Paloma Faith has been forced to cancel her Southampton gig just hours ahead of the performance this evening after falling ill.
The singer, 42, who is due to play Glastonbury on Sunday, has had to pull out of Friday's performance due to exhaustion and losing her voice.
In a social media statement, Paloma said: 'I'm incredibly upset and disappointed to announce that I need to cancel my show tonight in Southampton.
Paloma, who shares two children with her ex Leyman Lahcine, continued: 'After suffering from exhaustion and catching various illnesses from my kids my voice has been severely affected and my range is compromised.
'I have sought advice from medical professionals, they have advised that I need to rest my voice and that means I've had to cancel tonight's show.'

In April, Paloma postponed her Cardiff show for medical reasons, as she announced she has had to reschedule her performance for a second consecutive night.
She was left 'devastated' when she was diagnosed with Laryngitis, which is caused by a virus and means she can't sing.
Taking to Instagram, a day before the scheduled show, she singer cancelled her gig at Cardiff's Utilita Arena - and told fans it would be rescheduled for a later date.
Paloma also admitted she is unsure if her show at The Brighton Centre on Saturday night will go ahead, while vowing to do all she can to be fighting fit for the planned performance.
She wrote: 'I am devastated to announce I have been advised by medical professionals not to perform my Cardiff show tomorrow but to reschedule. I am doing vocal rest, steaming, gargling, and I even had a steroid injection.
'At the moment it's one day at a time so will let you know tomorrow about Brighton but I don't want to do anything more than I want to do these show and know that when you do come they will be the best show I can do for you. So far this tour has been incredible and I am dying to get on with it!
'This is the worst thing to have to do. And I can't apologise enough... weirdly the kids are behaving better now I can't speak, which is confusing me.
'Please hand on to your tickets and as soon as my team have a date to reschedule to we will let you know. All my love, Paloma x'
Paloma also shared a sweet picture of a bunch of colourful flowers that her friend, Fred Cox, gifted her in her time of sickness.
Sharing her appreciation for the gesture, she wrote: '@Iamfredcox I don't deserve you what a kind and beautiful thing thank you (sic)'
Although her loyal fans were surely disappointed by the news, they flocked to social media to show the singer support.
One penned: 'Oh Paloma I know this is the last thing you want to have to do but looking after yourself has to come first, sending you all my love.' (sic)
'Please look after yourself paloma!! we are all rooting for a quick and easy recovery';
