"Wanting to do something so bad and not being able to is the most frustrating thing as Im sure you know! My voice is weak, and I need to build it back up," she added in the lengthy blog post to fans, where she continued to apologize.
The singer was forced to cancel her North American tour in June after suffering a severe case of laryngitis. She was set to pick back up again with a string of shows starting this weekend in Atlantic City.
