The pop star, who has the chronic pain condition fibromyalgia, pulls out of gig in Brazil saying ‘it’s not simply wear and tear’ from her world tour
Lady Gaga has been forced to cancel the Rio concert of her world tour, citing “severe pain” for which she had to be hospitalised.
She wrote on Twitter and Instagram: “It’s not simply hip pain or wear & tear from tour, I’m in severe pain. I’m in good hands [with] the very best doctors.”
On her Instagram post she shared a photo of her tattoo that reads “Rio”, adding “Remember years ago when I tattooed Rio on my neck, the tattoo was written by children in the favelas ... You hold a special place in my heart I love you.” In another post she wrote: “I would do anything 4 u but I have to take care of my body right now.”
