“I’m extremely disappointed, I was really looking forward to kicking off the holiday season performing at this year’s Jingle Ball,” she continued.

“I’m so sorry I won’t be there to celebrate the season with all my fans, but I hope you enjoy the rest of the amazing line-up the show has planned for you all. Sending my love to you all!”
