“To my dear Savage Soldiers, I’ve been fighting off a virus for the past few weeks and was today firmly instructed to be on strict vocal rest for the next few months.
“I will unfortunately have to postpone all performances, including my first-ever headline Arena show in London.
I’m heartbroken and devastated, but I have to do this to save what’s left of my voice.
I’m so sorry. I love you all and promise to be back performing once I’m fully healed”, she said.
The multiple award-winning celebrated singer’s postponement is a major blow to her fans, who have eagerly awaited her first-ever headline at the 12,500-capacity arena show scheduled to take place on October 22 at Wembley Arena, London.
