    The ‘Complicated’ singer is forced to postpone the Asian leg of her world tour amid concerns over the deadly illness that started in Wuhan, China last year.

    AceShowbiz – Avril Lavigne has reportedly put a string of shows in Asia on hold over growing concerns about the coronavirus.
    The “Complicated” hitmaker, who suffers with Lyme disease, is set to kick off her world tour next month, March 2020 in Europe, with planned stops in in Italy, Belgium, France, Germany, the U.K., and more.
    According to TMZ, however, Avril has pulled out of the Asian leg of the jaunt, which was supposed to begin on April 23 in Shenzhen, China.
    The star is reportedly axing 12 dates in total, including stops in Shanghai, the Philippines, Tokyo, Hong Kong and Taiwan, with sources confirming she hopes to reschedule the shows at a later date once more is known about the disease and it’s under control.
    It’s currently unclear if the European dates will also be impacted by the change in schedule.
    The singer joins a host of acts including Green Day and BTS, both of which have backed out of upcoming Asian shows due to the coronavirus crisis.
    More than 83,000 people had contracted the disease, a deadly virus related to influenza, with more than 2,800 fatalities. Most cases to date have been in China, where the outbreak originated.

      AceShowbiz – Halsey and Avril Lavigne’s concerts in Switzerland are in jeopardy after the country banned major public events in a bid to combat the spread of the coronavirus.
      Any event attracting a crowd of more than 1,000 will not be allowed to go ahead until 15 March, Swiss officials announced on Friday, February 28.
      The “Bad at Love” singer is scheduled to perform at Samsung Hall in Zurich on Monday, but the gig is now not going ahead on that date, according to venue chiefs. Avril is due to perform there on 13 March.
      “The Federal Council has decided that all events with over 1,000 guests are not allowed to take place until at least March 15, 2020,” a statement on the Samsung Hall website reads. “At the moment we do not have all the information from organizers on how to proceed with the shows in the Samsung Hall.”
      They went on to say that Halsey’s gig “will not take place” on Monday – but they will look to arrange another date with the singer. They are yet to provide any information on whether Avril’s concert will be rearranged or cancelled.

      Sam Fender, due to perform in Zurich on Sunday, and Gregory Porter, due to play in the city on Friday, are also among the artists affected.
      The number of confirmed coronavirus cases in Switzerland has risen to 15, with more than 100 people in quarantine. The virus has now spread across the world, with major outbreaks in South Korea, Japan, and Italy prompting the cancellation of gigs.
      More than 83,000 people had contracted the disease, a deadly virus related to influenza, with more than 2,800 fatalities. Most cases to date have been in China, where the outbreak originated.
