Ariana Grande Postpones Florida Shows Due to ‘Unfortunate Allergic Reaction to Tomatoes’

Pop music’s petite powerhouse explained to fans on Instagram Wednesday on why she cancelled her Tampa and Orlando shows at the last minute.

The 25-year-old record-shattering Thank U, Next singer and cultural titan was set to perform at Amalie Arena Tuesday as part of her Sweetener world tour. Then, with only a few hours warning, events promoter Live Nation announced the night’s show, and as well as the next one’s in Orlando, would be cancelled due to illness.

The sudden-onset adult tomato allergy resulted in the postponement of Tuesday night’s show at Amalie Arena in Tampa and Wednesday night’s gig at the Amway Center in Orlando; they have been rescheduled for, respectively, Nov. 24 and Nov. 25. As you might imagine, Grande was devastated by the news, because it meant she had to miss two shows, but also for one other very important reason.

Get well Ariana!
