Lady Gaga cancels tour dates

WASHINGTON — US pop star Lady Gaga Saturday announced she had canceled the last 10 shows of the European leg of her world tour due to “severe pain.” In a statement posted on Twitter, the Grammy award-winning singer told fans she was “devastated” but said the decision to cancel the dates on her Joanne World Tour — her fifth headlining tour — was “beyond her control.” Shows affected include dates in London, Paris and Berlin, as well as Stockholm, Zurich and Copenhagen. Dates in Cologne, Germany and Manchester, England were also halted. It comes after the singer canceled another show in Rio de Janeiro in September after being hospitalized, also due to severe pain. Lady Gaga has previously revealed she suffers from the chronic pain condition fibromyalgia.
