Kristin Chenoweth axes U.K. tour

Kristin Chenoweth has been left "devastated" after her entire U.K. tour was cancelled just three days before she was due to perform in London.

A spokesperson for the Broadway star announced the last minute news late on Friday (08Mar13), blaming gig promoters for the unexpected axe.

The statement reads: "We regret to announce that we are unable to present our planned U.K. tour with Tony and Emmy Award-winning star Kristin Chenoweth and that the tour has therefore been canceled. We are deeply sorry to disappoint Kristin's many U.K. fans, who so readily brought tickets to see her. We wish to make it clear that the decision to cancel the tour is a result of Speckulation Entertainment's unforeseen circumstances, and that Kristin is saddened not to be able to perform here as planned. She was looking forward to performing to her sold-out audiences."

The blonde beauty subsequently reached out to fans on her Twitter.com blog to express her shock at the news, insisting she was all packed and ready to fly out for her first show in London on Monday (11Mar13).

Alongside a photo of her packed suitcase, Kristin Chenoweth wrote, "Was ready to go. And now completely devastated. I am Sorry to my uk (sic) fans. Not a good day. A horrible day.

"UK. Trust me, this isnt (sic) about snow... Trust me nobody is more heartbroken than I. Devastated."
