She claimed that she will no longer be doing shows that require her to get on an airplane. Ari wrote:

“For my mental health and my sanity I will not be doing any shows that require me to fly. I can not keep torturing myself with this huge fear of mine. It is literally destroying my health. Enough is enough. I’m so sorry to all that are inconvenienced by this. Don’t know what this will mean for my career, but I just can’t do it.

She continued,

“On the plane to Minneapolis now. I’ll be there. If there’s any peers or anyone out there who knows of a great hypnotherapist, therapist and/or fear of flying solutions, I would be so grateful. I want to beat this.”

Despite her comments against flying, the 31-year-old singer is scheduled to perform in Los Angeles on Friday (June 24), along with London’s Wireless Festival and the Cincinnati Music Festival in July.

“@AriLennox I’m blaming the label for not releasing the album at this point. I know it’s done. They’re tripping.”
