The original “American Idol” winner, already embroiled in a "My December" album feud with RCA chairman Clive Davis that reportedly contributed to a Tuesday decision to part ways with her longtime manager Jeff Kwatinetz only two weeks before the new album's June 26 release, has now postponed her upcoming summer tour, People reported Thursday.
"Plans for Kelly Clarkson's summer tour have been shelved for now as the singer and her team re-evaluate her show's size and scope - a decision made even more difficult by the impending release of her album, 'My December,'" her representative Paul Freundlich said in a statement, according to People.
"In the craziness of the music business, performing is what I look forward to doing the most, so it really is disappointing for me to have to tell you that I won't be coming out to tour this summer. The fact is that touring is just too much too soon," Clarkson wrote in a fan statement released on her website.
Clarkson's tour was originally scheduled to kick-off on Wednesday, July 11 at Portland, OR's Rose Garden Arena and span more than 30 North American cities before concluding on Saturday, September 29 in Las Vegas, NV at the MGM Grand Garden Arena, according to Reality TV World.
According to Clarkson's website, current ticket holders can get refunds at their original point of purchase. In addition, once the new tour dates are announced, they will be given an exclusive presale opportunity to purchase tickets to the new concert dates.
