Before she became a powerhouse producer and singer-songwriter with 17.6 million monthly listeners on Spotify, PinkPantheress was a teenage girl who dropped songs anonymously from her bedroom. Eventually, tracks like "Break It Off" and "Pain" took off on TikTok, she released one of the biggest songs of 2023 with Ice Spice, and she garnered an A-list fan club including Coldplay, Paramore, KAYTRANADA, and Camila Cabello in the process. Her fresh perspective and distinct samples put a new spin on the Y2K nostalgia we all know and love, which can be heard on her latest Selena-sampling single "Turn It Up." She even joined Olivia Rodrigo's GUTS tour as the opener.
But then on Thursday, August 1, the genre-defying artist revealed she is pulling out of upcoming performances and appearances to prioritize her health. She shared an update with fans via her Instagram Stories, writing:
"It is with the heaviest heart that I sadly have to announce that I will not be able to continue with the rest of my live shows this year in order to focus on my physical health and overall well-being. It appears I have reached a wall which I am struggling to penetrate through. This will include my GUTS Tour, Field Day, Summer Sonic Form, III Points, and Australia/NZ appearances.
"I would like to thank all of you, as well as my touring team and Olivia for giving me the platform to perform some super fun shows. I'm sad to disappoint anyone and can only hope we will be in each other's company once I return to health."
Before this, PinkPantheress stopped by Cosmopolitan HQ to talk about artistry, TikTok fame, and discovering her identity through music. |
