The Weeknd's Saturday night concert at Los Angeles' Sofi Stadium ended abruptly after the Canadian singer-songwriter said he had lost his voice and didn't feel he could provide the show that people paid for.
According to Variety, addressing the crowd of roaring fans, he said, "I don't know what just happened...but I just lost my voice, 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."
The Weeknd added, "I'm gonna make sure everybody's good, you'll get your money back, I'll do a show real soon for you guys. But I wanted to come out and personally apologize." Before exiting the stage, he said, "You know how much this kills me, I'm sorry. I love you thank you so much."
He also posted an apology to his Twitter account shortly after.
Not long after, the house lights came on, and audience members wandered arouund, wondering if they should begin to make their way to the exit or hoping for a return to the stage, reported Variety.
