Kim Petras is taking a vacation for her health.
On Wednesday, the Grammy-winning vocalist announced that she will no longer be performing the summer music festival calendar.
"I'm devastated to be writing this but I'm going through some health issues and under medical advice I have had to make the hard decision to not perform at festivals this summer," she wrote on social media.
She added: "I love u so much and I'll make it up to you and be back better than ever very soon."
The "XXX" singer was scheduled to perform at Primavera Sound in Barcelona in May, Might Hoopla in London and Primavera Sound Porto in Portugal in June, and lastly Capital Hill Block Party in Seattle this July.
All of the festivals wished her rest and recovery on social media.
"We are really sad to learn that Kim Petras won’t be able to perform at this year’s edition of Primavera Sound Barcelona," organizers wrote. "We wish her a speedy recovery and hope to welcome her soon to our festival."
Mighty Hoopla wrote, "We are sending so much love to Kim and will update you on our lineup very soon."
"It is with tremendous sorrow that we announce that Kim Petras's concert has been canceled. We wish her a swift recovery and look forward to seeing her shortly," Primavera Sound Porta wrote.
Capital Hill Block Party added: "Sending Kim all our affection. We're currently investigating our options and will be back as soon as we can with more information. We appreciate your understanding."
Petras did not disclose specifics about her health issues, but she recently completed 36 performances for her Feed the Beast tour which concluded in March.
Last month, the singer opened up about the emotional toll of the triumph her song "Unholy" with Sam Smith took on her. She made history in 2023 as the first openly transgender woman to win a Grammy for best pop/duo group performance.
"Therapy was necessary for me after having a huge song, to learn how to shut everything off," Petras told Cosmopolitan UK in an interview published on March 15. "I had a therapist in my adolescent years and ceased when things grew hectic. But I missed having someone to let everything out to."

"Stay true to what makes you exceptional, believe in that. Disregard what other people have to say. Be really polite," she said. "Find individuals who comprehend you and who want to be on the voyage with you. Find persons you trust. Don't ever forsake the fervor you have as an artist. Make sure that whatever you're a part of, and whatever you make, makes you joyful. It's essential that you enjoy what you do."
