Paula Abdul has announced the cancellation of her upcoming 'Straight Up! To Canada Tour' due to the need for a minor medical procedure following recent injuries. In a heartfelt message shared on social media, the 62-year-old singer expressed her disappointment, stating that the recovery time from the procedure, estimated at 6-8 weeks, will prevent her from starting the tour as scheduled on September 25. She mentioned that despite receiving targeted injections for temporary relief, the demands of a full tour were too great. Abdul extended her apologies to fans and assured them she would return 'stronger and better.' Refunds for the sold-out tickets will be processed at the point of purchase. The tour was initially set to run through late October, including dates in Alaska and North Dakota.
