Lionel Richie Cancels Shows Due to Health

Lionel Richie had to cut short his first night in St. Paul after feeling dizzy during “Dancing on the Ceiling,” joking with fans before heading backstage for medical checks. Doctors have advised rest, forcing postponement of his Chicago and Columbus shows scheduled for June 26-27. His team is working on rescheduling, with Pittsburgh (June 30) still on track. This leg features Earth, Wind & Fire on 26 dates, part of a major U.S. and Canadian tour already rescheduled once due to weather — this is the first health-related pause. Richie is heartbroken but eager to return, with performances still planned in Toronto, Boston, and LA before wrapping in August.
