Victoria Monét fans are going to have to wait for her return to the stage amid "health issues."
The "On My Mama" singer, 35, announced on her Instagram story Monday that she will "no longer be able to perform at Governors Ball (NYC), Roots Picnic (Philadelphia) or Blavity (Nashville) this June."
"I am gutted … I am so sorry!!" she told fans.
Monét added: "Candidly I have been dealing with some ongoing health issues that have to be addressed right now, but I will be back out there soon, that's a promise! Please know it wasn't an easy call but it's definitely for the best."
The three-time Grammy winner will be back for the rest of her summer music festival appearances such as Broccoli City Festival in Washington, D.C., Lollapalooza in Chicago and Outside Lands Festival in San Francisco.

Although she hasn't disclosed her current health concerns, Monét opened up about suffering from polycystic ovary syndrome on her Instagram stories in April amid her sets at Coachella.
"Welp.. I gained a lot of weight and it went a lot of places lol face, arms, tummy and most effectively… (my butt)," she wrote over a photo of her onstage. "I usually am so critical and frustrated by it because PCOS has me really messed up, but optimistically at least now there’s two moons on the stage."
PCOS is a hormonal condition that affects 8% to 13% of women of reproductive age and can cause hormonal imbalances and cysts in the ovaries, according to the World Health Organization. Weight gain, particularly around the abdomen, is one of many possible symptoms.
Monét has been busy performing after the success of her album "Jaguar II," which earned her seven Grammy nominations and three wins at the 2024 ceremony.
Ahead of the event, she told USA TODAY, she was most excited about having "new and refreshed energy going into the studio and just knowing that I don't have anything to prove — it's just fun."
