Bad news for Mahomies -- Austin Mahone has postponed his upcoming tour.

The 17-year-old heartthrob has fallen ill, resulting in his MTV Artist to Watch tour being moved to next year, per a tweet on the singer's Twitter page from his mother.

The details of Mahone's illness are unclear at this time, though the singer posted the below Instagram photo earlier in the day from what appears to be a hospital, the caption of which read that he had "never felt so bad."

According to MTV, new dates for the sold-out tour will be announced as soon as possible.
