Justin Timberlake cancels London show

Justin Timberlake took to his social media handle to announce that he has cancelled his London show. He said, "Hi everybody. This is an unfortunate video to have to send out, but I’m sure you can tell from the sound of things that I am not going to be able to make it to the show on Friday, which I’m gutted about." He stated that he had been in London all week and was "so excited" to perform at the legendary theater.

"But as you may or may not know, I’ve been battling some kind of bug," he continued. "And I thought it was getting better but it just took a turn for the worse," Justin added. He promised his London fans he'd make it up to them after powering through his appearance on Graham Norton's chat show, which was also almost canceled. But on Friday morning, he said he woke up feeling worse than ever, promising that the next time he comes through, he'll try to make amends and rock the Roundhouse with his fans.

But for now I feel terrible… I hope none of you get this flu," Justin Timberlake said.
