Robbie Williams cancels tour dates

Robbie Williams has cancelled all of his November tour dates in Asia due to exhaustion.

The singer was due to play a string of dates in Shanghai, Hong Kong, Bangkok, Singapore, Mumbai and Bangalore between November 4 – 26.

A spokesman for Williams said that getting the singer to perform in China, India and South East Asia after playing his European and South American dates “would be asking too much”.

The spokesperson added that Williams had been touring since May and was “extremely tired” and that the extra performances “would have greatly added to his workload”.

He performs the third of five dates at the Milton Keynes Bowl tonight (September 16), the last concerts in the UK leg of the tour.
He will then play five dates in South America in October before ending his tour in Australia in December.
