Doja Cat will not complete her stint on the iHeartRadio Jingle Ball Tour following a positive Covid test. She broke the news herself, sharing a message on social media explaining that dates in Philadelphia, Washington DC, and Miami would be affected.

"As most of you probably heard earlier, a few members on my production team tested positive for Covid 19 and I had to cancel a couple of my upcoming performances as a safety precaution. Unfortunately, I’m sad to share that I just tested positive as well and will no longer be able to perform on the rest of the iHeartRadio Jingle Ball Tour,” Doja Cat's statement began.

She continued, “While my spirits are down since I can’t be there to celebrate the holiday with my fans in Philly, DC, Atlanta and Miami, I’m doing ok and look forward to recovering and getting back out there as soon as I can! The rest of the tour stops have some really great lineups, wish I could be there.”
