Rihanna is going to need a bit more time to chill before she can continue her overseas tour. After canceling a show in Malmo, Sweden, on Monday due to a bout with flu-like symptoms, the singer was forced to pull out from another show Wednesday night, when again, she felt under the weather.
A spokesperson for tour promoter Live Nation told the Associated Press that RiRi felt ill before her concert in Stockholm on Wednesday night, and after consulting with a doctor, decided to cancel the show an hour before she was scheduled to take the stage.
Live Nation's Kristofer Akesson said Rihanna "is exhausted and doesn't feel well," but did not elaborate on what ails her. Promoters have said they plan to reschedule the gigs, but have not said when they will take place. She was able to perform at the first of two scheduled shows in Stockholm on Tuesday night.
On Monday, Rihanna tweeted a photo of herself in a Swedish hospital bed with an IV in her arm along with an apologetic note that read, "Sorry Malmo!!! #LOUDtour." She later released a statement, explaining, "I am sorry to everyone who was coming out to my show in Malmo. I was so excited to perform for you all. It would have been a great time ... so much better than being sick with the flu, ugh! I'm really disappointed I couldn't be there."
Rihanna is on the European leg of her worldwide Loud Tour, which began in the States in the summer. The tour — which has included openers J.Cole, B.o.B, Cee Lo Green and Calvin Harris — is expected to continue until the end of the year.
The singer recently set another career mark when "We Found Love" became her 11th #1 hit, breaking the three-way record she shared with Stevie Wonder and Janet Jackson for 10 career #1 singles. According to Billboard, she also set a record by racking up 20 Hot 100 top-10 singles faster than any other solo artist in the chart's history, reaching that pinnacle in six years and four months, which is five months faster than Madonna.
