Lady Gaga was scheduled to perform at the Rock in Rio Festival in Brazil this weekend. However, she was made to pull out because of her health.
Initially tweeting that she was “devastated” at not being “well enough” for the gig, an official statement later described how the singer was suffering from “severe physical pain that has impacted her ability to perform”.
“Lady Gaga is under the care of expert medical professionals,” the statement posted to Twitter added. “She sends her love to all her fans in Rio and thanks them for their support and understanding.”
Gaga herself later tweeted to fans to say: “I was taken to the hospital its not simply hip pain or wear & tear from tour, I’m in severe pain. I’m in good hands w/ the very best doctors”.
