Singer-songwriter Charli XCX says that she has been forced to terminate two concerts in Japan on doctors orders.
The "Boys" hitmaker announced it on Instagram and Twitter late on Friday evening, reports people.com.
Charli was scheduled as one of the headlining performers as part of the Summer Sonic concert series in Tokyo and Osaka on Saturday and Sunday, respectively.
"I have been seriously ill for the past couple of days with really bad tonsillitis and fever. I haven't been able to leave my hotel room at all," she wrote in a note.
"I passed out when going through security in Beijing and I've since had injections/been on antibiotics but nothing is making me better," Charli continued.
"I can't even explain to you how excited I was to be in Japan."
