Following a suspected drug overdose late last month, Demi Lovato has cancelled all her remaining fall tour dates to focus on her recovery.

The pop star was scheduled to appear in Mexico in September and in South America in November, but today Lovato announced she would no longer be playing those shows. As previously reported, Lovato recently cancelled her benefit concert in Toronto scheduled for July 29 following her hospitalization.

On July 24, the singer was found unconscious in her house. When paramedics arrived at the scene, they reportedly administered Narcan, an antidote used for opioid overdoses.

Lovato later shared a statement on her Instagram, admitting she is still struggling with addiction. "What I've learned is that this illness is not something that disappears or fades with time," she wrote.

At the time, Lovato added she needed "time to heal and focus on my sobriety and road to recovery."
