“I have decided to step away from performance for the foreseeable future and pursue some other creative and personal endeavors that I feel would better suit this next phase of my life,” Furtado wrote in an emotional post on Thursday, October 23.
The announcement comes as Whoa, Nelly!, the album that featured top-hits like “I’m Like a Bird” and “Turn Off the Light,” turns 25. Furtado shared a photo of herself at 20, reminiscing about shopping for a “pink dress and some sparkly platform shoes to perform in.”
In her post, Furtado reflected on how her music has found new life with younger listeners. “My music has reached a whole new generation of fans and I couldn’t be happier about that,” she wrote. “In the year 2000, I remember feeling purpose in hoping some kid would dust off the ‘Whoa, Nelly!’ vinyl one day in a record shop and think it was cool or inspiring, so I never could have guessed that there would be so many new ways to discover ‘old’ music in 2025!”
She added, “To have so many people rediscovering my music has been surreal and joyful. It’s been so fun embracing this opportunity, getting out on stages again, and seeing up close the true lasting power of good music. It’s made me really believe in magic.”
The “Promiscuous” singer recently released her album 7 after taking time off to focus on motherhood. That return was inspired by the renewed popularity of her music, and by her own family.
For longtime fans, Furtado’s announcement feels bittersweet. One commenter wrote, “I feel like we just got you back recently after years away, and you’re leaving again!!! So happy for you but also saddd.”
Although she hasn’t shared exactly what projects she’s pursuing next, fans are eager to see where her creativity will take her.
