The Real Reason Olly Murs Walked Off Stage After 20 Minutes
It's been one month since Olly Murs' huge arena tour kicked off in Plymouth. However, crisis struck at last night's event in Glasgow when Murs walked off stage after just 20 minutes, and six songs into his set. This happened after struggles with the singer's voice. He had performed Kiss Me Like You Mean It when he made the confession to the 14,000 capacity Ovo Hydro venue: 'My voice has gone,' he said. 'I'm going to come back, but I need to go now.' The arena was reportedly left in silence and the lights went up. Afterwards, Murs took to Instagram to share a heartfelt apology, telling fans 'from the bottom of my heart' he was 'so sorry.' In the emotional video, Murs says: 'I've never done this in 15 years,' continuing 'most of the time, as singers, you can get through it if your voice is not 100%. I walked out tonight thinking my voice is great, maybe felt a little bit run down. But I didn't think I couldn't do the show or I wouldn't have come out otherwise.' He added that he is planning on seeing a doctor that evening ahead of shows in Manchester, Birmingham and London over the weekend. 'It's unfair for you guys who spent all that money to come and see me, you deserve the best show,' he said. 'Hopefully, I can recover from this.' This isn't the first time Murs has had to cancel a gig. Last month, he took to social media to tell fans that gigs in Hull and Brighton were not going ahead, thanks to a stomach bug which had also 'ripped through' his band. He wrote on Instagram: 'I hate that I have to write this & really so sorry to let you guys down, but unfortunately, we are having to reschedule our next two shows in Brighton & Hull. The gastroenteritis bug I had last night is currently ripping through our band and crew, which makes it impossible to put on a show for you,' adding 'We'll be taking a break for 48 hours to ensure everyone can be fit and healthy for the remainder of the tour. Thank you for understanding and we're working hard to bring you news of our rescheduled dates as soon as we can. Love Olly x.' Earlier this year, Olly shared the sweet news that he is expecting a second child with his wife Amelia. They welcomed their first child last year. Murs shared an insight into how he was finding life as a new dad with Mark Wright on their Heart Breakfast show, confessing: 'It was really hard for me as I had to leave two days after the baby was born to go on tour with Take That.' He continued: 'I didn't really process it at the time and a few months later me and Amelia were chatting and I just broke down in tears as I never got a chance to actually get to know this little baby.'

The thought of upsetting people and letting you the fans down has hit me hard today. "Speaking in front of you last night and seeing people upset was hard to see but from the bottom of my heart I'm sorry but I had to put my health first x "To everyone in Manchester and Birmingham I'm deeply sorry but I am unfortunately going to have to cancel my shows there this weekend. I have contracted a respiratory infection and have been instructed to go on a strict 48 hour voice rest by the doctor to ensure no further damage to my vocal chords.

Olly Murs walks off stage at Glasgow concert in 20 minutes; fans left fuming
Singer Olly Murs shocked fans at his Glasgow concert when he ended up stopping his gig after only a 20-minute show. The singer who had performed 6 songs, abruptly stopped his concert and walked off the stage, sending fans into a state of shock. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now The pop star, well known for his hits like 'Dance With Me Tonight', 'Up', and 'You Don't Know Love', made headlines after he ended up stopping his concert just a few minutes into the show. The singer was performing his song 'Kiss Me Like You Mean It' when he made a sudden stop. He quickly clarified to the audience that 'My voice has gone,' as per The Mirror. This was the 40-year-old pop star's second sold-out show in the city. Olly explained further that even though he wanted to continue the concert, he couldn't. He shared, 'This has never happened to me before, but you can hear my voice is going. I want to give you the concert you deserve, so I can't go on.' He concluded his statement with, "I'm going to come back, but I need to go now," and then proceeded to walk off. The fans of the singer at first had thought they may be playing a joke but later turned furious after the singer, in fact, walked off stage and did not return. Murs later took to his social media accounts to share an apology regarding his actions. "Glasgow, I am so sorry tonight. So sorry that I had to walk off after six songs and cancel the show. I have never done this in 15 years. Most of the time, as singers, you can kind of get through it if your voice isn't 100 percent, but I walked out tonight thinking my voice was great. I may have felt a little bit rundown, but I didn't think I couldn't do the show because I wouldn't have come out there otherwise. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now So, to walk off after six songs, I am so sorry. 15s, and I have never done this." He concluded his statement with, "As you can hear from my voice, I was sounding rubbish, and it is unfair for you guys to spend all that money to come and see me. You deserve the best show and me being at my best. I am so sorry from the bottom of my heart." The singer also recently shared that he had to reschedule his shows in Brighton and Hull last month as well. In a post that he shared online on his social media platforms, Murs detailed and shared how "I hate that I have to write this & am really so sorry to let you guys down, but unfortunately, we are having to reschedule our next two shows in Brighton & Hull.' He cited a 'gastroenteritis bug' as the reason for why he and his crew were not fit to conduct the show. He shared in his statement that "The gastroenteritis bug I had last night is currently ripping through our band and crew, which makes it impossible to put on a show for you. We'll be taking a break for 48 hours to ensure everyone can be fit and healthy for the remainder of the tour. Thank you for understanding, and we're working hard to bring you news of our rescheduled dates as soon as we can. Love, Olly x."
