Fiona Apple cancels upcoming tour to care for her sick dog
Fiona Apple has announced the cancellation of her forthcoming South American tour to look after her dog, who is in ill health.
Yep, you read that correctly. The singer revealed the news in a handwritten open letter, in which she wrote:
“I have a dog Janet, and she’s been ill for almost two years now, as a tumor has been idling in her chest, growing ever so slowly… She’s my best friend and my mother and my daughter, and my benefactor, and she’s the one who taught me what love is… I can’t come to South America. Not now. When I got back from the last leg of the US tour, there was a big,big difference. She doesn’t even want to go for walks anymore… So I am staying home, and I am listening to her snore and wheeze, and reveling in the swampiest, most awful breath that ever emanated from an angel.”
