• Paige Undergoes Emergency Surgery
Former WWE Divas Champion Paige underwent an emergency surgery to remove an ovarian cyst.
Ronnie Radke, Paige’s boyfriend, cancelled his show for this surgery and tweeted the following:
“Sacramento, not only did my drummer fall completely ILL to food poisoning, Paige had to have an emergency surgery to remove an ovarian cyst.
So even if my drummer wasn’t sick I still would’ve canceled. So if you’re mad.. don’t buy another ticket to my show again.”

A fan didn’t like the way Radke addressed this situation and tweeted the following:
“As a fan of FIR I don’t like the way you talk down to people and have this ‘I’m better than everyone’ tone. I hope they both recover fast and get why you cancelled but you could word things a little softer. No need to be a d*ck. Btw it’s the band’s show and not ‘your’ drummer.”
This led to Paige replying the following:
“C’mon. Be better than this. He was attacked by so many selfish people that don’t have empathy also when it comes to his drummer. It’s not easy to replace him last minute. There’s a lot behind a live show. Celebs are human too. Give him a break.”
