""been dealing with some health challenges, and my doctors tell me that I must have a few procedures. As I joked with them, it must be time for my 100,000-mile check-up, although it's not the usual trip to see my plastic surgeon!""
""In all seriousness, given this, I am not going to be able to rehearse and put together the show that I want you to see, and the show that you deserve to see,""
""You pay good money to see me perform, and I want to be at my best for you.""
""While I'll still be able to work on all of my projects from here in Nashville, I just need a little time to get show ready, as they say. And don't worry about me quittin' the business because God hasn't said anything about stopping yet. But, I believe He is telling me to slow down right now so I can be ready for more big adventures with all of you.""

She joked about needing a "100,000-mile check-up" while explaining the need for treatment. She said she cannot rehearse or assemble the show she wants and that fans deserve, and emphasized wanting to be at her best for paying audiences. She will continue working on projects from Nashville but needs time to prepare. She stated she is not quitting and feels called to slow down now for future adventures. The residency is rescheduled for September 2026 at the Colosseum at Caesars Palace.
