Ariana Grande cancels tour dates due to adult on-set tomato allergy

Ariana Grande’s highly-anticipated Sweetener World Tour is currently underway.

But yesterday (29th May), the concert faced an unexpected hurdle which saw her cancel shows in Tampa and Orlando.

After Live Nation announced that the Tampa and Orlando tour stops were cancelled,  Grande took to Instagram to reveal that the cancellations were a result of an adult-onset tomato allergy: “We discovered ….. that ….. i had an unfortunate allergic reaction to tomatoes and my throat pretty much closed, still feels like i’m swallowing a cactus but slowly making progress! thank u all for your love and understanding.”

Grande went on: “p.s. there is NOTHING MORE UNFAIR THAN AN ITALIAN WOMAN DEVELOPING AN ALLERGY TO TOMATOES IN HER MID TWENTIES.”
