Hayley Williams has been dealing with a lung infection lately, resulting in some postponed shows on Paramore's North American tour. Now, after clapping back at snarky fans and returning to the road, the band have cancelled the remaining shows on the tour.

The band were due to play in Portland tonight and Salt Lake City on Sunday (August 13), both of which had already been rescheduled due to Williams's illness. Now, these dates have been cancelled outright.

Williams wrote in a message on social media, "After struggling through the last few shows and consulting with my doctor, we're unfortunately realizing that it's past the point of wanting to push through to put on a good show for you all. I'm now risking long-term damage and I need to pay attention to my body."
 

Paramore are working to reschedule the shows, but are offering refunds in the meantime.

Paramore are due to play the New Yorker Festival in October, followed by an Australian tour in November.
