“She looks forward to finishing the tour and ending it on a high note, both healthily and happily,” the rep explained. “And then taking a much-deserved break from public-facing work and appearances, which has led to endless, ongoing public scrutiny.”
The rep further shared, “This tour has been a beautiful experience for her. She loves her fans and has loved every minute of this tour so much.”
