The New Jersey teen who is fighting cancer and was set to attend Sunday’s Academy of Country Music Awards as Taylor Swift’s date has been hospitalized and will not be able to attend the event.

Kevin McGuire, who is battling leukemia for the second time, was reportedly admitted to the hospital late Friday.

On Saturday, Swift tweeted, “Just talked to Kevin McGuire. He’s not well enough to join me at the ACMs. Please keep him in your thoughts. I’ll make it up to you, Kevin!”

McGuire’s sister Victoria originally created an online campaign to have Swift take him to prom.

The country superstar couldn’t make that date, which led to the ACM Awards invite.

    I LOVE Taylor Swift….and I am a grandmother! She is such a great role model and a really lovely person. That she would give her time for Kevin….and any other person who may not be around to enjoy some of these things on their own, later in life, really rocks in my book. Good on you, Taylor.
    And KEVIN, feel better soon! My prayers are with you!
