Olivia Newton-John Shuts Down Touring Due To Illness

Olivia Newton-John is currently suffering from a bout of bronchitis and has been forced to postpone dates.

Out was last night’s show at the Pala Casino Spa Resort in Pala, CA and tonight’s at Fantasy Springs Resort in Indio, CA. Her next scheduled appearance isn’t until April 22 at the Trump Taj Mahal in Atlantic City.

Olivia wrote to her fans on Facebook and her webpage:

It is with deep regret that I was not able to perform last night at the Pala Casino Spa Resort. I thought I would be able to sing through the bronchitis I am fighting but, it just didn’t turn out the way I had hoped.

Unfortunately I will also have to postpone my scheduled concert tonight at Fantasy Springs.

The understanding and compassion from the audience last night, and the beautiful stories people shared with me, truly warmed my heart.

To my fans who planned on attending the Fantasy Springs concert tonight, I am so sorry. But, I am happy to say we have rescheduled the show for April 29th.

Again, thank you everyone for your understanding and apologies for any inconvenience. I promise I will make it up to all of you!

With love and light,

– Olivia

Olivia has a new album coming on June 10, LIV-ON, a collaboration between Newton-John, Beth Nielsen Chapman and Amy Sky.
