Christine and the Queens has cancelled all his remaining tour dates for 2024 on doctor's orders.
The French singer, who also goes by the name Red or Chris, has been forced to cut his current jaunt in support of his latest LP 'Paranoia, Angels, True Love' short, due to an undisclosed medical issue.
A social media statement read: “Red (aka Christine and the Queens) was taken ill today and on advice of doctors forced to make the difficult decision to cancel all remaining tour dates for 2023."
The North American leg would have been taking place now and was due to wrap on October 26. Red would then embark on the European leg, concluding in Paris’ L’Olympia on November 27.
However, full refunds have been offered for all affected dates.
Last year, Chris “injured himself on stage while dancing” in rehearsals for a tour.
A statement announcing the cancellation of a handful of concerts and the delay to his album ‘Redcar les adorables étoiles’ read: “The doctors have forbidden him to return to the stage for at least three weeks, the time to recover. We are therefore obliged to cancel the concert in Arles on 17 September and to postpone the concerts in Paris and London.”
The record was originally set for release on September 23 and arrived on November 11.
Meanwhile, the 35-year-old star worked with Madonna on his latest album and relished the experience of collaborating with the 65-year-old pop icon, who plays a mysterious character who appears throughout 'Paranoia, Angels, True Love'.
Chris told the BBC: "What is the most emblematic female voice we have in the pop landscape? She has such an imprint on everybody's subconscious.
"She did a very risky FaceTime when I explained the whole concept and I was like, 'Do you want to be an actress in this weird musical? To be exactly also the great actress you are?' Because she's multifaceted. She's not even enclosed in one person.
"And she said, 'Yes!' I think because she was enticed by the insanity of the whole thing. She was like, 'You're crazy. I'll do it!'
"I sent her lines that I wrote because she's embodying the character of Big Eye, a very ambivalent 'being of light'. We don't really know if it's AI, a true angel, or maybe my mum?
"Or if it's maybe me. She has this voice that encloses all of the others and she's piercing through in the record to just give the wisdom we need."
