Legendary rock queen Stevie Nicks freaked out fans — who thought she’d died — when she suddenly announced on Instagram the cancellation of two months’ worth of tour dates to allow a fractured shoulder to heal.
Due to a recent rash of high-profile celebrity deaths including Ozzy Osbourne, Hulk Hogan and the drowning of Malcolm-Jamal Warner, frantic fans mistook the rescheduling of the 77-year-old “Rhiannon” singer’s upcoming Live in Concert tour dates in August and September as a death announcement.
“Damn near had a heart attack,” posts a fan. “Someone wrap her in bubble wrap and put her in a salt circle!”
Another exclaims: “My heart just skipped a beat goodness gracious. Get well soon Stevie!”
Scribbles a third fan: “Girl every time you have posts like this with long writing I have a damn heart attack … PLEASE.”

The shock and outcry came after the Fleetwood Mac star posted a list of canceled concerts due to her shoulder injury that would take two months to heal.
Nicks’ Instagram account announced: “Due to a recent injury resulting in a fractured shoulder that will require recovery time, Stevie Nicks’ scheduled concerts in August and September will be rescheduled.”
The message noted that fans with rescheduled dates could instead redeem their tickets and added: “Stevie looks forward to seeing everyone soon and apologizes to the fans for this inconvenience.”

Meanwhile, fans were messaging words of well-wishes and sighs of relief that the post wasn’t a death announcement of the aging “Edge of Seventeen” songbird.
Adds one: “Sending love, healing, light & prayers. Most important thing is for you to be well and feel good. Even when in pain, you are there for your fans & reschedule. You are an angel & we need you always!! Love you!”
