According to TMZ, her friends drove her to Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles, where she was diagnosed with blood clots in her legs and lungs.

“Of course I am heartbroken about all of the things I had planned for this week of releasing my EP, but I know my health must come first,” her letter continued. “Until I see you again, I want you to enjoy a project that represents the happy place I’ve been in the last few years.”

Kelly’s new EP Tori releases on Friday.

The singer-songwriter wrote she is “so grateful for the doctors and nurses who have been looking after me,” adding, “I love you all so much and I am truly overwhelmed by all of the love and care I have received, thank you from the bottom of my heart!”

The 30-year-old singer first gained recognition when she was a teenager after posting videos on YouTube. Kelly was also featured during American Idol Season 9 making it through Hollywood Week coming short of making the top 24.
