Cher has canceled the remaining 29 dates on her Dressed To Kill tour after developing a viral infection that’s “affected her kidney function,” according to a press release.
The singer postponed several dates in September when the infection was first spotted, but a month later they were rescheduled. Now the final leg of the tour, which first launched in March, has been nixed altogether.
Cher took to Twitter to express her disappointment, saying this and the death of director Mike Nichols, with whom she worked on the movie “Silkwood,” have left her “devastated”:
I’m SORRY I Couldn’t B the 1 to tell you about postponing my tour.
