“This Is Killing Me”: The Weeknd Cuts Short Los Angeles Concert After Losing Voice

“This Is Killing Me”: The Weeknd Cuts Short Los Angeles Concert After Losing Voice

The Weeknd was forced to cut short his Saturday (September 3rd) concert in Los Angeles after losing his voice during the opening song.

Shortly after beginning his set, as Billboard reports, the pop superstar went backstage during “I Can’t Feel My Face,” before emerging and calling a halt. Footage from TMZ shows The Weeknd addressing the audience. “I don’t know what just happened when I screamed, but I just lost my voice,” he said.

“This is killing me. I don’t want to stop the show. But I can’t give you the concert I want to give you right now,” he continued. “I’m going to make sure everyone’s good, gets your money back, and I’ll do a show real soon for you guys, but I wanted to come out and personally apologize and not tweet it or Instagram it. I wanted you guys to know that I can’t give you what I want to give you right now. I apologize. I’m so sorry.”
