Singer Kesha has postponed several of her upcoming performances following a knee injury that she sustained during her Dubai show earlier this month.
The 30-year-old singer said she was "heartbroken" to announce the postponement of the March and April dates of her world tour. The shows that are affected include dates in Australia, New Zealand, Taiwan and Japan.
"I'm heartbroken to be writing this right now. I am being forced to postpone some of my upcoming international dates due to a recent injury I sustained while performing. It's my biggest joy in life to share my music with my fans all over the world, but I have to follow my doctors orders and undergo surgery to repair my torn ACL (anterior cruciate ligament) so I can get ready to give it all on my Summer tour and beyond," Kesha posted on Instagram.

"Moving these dates is making me sick with sadness, but I tried to will this injury away and unfortunately it didn't work. I love you all and I'll work every single day as hard as I can to recover and get back on stage as soon as possible. I'm so sorry and sending love always," she added.
Kesha had suffered an injury on her knee following a hard fall on-stage at her Dubai concert on February 9 and she recently underwent surgery.
Touring company Select Touring urged fans to hold on to their tickets and said they will be valid for rescheduled dates.
"The postponed 7 dates were set to begin March 25 in Brisbane, Australia . Ticket-holders for Australia and New Zealand are encouraged to hold onto their tickets and stay tuned for further information about rescheduled dates, which will be announced in the near future," the company said.
