Olivia Newton-John Postpones Tour Dates Due to Breast Cancer

Olivia Newton-John announced Tuesday that she is "reluctantly" postponing next month's concert tour dates in Canada and the United States. In 2008, she built the Olivia Newton-John Cancer and Wellness Centre in Melbourne, Australia. The Grease star was first diagnosed with breast cancer in 1992—the same weekend her father died of cancer. In a statement shared via her social media, she said the back pain that initially caused her to postpone the first half of her tour has turned out to be breast cancer that has metastasized to the sacrum. Newton-John "is confident she will be back later in the year, better than ever, to celebrate her shows."
