NEW YORK, April 3 (UPI) -- Representatives for Celine Dion said the Canadian pop singer's upcoming show in Beijing has been canceled but her Shanghai Stadium gig will go on as planned.
Dion's publicist said that contrary to media reports, the recording artist didn't cancel her Beijing concert because of a fear of sandstorms in the region.
"Due to some difficulties in securing the appropriate venue, organizers for Celine's Beijing concert announced that the show originally scheduled to take place on April 13 has now been canceled," her representatives said in a statement. "A decision was made to reschedule the show for another time."
Dion still plans to visit Beijing April 12 to appear on Yang Lan's TV show, however.
"I'm really sorry that things couldn't be worked for the concert in Beijing. I was really looking forward to it. I'm excited about visiting the city and appearing on Lan's show. At least I will get a chance to visit Beijing and continue to make plans for a future concert," Dion said in a statement.
The April 11 Shanghai Stadium concert is expected to go on as scheduled.
