Is Avril Lavigne’s tour cursed?

Avril Lavigne

Is Avril Lavigne’s Best Damn Tour cursed?

Before the Complicated singer hit the road earlier this year, she had never had to cancel a single show.

But now the 23-year-old has axed nine in less than two months!

After canceling concerts in San Diego and Phoenix due to a bout of laryngitis, Avril has had to scratch another in Barcelona, Spain, because of a truckers’ strike.

Disaster first struck back on April 30 when her voice went out at a rehearsal before her show at the Cox Arena in San Diego, forcing her to cancel two dates and re-schedule six more.

But the acute laryngitis passed after she got some rest at home, and they got the show back on the road for the European leg.

Now fate has dealt another blow.

Truckers in Spain are blocking major routes into the country as part of an “indefinite” protest against high fuel prices, meaning the star will not be able to make her June 15 concert in Barcelona.

In an email, Barcelona concert promoter Doctor Music tells OK!, “the concert was canceled because of [the unwillingness] of the artist.”

The tour is scheduled to finish in St. John’s, Canada, on August 13. But who knows what will have happened by then!

Avril Lavigne is going to launch her first fragrance

Avril Lavigne

Britney Spears already has her famous family of fragrances, and Christina Aguilera will launch her first American scent soon — and now it looks like pop’s edgier princess is getting in on the fragrance game too. Avril Lavigne has just confirmed to WWD that she’s inked a deal with Proctor & Gamble Prestige Products to create a perfume line directed at her teen fans.

“Creating this fragrance is a fun process and I am looking forward to sharing it with everyone,” she tells the paper. And while there’s no official launch date yet, the fragrance is expected to hit stores sometime during the second half of 2009.

Will you wear Avril’s scent?

Avril Lavigne cancels six more concerts

Avril Lavigne

Illness has forced Canadian singer Avril Lavigne to pull out of six dates of the US leg of her worldwide tour.

The 23-year-old has cancelled six concerts from The Best Damn Tour due to acute laryngitis.

Four shows in California - Anaheim, Universal City, Santa Barbara and San Jose – and two in Washington – Everett and Spokane – have been dropped.

A message on the singer’s website said refunds would be available from point of purchase from Monday onwards.

Avril had already canceled shows in Phoenix and San Diego due to illness.

“My sincerest apologies to all of my fans,” she said on her official website.

“My intention was to complete the rest of the tour but tonight at sound check in Anaheim I realised this wasn’t possible. Even though I have been resting my voice for days, when I tried to sing nothing came out.”

She went on to say: “I have never canceled a show in my whole career and just had to for the first time ever. This sux [sic]!”

Avril is next due to perform in Glasgow on May 26th as the UK-leg of her tour begins.

Avril Lavigne apologizes to her fans

Avril Lavigne

Avril Lavigne had to cancel a show recently, much to the dismay of her fans.

She has taken to her Myspace blog to apologize:

“Hey Guys,

I am at home right now taking it easy. I have been sick this whole tour, and now I have lost my voice. I have never canceled a show in my whole career and just had to for the first time ever. This sux!

I am so sorry! I have been on the road for 60 days straight. I have had the flu 3 times and I never get sick, it just keeps going around. I think I am just run down. I just played 4 shows in a row in Texas (which is a lot for the vocals) and woke up in Vegas Tuesday with no voice. I thought I was gonna have to cancel that show, but I made it through…..barely! I still went on stage in Vegas and gave it my all, but unfortunately its interfering with my throat now. I had to eliminate songs.

I woke up yesterday and knew I wouldn’t be able to sing last night. My voice is so shot. We drove home yesterday and I went to my throat doctor. He stuck a camera down my throat….ewwww, I gagged!!! It was kinda funny though…..he said I have “Acute Laryngitis”.

So, um, yeah, that sux. I was supposed to play a show in San Diego yesterday and was supposed to perform on Jay Leno tomorrow and go live with Ryan Seacrest in the today, but I had to cancel that too. I’m at home resting my voice for 2 days and hope to be back out soon. Thank you for understanding. And once again, I sincerely apologize.

Avril”
