Singer pulls out on doctors orders

Rihanna has postponed three UK gigs that were part of her European tour.

The singer had been forced by her doctor to pull out of today's (December 10) gig at Birmingham’s NEC Arena.

The singer also pulled out of Saturday's (December 8) show in Nottingham and tomorrow's (December 11) Bournemouth show, reports BBC News.

In a statement, issued via the Birmingham NEC, said the singer "appreciates the love and support of all her fans and wants nothing more than to see and connect with them”.

Fans are advised to hold onto their unused tickets until further notice.

A spokeswoman for the singer was unavailable for comment.

The singer began the tour in Paris last month and was due to end it on December 21 in Moscow.
