Singer Kelly Clarkson Cancels Concerts Due to Vocal Cord Injury

On Sept 25, 2015, Kelly Clarkson released a statement on her website that she's canceling the rest of her concerts for 2015 on orders of her doctor, presumably due to vocal cord nodules.

"Regretfully, due to instruction of her doctor, Kelly Clarkson must remain on vocal rest for the remainder of the year resulting in the cancellation of her scheduled tour dates in Canada and the UK. All tickets will be refunded at the original point of purchase. "I am truly sorry that I have to cancel the remainder of my tour dates. I was so looking forward to sharing this tour with all my amazing fans in Canada and the UK. Unfortunately my doctor is telling me I have to stay on vocal rest, but I am working hard to get better as fast as possible." [link]
