Chappell Roan, the Good Luck, Babe! singer whose career has exploded in recent months, announced Friday that shes canceling two of her upcoming shows amid recent backlash to some of her political statements.

Roan will not appear at the All Things Go festival in New York City and outside Washington, D.C., this weekend, she notified fans on social media.

Things have gotten overwhelming over the past few weeks and I am really feeling it, Roan wrote. I feel pressures to prioritise a lot of things right now and I need a few days to prioritise my health. I want to be present when I perform and give the best shows possible. Thank you for understanding.

Roan, 26, caused a stir on social media earlier this week after The Guardian published an interview with her where she said she wouldnt endorse Vice President Kamala Harris for president.

I have so many issues with our government in every way, Roan told the paper. There are so many things that I would want to change. So I dont feel pressured to endorse someone. Theres problems on both sides. I encourage people to use your critical thinking skills, use your vote vote small, vote for whats going on in your city.
