Demi Lovato has dropped major news that has her Lovatics buzzing with mixed emotions. The pop star announced she is canceling five dates and pushing back the start of her upcoming It’s Not That Deep tour to prioritize her health after realizing she had “overextended what may be possible” during rehearsals.

Originally set to kick off on April 8 in Charlotte, North Carolina, the tour’s launch is now rescheduled to April 13 in Orlando, Florida. Shows in Charlotte, Nashville, Atlanta, Las Vegas, and Denver have been cut from the itinerary, with refunds automatically available for fans who bought tickets through major platforms.

Lovato shared the update directly on Instagram Stories, speaking with raw honesty and gratitude. She said she is excited to be back on the road but recognized that her body and voice need more time to rest, rehearse, and adjust to the full run of shows so she can “give you my all” at every gig.

This marks Lovato’s first major tour in years promoting her ninth studio album It’s Not That Deep, released in October 2025. The project blends dance-pop energy with personal storytelling, and it debuted strongly on the Billboard charts. The tour also features rising artist Adéla as the opening act, adding fresh creative synergy to the run.

Supporters praised Demi’s transparency and her decision to take care of herself first, while others questioned the timing and the real reasons behind the cancellations, with speculation around ticket sales and logistics.
