Celine Dion cancels North American tour dates over health issue
CTV
Celine Dion has cancelled the remaining shows in the North American leg of her 'Courage World Tour' as she continues to recover from a recent health issue.
A statement posted on her website on Saturday said the Quebec singer has been having severe and persistent muscle spasms, with her recovery "taking longer than she hoped." The statement says Dion's medical team continues to evaluate and treat her condition.
Dion had completed the first 52 shows on the tour before the COVID-19 pandemic hit in March 2020. The now-cancelled shows in Canada and the U.S. had been previously rescheduled for March 9 -- April 22, 2022.
Dion said in the statement that she hoped to be "good to go by now," but has to be patient and follow the regime prescribed by her doctors.
"There's a lot of organizing and preparation that goes into our shows, and so we have to make decisions today which will affect the plans two months down the road," Dion said.
