Robbie Williams cancels two European dates of 'The Heavy Entertainment Show Tour'
He was due to perform in Russia
Last updated 24th Aug 2018
Robbie Williams has cancelled the final two dates of the European leg of his 'The Heavy Entertainment Show Tour', according to a statement on his website.
The 'Candy' singer was due to finish the European leg of his tour, as well as perform at a separate event in Russia, but he has been struck down with an 'illness'.
A statement on the singer's official website said, "Due to illness, the final two dates of the European leg of 'The Heavy Entertainment Show Tour', St Petersburg and Moscow, have been cancelled.
"Robbie Williams will also not be appearing at the New Wave event in Sochi.
"Robbie Williams has played to over 1.1 million fans this summer and recently announced an Australasian leg of the tour which is happening in February and March 2018."
The 42-year-old singer has been on tour since June and recently performed in Zurich, posting a photo on Instagram with the caption, 'Thank you Zurich: sensational this evening x'
Last year Robbie released his 11th studio album 'The Heavy Entertainment Show' from which he released four songs including 'Love My Life' and 'Mixed Signals'.
The video for 'Mixed Signals' was a talking point earlier this year as two versions of the music video were released. The first version of the video features Robbie, convinced his on-screen lover is cheating on him. However, the second version sees Robbie's on-screen girlfriend and real-life wife get a bit too close for comfort!
Just two months ago Robbie announced he would be releasing a brand new album called 'Under The Radar Volume 2'. This album is a follow-up to the singer's 2014 album 'Under the Radar Volume 1' which featured b-sides and demos which had never been heard before. This new album will feature music from across Robbie's 20 year solo career.
Although the album itself won't be released until November, over the summer the 'Feel' singer will be posting a series of videos and vlogs on his YouTube channel to coincide with the release of his new album.
Robbie is expected to continue his tour in New Zealand in February 2018.
Hope you get well soon Robbie!
