Hope Adele’s break-up songs have helped y’all learn how to cope with loss, because this one might hurt a little bit: After already having canceled five shows (Minneapolis, Salt Lake City, Vancouver, Seattle, Portland) due to problems with laryngitis, the singer, who is straight destroying the Billboard charts these days, has just released a statement announcing that her nine remaining U.S. dates have been canceled as well. Yes, that includes her scheduled Dallas stop for Wednesday, June 15.
The token apology quote from Adele within release announcing the news:
“I’m really frustrated. I was hoping with a weeks rest I’d be better
to sing again straight away. However there is absolutely nothing I can
do but take the doctors advice and rest some more. I’m so sorry. See
you soon, love Adele.”
At the moment, there’s no news on rescheduled performances; they’re just “being investigated” at the moment, says the press release, which you can read in full after the jump.
