Ariana's emotional reasons behind why she may not be touring 'Sweetener'

Publish Date: Monday, 1 October 2018, 10:20AM

Last week, Ariana tweeted a thread of worrying tweets about the state of her mental health, and after dropping out of a Saturday Night Live performance, she's taken to Twitter again to address a Sweetener tour.

The Twitter thread has since been deleted, but fans are still tweeting Ariana with concerns over a potential tour for her latest album Sweetener.

After a fan replied to one of Ari's tweets telling her to take her time to get better, Ari responded by revealing that she's been back and forth about the idea of going on tour.

Ariana went on to say that one of the reasons that she's been holding off from going on tour is that being away from home for a long time is "scary" to her at the moment.

id never regret it. my happiest moments are with y’all and on stage and stuff. i think it’s just the looooooong chunks of time away from home that are scary to me rn. hi i’m being too honest and people r gonna tear me apart but idc anymore. lol.

She also shared that if she did do a tour for Sweetener, it would have to be smaller than her last one.

like maybe i’ll do a mini one. i cant do what i did last time right now. that i do know. whatever it is i hope it’s okay with you. i just love and miss you. everybody telling me i need to take time but i’m so antsy. idk. ily.

Ariana has been open with fans about her mental health since the death of ex Mac Miller, and the Manchester bombings.
