Juliana Hatfield Cancels Tour, Stressed To The Max

The ever-high-strung Juliana Hatfield recently called off her UK tour after

she was taken ill at her New York show at the Eisner Lubin Auditorium on

April 13th. She checked into a hospital in New York City and was later

transferred to a hospital in Boston, the singer's hometown. According to her

label, she didn't collapse at the show, as was reported elsewhere, but fell

ill afterwards because she was suffering from "nervous exhaustion." Other

reports say that a doctor was called to her New York City hotel room a day

prior to the NYC show. However an official spokesman for Hatfield said,

"Juliana was just really, really stressed out. And I want to point out that

she didn't physically collapse at the show. Right now she's working on

managing her anxiety and her stress levels by attending stress-management

classes. She'll reschedule her European dates after she finishes her American

tour." Another label representative informed us that "Due to the

overwhelming work schedule surrounding the release of her latest album,

Only Everything ,and Juliana's consequent exhaustion, she has been

advised by her physicians to postpone her upcoming European tour." The

singer's mother, Julie, who works as a fashion reporter for the Boston

Globe newspaper explained that "Nothing happened after the New York show.

Juliana was just physically exhausted and needed some rest. I have great

confidence that she'll be fine in a while. I've got three kids and I'm used

to being freaked out. It's no harder when your kid is a rock star, either."

We're told that Juliana is up and rested, and raring to start her American

tour with Jeff Buckley beginning on May 19th.
