemistry on stage created a once-in-a-lifetime spectacle that had fans singing along to every word.

The performance was part of Queen + Adam Lambert’s Australian tour, which had already received rave reviews. However, the surprise collaboration with Gaga elevated the night to legendary status. Dressed in a striking black leather ensemble, she not only delivered powerful vocals but also matched the band’s high-energy performance, showcasing her rock-inspired side in a way that left the audience in awe.

Fans in Sydney witnessed a moment of music history as three of the most influential names in the industry joined forces for an unforgettable rendition of one of Queen’s greatest hits. The fusion of rock royalty, a modern vocal powerhouse, and a pop superstar created an electrifying experience that will be remembered for years to come.

It’s no secret that Adam Lambert is one of the greatest modern vocal talents, but this song really stretched his skills to the limit! Jimmy Fallon put Lambert up to covering “The Muffin Man” in the style of Cher, to which the pop star doubled over in mirth after hearing the request. Ever a trooper, Lambert got straight to the task, singing the nursery rhyme to the tune of Cher’s megahit “Believe.”

It won’t surprise readers to hear that Lambert knocked it out of the park vocally and comedically. His opening line had Fallon and his other guests doubling over, and the whole room was hyped for what Lambert was laying down. Lambert always nails anything he sings, but this time around, it was really great to see him flex his comedic chops. He definitely nailed it with this cheeky performance!

The look of joy on everyone’s faces during the performance, both onstage and in the crowd, really said it all. Lambert gave his Cher impression on Wheel of Musical Impressions on a Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon episode that was uploaded on YouTube on April 17, 2023. The clip proved to be quite popular with fans online, who tuned in 4.6 million times for the one-of-a-kind performance.

Fans were impressed by Lambert’s delivery and added comments such as “Adam Lambert still hands down one of the most phenomenal male singers of all time. There is nothing that he can’t sing” and “His laugh in the middle of singing just gets me every time. It shows how fun singing can be to him and I just love his passion.” Lambert must have enjoyed his appearance on Fallon, as he later mashed up “The Muffin Man” with his cover of “Believe” at his show at the Summertime Ball on June 11, 2023.

Cher dropped “Believe” on October 19, 1998, as the lead single from her 22nd studio album of the same name. The song was penned by a team of seven songwriters, with Cher herself contributing a significant amount of lyrics in the second verse. However, she was not listed on the songwriting credits, and in 2023 she said she regretted not requesting a credit. “Believe” went to number one in 23 countries and shifted more than 11 million units. Readers may know the tune as Cher’s signature song, and it is still the highest-selling single ever by a female solo artist.

An Adam Lambert and Queen concert is already a major event, but Sydney Queen fans got the shock of their lives when none other than Lady Gaga crashed the English rockers’ show to sing “Another One Bites the Dust”! Lambert opened up the 1980 number one hit with a fiery vocal, before Gaga appeared to sing the second verse with incredible energy and swag.

Gaga hit the stage in an outlandish teased black wig that added half a foot to her height, presumably in tribute to Cher’s iconic 1980s hairstyle. This seemed to make the audience not recognize Gaga at first, but when Lambert introduced her by name the crowd lost it. Lambert and Gaga then traded lines, and the energy they put out while they fed off each other’s vibe was really something. This performance has gone a bit under the radar on YouTube so far, but readers will find a whole lot to enjoy here.

Gaga made her surprise appearance at Queen’s show in Sydney, Australia, on August 27, 2014. Readers will definitely want to tune into the section just after the two-minute mark, when Lambert and Gaga make their way to the walkway at the front of the stage and trade lines while getting up close and personal with the audience.

Queen have created a number of incredible live features over the years, with not only their own songs but also a cover or two at times. One particularly memorable moment featured guitarist Brian May and drummer Roger Taylor sharing lead vocals with Bad Company singer Paul Rodgers on John Lennon’s “Imagine.” The vocal line in Queen really is amazing, with the band’s backing singers like May and Taylor having simply sublime voices as well.

Queen dropped “Another One Bites the Dust” on August 22, 1980, as the fourth single from their eighth studio album, The Game. The funk rock banger quickly became a worldwide hit and topped the Billboard Hot 100 for three weeks. The song is Queen’s highest-selling single, as it shifted seven million units, and ranked at number 34 on the Billboard All-time Top Songs list. Queen bassist John Deacon wrote “Another One Bites the Dust” in one of his most significant contributions to the Queen discography. The song is one of only three Queen songs to surpass two billion streams on Spotify, where it is placed third behind “Don’t Stop Me Now” and “Bohemian Rhapsody.”
