Excerpts:

In a statement posted to his Instagram, Mendes shared that he would “unfortunately” have to cancel all the North American, U.K. and European dates of the tour, which was set to kick off in June.

“After speaking with my team and working with an incredible group of health professionals, it has become more clear that I need to take the time I’ve never taken personally, to ground myself and come back stronger,” the artist said.

The singer noted that despite starting “this tour excited to finally get back to playing live after a long break due to the pandemic,” he was not “at all ready for how difficult touring would be after this time away.” The statement mirrors a similar one he made back in July when the “In My Blood” singer announced he was postponing the first three weeks of the tour.

“This doesn’t mean I won’t be making new music, and I can’t wait to see you on tour in the future,” Mendes added. “I know you all have been waiting so long to see these shows, and it breaks my heart to tell you this but I promise I will be back as soon as I’ve taken the right time to heal.”

“The truth is that I’m overwhelmed and overstimulated,” he concluded. “The truth is also that I’m okay. I’m just tryna tell and be the truth.
