00:01I just made this video and it was five minutes long, which is just not realistic to anyone.
00:04So I'm going to try and do it quicker with more facts, less emotion and just be blunt.
00:10So as some of you may know, I just had breast cancer surgery eight weeks ago.
00:13Some of you may not. So that's one thing.
00:16The second thing is, is unfortunately, I have to have a second surgery.
00:20Nothing too serious, but it has to be done before the end of the year.
00:24And unfortunately, that falls right in the middle of a tour that I had booked.
00:28So I'm living in the moment. I'm embracing the moment and I'm flowing with the vibes.
00:33So that is what it is. And I'm sorry. I feel frustrated and sad, but also it is what it is.
00:39And I need to be better. I need to be healed. And I know this is the right decision to make.
00:42So I'm postponing the tour till next year.
00:47There are some dates that have already been allocated and been able to be finessed.
00:50So I'm going to read them out real quick. Birmingham.
00:53Okay. April 20, 26.

01:11Here comes the bad news.
01:12I haven't been able to finesse the US dates yet.
01:16So unfortunately, that will be cancelled.
01:18But with obviously the I'm spending all my time trying to find time where we can get the venues to make sense again in a slab of time next year.
01:29And obviously, I already had things that were booked in next year.
01:33There's other tours.
01:35There's other things happening.
01:36You know, no one knew this was going to happen.
01:38So please bear with us for the US tour.
01:40It's something that I want to do, but when the time is right, so it might be a little later in the year.
01:45It might even be a little earlier.
01:46I don't know yet.
01:49You guys know how much I want to do all of it, but I just can't.
01:51And I have to be realistic.
01:53What I will say, though, is there's new music coming.
01:55So much music.
01:57And I'm literally getting messages right now about my album cover that I've been designing with Mitch in the last few days.
02:03So I cannot wait for you to just have this music.
02:06But as I said, I'm trying to be in the moment.
02:08I'm trying to do my best.
02:09I'm trying to compartmentalize all the different things that are happening in my life and where I have to give the energy.
02:16But I have to heal.
02:18So forgive me.
02:21I'm sorry.
02:22This sucks.
02:23But I know you guys probably knew this was coming.
02:25So, yes, April 2026.
02:27I'll be back out on the road for the UK and European shows.
02:31And the US dates will be announced as soon as we can find time.
02:34And it feels good to do them at the venues we want to do them.
02:39And I love you all so much.
