Pop singer Selena Gomez has cancelled her upcoming Australian concert tour, saying she needs to take some time off, and put herself before work.
The 21-year-old former Disney star was scheduled to perform five concerts in Australia, beginning on February 1, 2014, in Perth and concluding on February 8 in Melbourne.
“My fans are so important to me and I would never want to disappoint them,” the singer said in a statement, “but it has become clear to me and those close to me that after many years of putting my work first, I need to spend some time on myself in order to be the best person I can be.”
A source close to Gomez told People magazine that everything is fine with her and all she needs is a little time to spend with her family. “She’s been on the road for six months and she’s just ready to be normal at home with her family,” the source says. “She’s been working nonstop since she was 15 and wants to take a minute to herself.”
We hope she feels refreshed and gets back to doing what she does best soon.
