Kelly Clarkson Cancels Tour

The first American Idol winner says that she is disappointed with the news.  "In the craziness of the music business, performing is what I look forward to doing the most, so it really is disappointing for me to have to tell you that I won’t be coming out to tour this summer,” she wrote in a posting on her website KellyClarkson.com. “The fact is that touring is just too much too soon.”

The manager of LiveNation, who was to produce the tour, said, “Ticket sales have not been what we anticipated."

For Clarkson, it has been a difficult week, as she also fired her manager, Jeff Kwatinetz.
