Superstar pop singer Jessie J has been forced to pull out of her gig at the Ponty's Big Weekend tonight - just 25 minutes before gates were set to open.
Jessie was scheduled to take to the Welsh stage later tonight but has reportedly contracted the CMV virus - which is said to have ‘caused her considerable fatigue’. News that she had the virus is said to have been confirmed by a blood test this morning.
Posting about the cancellation on Twitter, Jessie J sympathised: “I want to personally apologise to all my fans who would be going to my show tonight (Pontys Big.W). I have been diagnosed with a viral infection recently that has caused me to be extremely fatigued. I was hoping to be better but I have been to see my doctor this morning after not feeling great who has advised me I am still in need of rest & to perform will make me worse.”
She continued: “I hope you can all understand that I wish I could be there.But I'm just not well enough.Back to bed I go :( So sorry x”
A spokesperson has added: “We are sorry for the inconvenience this decision causes, and to Jessie’s fans who were looking forward to the event, but I’m sure they will understand that this is the only decision that could be taken under the circumstances. It’s also a great disappointment to us, as we were really looking forward to the concert.”
Tickets for the show will be refunded from Monday July 23rd onwards - the rest of the event (on Saturday and Sunday) will go ahead as planned.
