Morrissette's Last-Minute Cancellation Sparks Concern Over the State of His Health
Morrissey has canceled not one, but two concerts in Mexico, leaving fans scratching their heads over the reason behind the sudden decision. The first show was scheduled to take place last night at Palacio de los Deportes in Mexico City, while the other was set for Nov. 4 at Auditorio Telmex in Zapopan.
According to his concert promoter, OCESA, Morrissey's team announced that he is "extremely exhausted" as the reason for the cancellation. While this explanation has raised some eyebrows, it's not uncommon for artists to cancel shows due to exhaustion, particularly when they're on a long tour schedule.
In related news, fans who purchased tickets online will automatically receive a refund, while those who bought through Ticketmaster or the box office can request refunds starting Nov. 7. Morrissey's official website recently posted a video of his song "I Know It's Gonna Happen Someday" on Saturday, accompanied by several Mexican flag emojis and the title of the 1992 hit.
This cancellation marks the latest in a string of shows that have been scrapped or postponed in recent months. In the summer, Morrissey canceled his show in Stockholm due to struggles securing support from the music industry for his European tour. He also cancelled concerts in Boston and Connecticut earlier this month, citing a "credible threat" on his life.
Despite these setbacks, Morrissey remains scheduled to perform in South America through the end of the month, including Nov. 8 at Movistar Arena in Buenos Aires, Argentina, and Dec. 12 in Greece, which will close out the year for him. His US tour kicks off January 3 in Rancho Mirage, California, and wraps up on Jan. 22 in Hollywood, Florida.
While Morrissey's fans are likely used to last-minute cancellations, this latest move has sparked some concern over the state of his health. Only time will tell if he'll be able to recover from exhaustion or if there are other factors at play that need to be addressed.

I'm drawing a worried-looking Morrissey face 
with two X's through it, one for each cancelled concert 
His fans are probably used to him cancelling at the last minute, but this is on a whole other level. And what about all these "credible threats" he's been giving as a reason for cancelling? It sounds like some pretty sketchy stuff 
, with big X's through each cancelled concert and only a few shows left before his US tour starts. Let's hope he gets his health sorted out ASAP 
. I know artists can get exhausted on tour, but this seems like more than that. Is everything okay? 
Has anyone checked his blood pressure or something? 
It's not like him to cancel last minute for no reason... The song drop was a nice touch tho 
. Two shows in one night?! That's a lot of energy draining, you know? 
. And yeah, the industry support thing in Stockholm was pretty shady... fingers crossed he gets it together for the rest of his tour 
. I'll keep an eye out for more updates! 
. It's a reminder that taking care of ourselves isn't selfish, it's necessary 
.
... Like, his team is giving us "extremely exhausted" as a reason for canceling concerts? 
According to Box Office Mojo, Morrissey's 2019-2020 tour grossed $44.8 million 
... That's a lot of pressure! 
: 
But what's worrying me is that these cancellations keep happening... 
According to Pollstar, Morrissey's average ticket price per show is around $120 
.
still hoping he'll be ok tho 
fingers crossed for him! 
I mean, I love his music and all, but come on! He needs to get his act together if he wants to keep performing. 
... Guess we'll just have to wait and see what happens next 
... now it feels like his shows are being cancelled at the last minute without explanation 
... two concerts cancelled in one week? That's like, super exhausting 
. Has anyone else noticed that his team keeps changing the reason for cancellations? First it was "credible threat", now "extremely exhausted"?
