Adele Postpones Shows And Misses Mercury Performance Due To Illness


LONDON (CelebrityAccess MediaWire) — After contracting what seems to be a pretty nasty cold and chest infection, Adele has cancelled her first four UK tour dates as well as her performance on September 6th at the Mercury Awards.

The British singer has been posting apologies on her website, as well as promising fans that she will reschedule as soon as possible.

Adele posted the following apology on her site:

im so so sorry! i need to wait until the infection has cleared up, theres no use battling through it because itll only make me weaker. im still breathless and my chest is disgusting. believe me im doing everything i can to get better asap i promise. its a bug and i have to wait til its gone. im not doing half hearted performances for anyone. if i try do a show like this itll be rubbish and i wont be coming back this year and i dont want leave you like that. if i postpone ill come back very soon when im well and do it how i normally do it! please forgive me, i hate cancelling things as you know. this has nothing to do with my throat before. im sure lots of you feel like this as well, its going round. see you very soon adele xx

Earlier this year, Adele was forced to reschedule the tail end of her North American dates due to laryngitis.
