LeAnn Rimes Postpones More Shows to 'Heal From This Sickness'

LeAnn Rimes‘ ongoing illness continues to impact her highly anticipated tour.

The singer took to her Instagram Stories on Tuesday and shared that due to doctors orders, she’s rescheduling two more shows from her 30 Years of Blue tour. 

“After a follow up visit with my doctor, she has strongly advised me to take an additional week for vocal rest while I heal from this sickness,” she wrote. “Sadly this means I can no longer perform this weekend in Washington and Wilmington. These shows are NOT canceled and I am so exited to see you at the rescheduled dates.”

The specific pair of shows have been postponed to later this summer.

“I can’t wait to be healthy and back on stage, making new memories with you!” she added. I’ll see you in August!

The tour, which kicked off a few weeks ago, has been brought to a halt due to Rimes’ sickness which she characterized as “a diagnosis of covid leading to severe laryngitis,” in her initial announcement. “A visit to my doctor for a scope of my vocal cords has confirmed the news and I wanted to tell you as soon as I could.”

“It breaks my heart, having to reschedule these shows,” she added at the time. “This is sadly out of my hands until I get this under control.”

Just last week, Rimes again postponed shows, sharing that she’s “still working my way through voice rest, trying to get myself back to health as quickly as possible.” 

She has also been dealing with intense jaw issues. In a video posted at the end of March, she shared her painful therapy that she undergoes to release the pressure.

The postponed dates for her tour can be found on her official website.

The set of concert dates was slated to specifically celebrate 30 years of her first album, ‘Blue,’ which includes a song by the same name that won her her first Grammy. The album also includes other popular songs including “One Way Ticket (Because I Can)” and “The Light In Your Eyes.”
