NeYo's So Sick in Manchester and cries on stage!

RnB superstar Ne-Yo broke down in tears during his concert yesterday at the Manchester MEN Arena. Concert goers said he had been visibly unwell from the start of the show but continued on despite this.

It did eventually all became too much for him. Thirty minutes into the performance he was struggling with his voice and realised he had to stop. As he broke the news that his performance would have to be cut short, to the waiting crowd, the floods of tears began to fall.

In an official statement made to; www.globalgrind.com Ne-Yo said

Basically, I have an issue with not knowing when to say enough is enough, so last night in Manchester, my body said it for me.
I got on stage energized and ready to go, even tho for the last 5 days I've been dealing with a sinus infection. I paid it no real mind, and kept on going, like I always do. My voice couldn't take it. From the first song I knew something was wrong. I shoulda stopped there, but I come from a school where no matter what, the show must go on. It wasn't until about 4 songs in that I came to the painful realization that my voice was done, literally nothing left, and that I would have to stop the show.

And he had a special message for those who had criticised his manhood because he cried;

To anyone out there that would like to question my manhood because of this I'll say this to you:
If the one thing you cared about more than anything else in the world was threatened or even taken from you, if you knew that the people you cared for the most you had to disappoint and it was your fault... and this didn't spark some kind of emotional outbreak within you...then with no shame I'll say you are truly a stronger man than I.

It is understood that once he has recuperated he will do the Manchester show again and complete his reaming three dates. Having seen him in concert before, I would say that he is definitely worth the wait.

Get well soon Ne-Yo!
