Aguilera cancels US tour
By CMU Editorial | Published on Thursday 27 May 2010
Christina Aguilera has announced that she has decided to postpone here upcoming US tour, due to take place in July and August, as she’s been a bit busy lately and forgot to get ready for it. The singer cited the recent completion of filming on her forthcoming movie ‘Burlesque’, and promotional work for new album ‘Bionic’, as the pesky things that had caused the cancellation. Oh, and the fact that no one has heard her new album yet, so can’t join in with a good old singsong and/or knees up.
Writing on her website, Aguilera said: “I made the decision to move my summer tour and I am truly sorry to those of you who had purchased tickets and have been disappointed by the news. Immediately after wrapping production on ‘Burlesque’, I went directly back into the studio and then quickly started the promotional process for ‘Bionic’. With both the album press and film press I am booked the entire summer and need time to focus on the work at hand”.
She continued: “After reviewing the schedule with my team, I realised there was not enough time to put together and rehearse for a proper show, one that is at the calibre you expect from me or at the level I would present to my fans. In addition, my album has not even been released as yet and I would like for you all to become familiar with the music before you hear it live on tour”.
New tour dates are expected to be scheduled for early 2011 later this year.
