Lady Gaga is in "severe pain" and must postpone the European leg of her "Joanne World Tour," according to a new statement made by Live Nation on Monday (September 18).
Posted on the promoter's website, the statement revealed that the six-week trek has been pushed back until 2018 as she remains under the care of experts. "Lady Gaga is suffering from severe physical pain that has impacted her ability to perform. She remains under the care of expert medical professionals who recommended the postponement earlier today," the statement read. "Lady Gaga is devastated that she has to wait to perform for her European fans. She plans to spend the next seven weeks proactively working with her doctors to heal from this and past traumas that still affect her daily life, and result in severe physical pain in her body."
Team Gaga is working on rescheduling all of the European dates and urges Little Monsters to hold onto their existing tickets until further information is announced. Gaga's tour was scheduled to begin on September 21 in Barcelona, Spain and conclude on October 28 in Koln, Germany.
In the meantime, Gaga "sends her love to all her fans across Europe and thanks them for their support and understanding." After all, she is hoping to give them the "best version of the show she built" when the tour resumes. Here's to a speedy recovery, Gaga!
