Trainor postpones 2 shows due to hemorrhage on vocal chords

NEW YORK (AP) -- Meghan Trainor is postponing two shows because of a hemorrhage on her vocal cords including one in New Jersey.

The 21-year-old pop singer made the announcement on Instagram late Thursday. She said "doctors want me on complete vocal rest until they are healed."

The "All About That Bass" singer had been scheduled to perform at Borgata in Atlantic City on Friday and Uncasville, Connecticut, on Saturday.

Tickets to the original show will be honored on the rescheduled date which has yet to be announced according to the Borgata website. Refunds can be obtained from the original point-of-purchase.

Trainor wrote that she's never missed a live show and that she's "truly sorry to everyone who has bought tickets and made travel plans."

Her next show will be on Tuesday in Lansing, Michigan. The Grammy-nominated performer's hits include "Lips Are Movin'" and "Dear Future Husband."
