In statement released on Tuesday afternoon, April 27, Smith said: ''I have been vocally exhausted for a while now, however, last night in Sydney I had a small hemorrhage on my vocal chords.''

The multi-award winning British singer got the news just hour to his second night performance in Sydney. He said he was 'deeply, deeply saddened by the news.

''The doctors have told me I need to fully rest until my vocal cords have healed, otherwise this could become a huge long-term issue. I am so sorry to all who have bought tickets, I truly am. This kills me,'' he said.
