PinkPantheress cancels all 2024 tour dates | Ents & Arts News
Singer and songwriter PinkPantheress has cancelled all tour dates for the rest of the year.
The 23-year-old musician, who rose to fame after sharing snippets of her songs on TikTok during the pandemic, says she wants to focus on her “physical health and overall wellbeing”.
The singer, whose real name is Victoria Beverley, shared the news with her 2.2m followers on Instagram.
She wrote in a story: “It is with the heaviest heart that sadly [I] have to announce that I will not be able to continue with the rest of my live shows this year in order to focus on my physical health and overall wellbeing.
“It appears I have reached a wall which I’m struggling to penetrate through.”
It means she’ll no longer be opening slots on Olivia Rodrigo‘s Guts tour in the US or Coldplay‘s Music Of The Spheres gigs in Australia and New Zealand.
