Sir Rod Stewart, at 80 years young, has hit a major milestone in his legendary career—celebrating his 200th show in Las Vegas with a beaming smile and a heart full of gratitude.
Sharing the joyous moment on Instagram late Thursday, the rock icon posted a series of celebratory snapshots from The Colosseum, where he delivered yet another high-energy performance to his loyal fans. Despite facing personal heartache, Stewart remained the consummate showman, putting on a brave face after a difficult day for his family.
“Show number 200 at @colosseumatcp—what an amazing journey!” he captioned the post, sharing the moment with his 1.5 million followers. The comment section quickly filled with love and praise from fans, many of whom were in the crowd that night.
“Congratulations on 200 unforgettable shows!” one fan wrote. Another added, “Was honored to witness this special night!”
Amid the celebrations, the day carried a bittersweet note for Stewart and his wife, Penny Lancaster. Just hours earlier, Penny had shared the heartbreaking news that their beloved dog, Bubbles, had passed away.
Posting a touching tribute from a plane window, she wrote: “Our fur baby Bubbles. You left too soon, but I’m grateful for every moment. Heaven is lucky to have you, and so was I.” A simple heart emoji closed the message that resonated deeply with fellow pet lovers and fans.
Earlier this month, Lancaster had revealed that Bubbles had been diagnosed with cancer. In a heartfelt post, she wrote about the love and companionship their dogs brought into their lives. “Bubbles, our curly one, had surgery, but the cancer had already spread. Our sweet Lilly from @battersea stays close to him—and to me. I cherish every second with them.”
Despite the emotional weight, Stewart’s milestone show was a celebration of a career still going strong. And the month had already gifted fans with another unforgettable moment: a father-daughter duet on stage with Ruby Stewart, 37. Together, they performed “Forever Young,” a song deeply personal to Stewart, symbolizing the bond between generations.
Rod Stewart’s 200th Vegas performance wasn’t just a show—it was a testament to endurance, love, and the power of music to carry us through life’s highs and lows.
