Kim Petras recently announced that she will no longer be performing at upcoming festivals this summer due to undisclosed health issues. She shared this news on social media, expressing her devastation over the situation and promising to make it up to her fans soon. Petras was set to perform at LadyLand Music Fest in June, as well as at Primavera Sound in Barcelona, Mighty Hoopla, and Capitol Hill Block Party.

Last month, Petras opened up about seeking therapy following the success of her song “Unholy” with Sam Smith reaching Number One in the U.S. She shared that the sudden fame felt overwhelming and exposed, leading her to seek therapy to cope with the attention. Petras emphasized the importance of therapy for mental health and recommended it to everyone, especially those in the music industry where things can get hectic.
