Johnny Depp suffers injury, cancels concerts after Cannes controversy

Johnny Depp announced the postponement of several tour dates after he suffered from a foot injury.

The 59-year-old took to Instagram Monday to apologize to fans for the cancelation of his upcoming concerts with his band, Hollywood Vampires.

"My dear friends, I am sorry to say that I have fractured my ankle, which is a drag!!! It began as a hairline break but somewhere between Cannes and the Royal Albert Hall it got worse rather than better," Depp began to explain.

The "Pirates of the Caribbean" actor continued to say his doctors advised him to take a break from touring due to his injury.

"Several medical professionals have strongly suggested I avoid any and all activity for the moment and so am sadly unable to travel at this time."

"The guys and I are very sorry to miss you in New Hampshire, Boston and New York," Depp noted with rescheduled tour dates listed at the bottom of his post.

He vowed to make it up to fans by promising them an "amazing show" during the Hollywood Vampire’s Europe tour and bring their "absolute best to the East Coast later this summer."

Paid tickets will be honored for the new dates on July 28, 29 and 30.

"Again, sincerest apologies. All my love and respect… J. D. x," the guitarist concluded.

After the concert cancelations, Hollywood Vampires are slated to kick off their tour starting on June 8 in Romania.... (Read more)
