Steven Tyler Addresses Heart Attack Rumors After Tour Cancellation: 'Creative Speculations'

Steven Tyler is doing good after canceling his tour.

Last week, Aerosmith called off the four remaining dates of the South American leg of their "AeroVederci" tour due to Tyler having "unexpected medical issues." The band announced that their shows in Curitiba, Brazil, Santiago, Chile, Rosario, Argentina and Monterrey, Mexico had been canceled. However, the cancellation sparked rumors that the Aerosmith frontman suffered either a seizure or a heart attack, E! News reported.

On Saturday, Tyler released a statement addressing the speculation about his health, clarifying that he did not have a heart attack. "I give you all an A+ for creative speculations but I certainly did not have a heart attack or a seizure (unless Joe Perry is takin' a rippin' lead)," Tyler, 69, wrote on Twitter.

Tyler also apologized to the fans who were looking forward to seeing the band perform live. "Sorry to have cut the tour short but I had to have a procedure that only my doc in the States could perform. It breaks my heart to have left this tour early. The band has never played better. Just watch the 100,000 people at Rock in Rio," he continued.

To ease his fans' minds, Tyler stressed that his condition is not life-threatening and added that he just needs to deal with it right away. He also said that he simply needs rest and medical care to be able to continue performing in the future. The singer promised that he will be back.

Tyler's post received warm support and understanding from his fans, who assured him that they will be waiting for his return. "Take care Steven, you don't need to apologize, your health is more important," one fan commented. "I LOVE U SO MUCH , DON'T WORRY , WE UNDERSTAND YOU," another fan added.

In another tweet, Tyler announced that he needed immediate care and would not be able to travel or perform at the time, hence the cancellation of their remaining four shows in South America.

"To everybody in South America...Brazil, Chile, Argentina and Mexico...I'm very sorry and feel like I've let you down..I won't be able to continue the last four shows of this tour. I flew back to the US on doctor's orders last night after the show in Sao Paulo," he wrote.
