Paula Abdul cancels all Canadian tour dates: ‘This truly breaks my heart’
Global News
Paula Abdul's Straight Up! To Canada Tour was scheduled to begin in Victoria, BC, before continuing on to 21 cities across the country.
Singer Paula Abdul has cancelled her Straight Up! To Canada Tour dates.
On Wednesday evening, Abdul, 62, announced the cancellation of her Canadian shows as well as two American concert dates.
In a statement shared to social media, Abdul said she was forced to cancel the tour due to a recent injury that will require her to undergo a minor procedure. She did not provide specifics about the injury or her medical treatment.
“It’s with an incredibly heavy heart that I need to share with you an update regarding some injuries I’ve recently sustained,” Abdul wrote. “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.”
Abdul said her doctors advised her to call off the tour because a necessary medical procedure will require six to eight weeks of recovery.
The Straight Up! To Canada Tour was scheduled to begin in Victoria on Sept. 25. Abdul was slated to perform in 21 Canadian cities — including Edmonton, Regina, Ottawa and Saint John — before ending the run in Sydney, N.S., on Oct. 26.
Adbul’s concerts in North Dakota and Alaska have also been cancelled.
