Yungblud Addresses the Health Scare That Forced Him to Cancel His 2025 Tour

After getting home from the road, he had routine tests done — specifically voice and blood tests — and the results “raised some concerns.”
His doctor ordered him to take a break from touring until the end of the year.
He acknowledged that he has a tendency to “run … until I run myself into the ground … without giving a f— about anything apart from the music and you guys.” But he said this time, he’s been told he needs to take things seriously.
He said his heart is broken about canceling shows (in Philadelphia, Cleveland, Washington, Mexico City, Latin America, etc.), but he’s doing it because he doesn’t want lasting damage to his health.
As for fans:
- U.S. ticket holders will get refunds.
- Fans who provide their address will receive a “gift” from him.
He promised he’ll make it up to his fans, and said he plans to return:

“USA I will see you next year. Mexico and LATAM … we are already looking into … more affordable … shows … It’s gonna be unbelievable.”
On a personal note, he said:

“I don’t want to do any lasting damage to myself, we are on a journey that I want to last forever.”

He didn’t specify exactly what the “concerning” blood or voice test results were. Media outlets report elevated levels in his bloodwork, but no definitive diagnosis has been publicly shared.
He didn’t detail what “lasting damage” he fears — whether it’s vocal cord damage, something more systemic, or a longer-term health risk.

This isn’t just a short break: canceling the rest of 2025’s shows suggests the medical concern is serious enough that his team and doctors don’t want to take chances.
It highlights how demanding touring life can be, even for very successful artists — and how health can sometimes force hard decisions.
He’s signalling that recovery and longevity are his priorities, not just pushing through for the sake of doing shows.
