Lizzo Cancels Montreal Show Due To Illness, Revealing News In Bed

Lizzo’s current tour in support of her fourth studio album Special has been canceled.

After becoming ill with flu-like symptoms, the rapper, singer, and flutist was forced to cancel her scheduled show at Montreal’s Bell Centre on Thursday.

In an Instagram video showing the Truth Hurts star wearing a face mask and covered up in a blanket, she laid out the various symptoms she’s been feeling since Wednesday night.

‘Hey Montreal, I had a sore throat last night (Wednesday) and a headache. And I went to bed and I woke up this morning (Thursday) and I was worse,’ she said, while sounding as if she was about to cry.

‘My body is weak and i have chills and my heard hurts, she continued. ‘Normally, if it’s just a cold, I’ll show and I will eat, take some medicine and it gets better. But this is getting worse.’

Lizzo (born Melissa Viviane Jefferson), 35, went on to reveal that she suspects she has ‘the flu.’

She would eventually share a tweet about having a 102-degree fever, as reported by TMZ.

It’s at this point in the clip where she said she had to make ‘the unfortunate decision to cancel tonight,’ which is the show at Bell Centre.

‘I want to find a date to reschedule, but I just can’t perform tonight (Thursday),’ she added, while sounding remorseful.

The Detroit, Michigan native claims this is just the second time she has ever had to ‘cancel something due to health in my entire career.’

She concluded the post by promising to ‘make it up to you Montreal. So sorry.’
