MUSIC legend Michael Bolton has heartbreakingly cancelled his highly anticipated London O2 show as he continues his brave battle with brain cancer. The 71-year-old was set to take to the stage on July 5 but has now been forced to pull out as he focuses on his recovery from surgery. Announcing the cancellation on social media, Michael told fans: “Today we are announcing the cancellation of my July 5th concert at the O2 Arena in London.

“You all know how much I was looking forward to this show but I am continuing to heal from surgery. “Thank you for all your love and positive energy over this past year. I am so grateful to have the most supportive fans in the world. “Your tickets will be automatically refunded.”. The How Am I Supposed to Live Without You singer revealed in January last year that he had been diagnosed with a brain tumour and had undergone emergency surgery.
