Country music\u2019s emo cowgirl Megan Moroney<\/a> canceled her Denver show just a few songs into her set on Tuesday. <\/p>\n

The 28-year-old singer was barely able to get through her hits \u201cStupid,\u201d \u201cMedicine\u201d and \u201cBless Your Heart\u201d before she broke down in front of the Ball Arena audience and said she would need to nix the gig for health reasons. <\/p>\n

A video<\/a> on TikTok captured the moment Moroney broke the news to concertgoers. \u201cI am obviously extremely sick, and I thought I did everything to make myself better, and obviously, two songs in, I just can\u2019t play this show tonight,\u201d Moroney said. \u201cI will make it up to you guys. I absolutely promise I\u2019ll be back. You\u2019ll be able to come. But I want to give you guys the show you deserve. I\u2019m probably gonna go cry in my dressing room now.\u201d <\/p>\n

Fans in the audience could be heard yelling, \u201cNo, you got this!\u201d <\/p>\n

In a since-expired Instagram story, Moroney apologized again and told Denver fans that the show had been rescheduled for Aug. 27, and that if they weren\u2019t able to make the new date, their tickets would be refunded. <\/p>\n

\u201cI never ever will give you guys a show that is not 100% and by song 3 I knew that I was not capable of giving that to you tonight,\u201d she wrote. \u201cI\u2019m typing this as I\u2019m quite literally bawling my eyes out in my dressing room & it hurts me so much to disappoint you all.\u201d<\/p>\n

The country hitmaker said she had never had to cancel a show before. <\/p>\n

In February, she released her third album in less than three years, \u201cCloud 9,\u201d which features chart-topper \u201c6 Months Later,\u201d and duets with Kacey Musgraves and Ed Sheeran. The same month, as she geared up for her \u201cCloud 9 Tour\u201d \u2014 which kicked off May 29 in Columbus, Ohio, and concludes Oct. 1 in Belfast \u2014 she told The Times<\/a> that she copies Kenny Chesney when training for the run of back-to-back performances and life on the road. <\/p>\n

\u201cLots of cardio,\u201d she said. \u201cTreadmill while singing. Lagree three to four times a week.\u201d<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re unfamiliar with Lagree, Moroney said it\u2019s \u201clike Pilates but harder.\u201d <\/p>\n

\u201cThere\u2019s a place in L.A. that killed me \u2014 I couldn\u2019t walk properly after. If you do Lagree and an ice bath in the morning, then the worst part of your day is already over. That\u2019s how I look at it: Anything that comes my way today will not suck as much as this sucks right now,\u201d she said. \u201cThere\u2019s also a diet of some sort \u2014 low sugar, no carbs, just meat and vegetables. I\u2019m kind of copying Kenny and his routine because he gets in crazy shape. He does a freaking 31-day juice cleanse. I tried to do a juice cleanse in college, and by Day 2 I wanted to die. I\u2019m not that committed.\u201d <\/p>\n

Moroney is slated to hit the stage again on Saturday at the Moda Center in Portland, Ore., before she travels to Seattle, Sacramento and Los Angeles over the next two weeks. She is scheduled to play Crypto.com Arena in downtown L.A. on Aug. 8.<\/p>\n
