LeAnn Rimes Says COVID-Related Severe Laryngitis Forces More Tour Postponements

The singer says COVID caused severe laryngitis that is prompting further delays on her 30th‑anniversary run.

Overview

  • Rimes, who announced on Wednesday that a “severe illness” made her unable to travel, rescheduled Spokane to May 31 and Seattle to June 2 with tickets honored or refunded.
  • She later said a COVID diagnosis led to severe laryngitis confirmed by a vocal cord scope, and she moved Waukegan, Illinois, and Wilmington, Ohio, to November 6 and 7 with refunds available.
  • Rimes told fans she is heartbroken and recuperating as promoters notify ticket holders about new dates and options.
  • The updates follow months of candid health posts, including a $10,000 plasma‑exchange treatment and a widely shared deep jaw‑release video that she defended as authentic.
  • The ‘30 Years of Blue’ tour marks three decades since her 1996 breakthrough album Blue and launched on April 19.
