Paula Abdul cancels Canadian tour following injury concerns
The Grammy Award winner revealed that a 'minor procedure' caused an indefinite postponement of her Straight Up! to Canada Tour
Paula Abdul has canceled her upcoming Canada tour following a series of recent injuries.
The Grammy Award winner revealed that a “minor procedure” she needs as a result of recent injuries has caused an indefinite postponement of her Straight Up! to Canada Tour, which was originally set for later this month after tickets went on sale in June.
“It’s with an incredibly heavy heart that I need to share with you an update regarding some injuries I’ve recently sustained,” she shared Instagram.
The Rush Rush singer added, “In an effort to keep going, I’ve received targeted injections that will allow me temporary relief, but the demands of an entire tour is a different story.”
“After multiple consultations with my doctors and exploring all available options, I’ve been advised that one of my injuries requires a minor procedure followed by a 6-8 week recovery time, therefore it will prohibit me from proceeding with the Straight Up! To Canada Tour as well as the dates in Alaska and North Dakota,” noted Abdul.
The 21-city tour was slated to begin in Victoria, British Columbia, on September 25 and continue through October.
