Why Did Julien Baker Cancel Her Tour? Health Update
Julien Baker has canceled the remainder of her Send a Prayer My Way Tour with Torres to prioritize her health. A joint statement posted on May 4, 2025, via both artists' Instagram pages stated, 'Due to recent events, Julien Baker is prioritizing her well-being and taking time to focus on her health.' The announcement emphasized that the decision 'was not made lightly' and acknowledged the 'disappointment' it may cause for fans.
The canceled tour, which began on April 23, 2025, included summer dates in cities such as New Orleans, Dallas, and Philadelphia. The musicians' statement also noted that refunds and ticketing information would be handled by the original point of purchase.
This cancellation follows earlier disruptions. On March 27, Baker and Torres canceled a performance and speaking engagement at Ohio University, citing that 'one of our key members sustained a concussion and will need to take the next few weeks to recover.' They also pulled out of the Big Ears Festival in Knoxville, Tennessee, that same month (via USA Today).
Baker and Torres released their collaborative country album 'Send a Prayer My Way' on April 18, 2025. In a March interview on The Daily Show, Torres said the album had been in development for five years and started after she texted Baker during the COVID-19 pandemic. 'Julien was the first person I thought of because she's from Tennessee, I'm from Georgia,' she said. 'It just made sense.'
Baker, 29, first gained recognition with her 2015 debut album Sprained Ankle. She is also part of the Grammy-winning group Boygenius, alongside Phoebe Bridgers and Lucy Dacus. In 2024, Boygenius won three Grammy Awards and later announced a hiatus in February during a secret Los Angeles performance.

Pete Davidson Felt ‘Guilty and Horrible' When Elsie Hewitt Was Forced to Announce Pregnancy
THE RUNDOWN In July, Pete Davidson and girlfriend Elsie Hewitt announced they were expecting their first child together. In an August 13 interview with The Breakfast Club, the Saturday Night Live alum explained how his fame pushed Hewitt to make the announcement and expressed regret over the loss of privacy. 'I feel bad for my girl because I bring a lot of shit,' Davidson admitted. 'Anything I do or she does now is gonna be a thing. She's a very private person and she's the one doing all the work. It's supposed to be a beautiful experience.' The comedian added that he feels a lot of responsibility for the situation even though at this point in his career, the attention is out of his hands and Hewitt doesn't seem to blame him. 'She's never made me feel this way or said anything,' he explained. 'But I feel so guilty and horrible that I could not allow her to have the ideal pregnancy that almost every woman gets to have and enjoy.' The Bupkis star said they 'held off as long as we could' before posting about the pregnancy on Instagram. On July 16, Hewitt shared her sonogram and pics with Davidson, joking in the caption, 'Welp now everyone knows we had sex.' Shortly after, Davidson told E! News, 'I'm very lucky and very, very happy,' adding that he hopes to be able 'to take care of something and show it the childhood I didn't have.' 'I assume you just try to give then what you didn't have, and what you didn't like, not do it,' Davidson continued. 'Everybody's just been super excited for me, because they know it's been my dream. They all just have been like, 'You're going to be great at this. It's the best thing you'll ever do in your life.'' He added, 'It's been really nice that everyone's super excited. When you do something, when we do anything, you want everyone to be excited, especially having a child.'

Singer Victoria Canal accuses ‘powerful, decades-older man' of sexual abuse, grooming in lengthy instagram post
Spanish-American singer Victoria Canal has accused a 'very powerful' man in the music industry of sexually abusing and grooming her eight years ago. Canal shared the shocking allegations in a lengthy Instagram post. 5 Victoria Canal attends the 'Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning' premiere in NYC on May 18, 2025. WireImage 'This is something I've never spoken about publicly, and have been holding for 8 years now – it has plagued my body, spirit, and mind, in subliminal and overt ways, for my entire 20s,' Canal began on Aug. 11. 'It was only earlier this year, when I was assaulted by a stranger in a rehearsal space, that something in my subconscious awoke (including many buried memories) and helped me start to understand the effects of what happened to me,' the 'June Baby' singer continued. 5 Victoria Canal has accused a 'very powerful' man in the music industry of sexually abusing and grooming her eight years ago. Victoria Canal / Instagram 'Today, on my 27th birthday, I am choosing my own freedom by sharing this with you all,' Canal added. 'I am letting it out, to be able to let it go. This decision feels so right in my body.' Canal, who was born without the lower half of her right arm, alleged that a 'very powerful' and 'decades-older man' took advantage of her when she was just 19. Although she would not mention her alleged abuser by name out of fear of retaliation, the pop star described him as someone who appears to be a 'loving, charismatic and principled' family man with a 'very active career.' 'However, behind closed doors, this person has a history of incredibly damaging behavior across the board, and has a team of enablers around him who have fiercely protected his image, perpetuating this behavior for decades,' the 'Cake' singer wrote. 5 Victoria Canal shared the shocking allegations in a lengthy Instagram post. Victoria Canal / Instagram After taking Canal under his wing, the alleged perpetrator purportedly began to touch and take pictures of the pop star without her consent. 'These behaviors progressed over a year, slowly keeping me more isolated in a highly unfamiliar and contained environment,' Canal alleged further. 'At the time, this person made me believe that if I ever told anyone what he was doing, my career would be over before it started.' Following 'a little over a year' of the alleged sexual abuse and grooming, Canal's purported abuser 'verbally admitted' that getting her 'in this position had been his plan all along.' 5 Victoria Canal at the Los Angeles County Fair on May 3, 2025. Getty Images for The Recording Academy Although Canal admitted that her world 'ruptured,' and it has been a 'long and evolving journey in reclaiming my emotional and spiritual health,' she shared that therapy, psychedelic treatment, talking with other men and women, and making art have helped her recover. Canal, who has been professionally linked to Coldplay's Chris Martin in recent years, also clarified that her alleged abuser was 'not among the mentors who have championed me since I got signed to a major label in 2022.' 5 Victoria Canal performs at the Neighborhood Theatre in Charlotte, North Carolina, on May 19, 2025. Getty Images 'These men have actually been a healing force in my life in being able to understand that not all people in positions of power abuse it,' the 'California Sober' singer wrote. 'These mentors have, among others, shown me that healthy mentorship does exist, there are men that wholly want to help, and I am so eternally grateful for that lesson.' 'Please don't entangle those people with this person,' Canal added. The Post has reached out to Canal's rep for comment.
