Jessie J Forced to Exit Katy Perry Tour

Jessie J’s not going to be able to be a part of the final leg of Katy Perry’s California Dreams Tour which she was supposed to join in mid-November. The singer fell during rehearsals for the Summertime Ball, rupturing a ligament in her foot (according to her official website) back in June. The injury’s taking longer than expected to heal and although she was able to make it through MTV’s Video Music Awards by sitting down to perform, she won’t be able to physically handle the demands of a tour until her foot his completely healed.

In the statement announcing her departure from Katy Perry’s California Dreams Tour, it was confirmed Jessie J’s taking the time off on doctor’s orders. “The pop sensation must stay off the road internationally and undergo intensive constant physical therapy to recover fully from a serious recent injury that could worsen if she returns to the road,” says Universal Republic Records.

Jessie J’s expected to return to the U.S. to perform in 2012. Her latest single, “Domino,” debuted on iTunes on August 29th.
