June 9 (UPI) -- Halsey is feeling "heartbroken" after cancelling a show on their Love and Power tour. The 27-year-old singer was unable to perform Wednesday at Merriweather Post Pavilion in Columbia, Md., due to heavy rains and flooding.

"Maryland I don't even know what to say. If you missed my life, I'll post something soon explaining what happened. But right now I'm heartbroken and panicked and I just want to know when/that you all get home safely. I love you guys more than anything," Halsey tweeted.
Fan videos showed concertgoers waiting in a venue flooded with water, which caused rodents to emerge. The show was initially delayed and finally canceled at 10 p.m. EDT, three hours after its planned start time.
Halsey said on Twitter that they canceled the show with their fans' safety in mind.
"I promise I wanted to more than anything. But I couldn't because it would have been SO unsafe if I went out there and people rushed the stage during or after the storm. A lot of things were out of my control tonight but I promise everything I COULD choose, I chose your safety," they wrote.
The singer then called out the venue.
"I really want to add that I am beyond disappointed with the way the venue handled everything tonight and my rescheduled date will be happening somewhere else. I hear you guys loud and clear I promise," they said.
Halsey will next perform Saturday in New York.
The Love and Power tour is in support of Halsey's album If I Can't Have Love, I Want Power, released in August 2021. The singer will release a new single, "So Good," on Friday.
In addition, Halsey will headline the iHeartRadio Music Festival in September.
