Demi Lovato cancels tour dates in Mexico, South America

Los Angeles: Singer-actress Demi Lovato, currently undergoing treatment at a rehabilitation centre, has cancelled the remaining dates for her 'Tell Me You Love Me' tour.

The tour, organised by Live Nation Entertainment, was headed to six cities across South America later this year. 

"Unfortunately, Demi Lovato has cancelled her upcoming 'Tell Me You Love Me' tour dates in South America, as she is focusing on her recovery," read a statement from Live Nation to variety.com.

Lovato was hospitalised in July when she overdosed following a relapse after six years of sobriety. She spent several weeks in Cedars-Sinai hospital here recovering. 

The 25-year-old former Disney star wrote a lengthy Instagram post on Sunday thanking the hospital staff, her team, and her family for being with her during the hospitalisation process.

"It is something I must continue to overcome and have not done yet," she said of her journey with addiction in the post.

Lovato was scheduled to appear in Chile, Argentina and Brazil starting November 14, but tickets are now refunded following the tour's cancellation. 

Lovato has not kept her most recent relapse a secret, revealing it in her single "Sober", which has seen a newfound popularity on streaming platforms and has returned to the Billboard charts following the initial news of her overdose.
