A CONTROVERSIAL US rock star has cancelled his European tour after revealing he’s “wildly sick”.
Singer Ryan Adams, 51, also shared that he is selling all of his prized possessions after falling on hard times
Announcing the news that the star had pulled out of his tour dates, his promoter posted: “Due to circumstances beyond our control, the upcoming Ryan Adams European Tour has been cancelled.
“We apologize to all those who bought tickets and were excited for these shows.
“Refunds will be processed automatically and if you have any questions please contact your point of purchase.
“Ryan is doing ok and working hard to finish the new album trilogy. New music on the way.”
Ryan re-posted the statement and wrote: “Tough times. Been sick. Fall tour cancelled.”
Shortly before he revealed that his tour was cancelled, Ryan also shared a post on Instagram where he revealed he was selling his belongings, as he was “broke”.
The singer announced he was putting guitars, studio equipment, and a Cadillac up for sale, among other things,
The emotional statement read: “I’m broke and sick and tired and defeated but my heart is blasting with hope and love and riff optimism and I appreciate anybody who can give these treasured things a new life.
“I’m proud that I did this. That I remain transparent. This business is vile and full of snakes.
“But I’m proud to call it and man up to this. I’ll keep making records as long as I can afford to.
“Now I’m going to go sit in the sunlight with my cats and cry because I need to and I’m not sure how many more times I can hit this wall. When is it enough?”
Ryan has released 30 albums and sold millions of records worldwide.
But despite his fame, he has often hit the headlines for the wrong reasons.
In 2019, seven women came forward, including his ex wife, actress Mandy Moore, with accusations of inappropriate behaviour from him.
At first he denied the allegations, however, the following year he issued a statement where he apologised.
