Lily Allen Cancels Most U.S. Shows, Citing Fatigue & Poor Performances
Lily Allen checked in with fans on her blog at Myspace on Monday (April 16), with sad news that fans had been nervous about in wake of some previous postings and comments. “Hey Guys. I’m writing to tell you that I have cancelled many of my May and June tour commitments in America,” Allen writes. “The reason for this, is because my mummy and daddy are very rich, and I have never been in a position where I have actually had to do any hard work before. I thought that being a popstar meant going out getting trashed with famous people and sleeping in all day. The fact that this is not true has come as a huge dissapiontment to me, and as a result I am throwing the towel in. No but seriously, I have been on tour with this album for a year now, I have fulfilled every commitment up to this point. I am tired, but more than that I don’t think I have been giving my best performances recently. I have been getting really drunk because I’ve been so nervous about doing bad shows, and I don’t want people spending money on a going to see a show that isn’t the best it could be. I am not falling apart at the seems, I am not suffering with exhaustion, I am not pregnant, and I am not going to rehab. I will be here in America, promoting the album and also starting to write the second album, which I am beyond excited about. The LA and New York shows will still be happening, and I am still playing Coachella and Bonaroo and all the other festivals. I’d like to apologize to anyone who has bought tickets, but you can get your money back, if you take ‘em back to the place you bought them from.”
