Beleaguered singer Chris Brown has cancelled four concerts in Canada due to 'health-related issues.'
The 24-year-old singer was set to headline the Energy Rush festival in Halifax, Toronto, Saint John and Winnipeg, but promoters have now been forced to axe the shows - and the entire festival.
In a statement released on Monday to Bang, Drop Entertainment Group, who were behind the festivals said: 'After ongoing conversation and consultation with this year's headline act, Chris Brown, and in light of the performer's recent personal and health-related issues, a decision has been made to cancel all four scheduled performances.'
Energy Rush festival was unable to continue without a headline act and has has postponed the event until next year.
The news comes after Chris had to be hospitalised last month following a non-epileptic seizure at Record Plant recording studios in Hollywood.
His representatives blamed the seizure on his intense fatigue and 'extreme emotional stress' in relation to his recent legal troubles following an alleged hit and run incident in May, which he was cleared of last week.
However Chris' probation for assaulting then-girlfriend Rihanna was only reinstated on the condition he complete a further 1,000 hours of community service.
He had previously been accused of submitting bogus community service reports for the 1,440 hours he was originally ordered to complete.
Chris has also recently threatened to quite the music industry.
He wrote on Twitter: 'Don't worry mainstream America. After this 'X' album, it'll probably be my last album.
'Being famous is amazing when it's for ur music and talent. I'm tired of being famous for a mistake I made when i was 18. I'm cool & over it!.'
The 'X' album will be released on August 26.
