Caleb Followill of Kings of Leon is gonna be a dad!

His wife, Lily Aldridge, is preggers with their first child.

This is the second Victoria's Secret model this week to announce her pregnancy! Alessandra Ambrosia revealed yesterday she has another bun in the oven.

Lily is said to be about three months along, which means it'll be a summer baby! Bet Caleb is gonna want to hold back on any tour plans in 2012.

What a great way to ring in the new year!

Congrats, you two.

Susan Boyle values her worth! And she thinks she can party hard with Kings of Leon and Lady GaGa!

The UK talent is serious in her desire to collaborate with the music heavyweights, and even though we're not sure if the world is ready for that, we'd LOVE to see her sing with the Sex on Fire band!!

Or even better — she and GaGa should Marry the Night together in the video! LOL!!

Okay, okay, enough with the silly, back to the serious (because, really, she is).

SuBo dreams big for her next album, saying:

How do we know? Their mommy told us!

Yes, the boys of Kings of Leon are on a bit of "break," shall we say, disappointing thousands of their fans by canceling their tour and splitting up to take care of some personal matters.

Still, even though the boys are on a bit of a hiatus, according to Caleb Followill's mother, we should't get too used to them being absent. Momma Betty Ann insists:

Yeah, this is going to be the start of something bad. Right, Ryan Murphy?

It doesn't seem like there are too many people in this business you have a soft spot for the Kings of Leon. There fans are loyal, for sure, but every time we turn around, we feel like there is someone with some major beef with them. This morning, it's Hanson.

In a new interview, the brothers laid in thick on the band for canceling their tour to deal with some issues, including Caleb Followill's "exhaustion." Issac, the eldest Hanson, explained:

Unfortunately, we saw this one coming.

To recap, Kings of Leon frontman Caleb Followill got very sick while performing during a Friday night show in Dallas, blamed it on the heat, and then couldn't perform the rest of the show.

Following the show, Caleb's brother Jared tweeted an apology to fans, and made it clear that there were BIGGER issues going on then just heat exhaustion.

Then yesterday we learned that all the U.S. shows in Kings of Leon's tour are being cancelled, and in a statement released by their rep, the reason given was that Caleb is "suffering from vocal issues and exhaustion."

Now, a source close to the band is saying that Caleb's big issue is actually related to alcohol:

As we told you lthis weekend, there was some drama going on with Kings of Leon and their Texan concerts.

After complaining of heat exhaustion, frontman Caleb Followill walked off stage and never came back. His brother, Jared Followill, apologized to the fans, admitting it wasn't just the heat getting to the band. In some interesting tweets, he aired their dirty laundry.

Then we learned the rest of the shows in Texas would be cancelled. But now

After abruptly leaving the stage in Dallas and canceling another in Houston, Kings of Leon frontman Caleb Followill and his bandmates have rescheduled their Texas concert dates.

As we told you earlier, Caleb left the stage during their Dallas performance after complaining of the heat.

The band apologized to their fans, with Caleb's brother Jared alluding that there might have been more than just heat exhaustion.

Thankfully, the band has rescheduled the two shows, September 21 in Dallas and September 22 in Houston. Tickets for the previous shows will be honored and refunds will be honored for fans who cannot make the new dates.

Good move, guys. The fans deserved a full show so this will definitely make it up to them. In the meantime, we hope you work on your issues so that this doesn't happen again.

Kings of Leon frontman Caleb Followill got really sick while performing in Dallas Friday night. The temperature was in the high 90s, which prompted the singer to complain of getting "hot."

He then told the crowd:

"My voice is completely 100 percent wrong. I'm sorry.

I'm gonna go backstage for a second. I'm gonna vomit. I'm gonna drink some beer … and for the record, I'm not drunk … I'm about to fall down here because I'm so goddamn hot. … I'm gonna come back out here and I'm gonna play three more songs."

But he never came back.

Bandmate and younger brother Jared Followill addressed the crowd after he left, apologizing to fans.
