On Monday, Rihanna's fans and Late Late Show host James Corden were left disappointedwhen the beauty pulled out of her performance at the Grammys at the very last minute.

"Based on Rihanna's examination, after Grammy rehearsal today, Rihanna's doctor put her on vocal rest for 48 hours because she was at risk of hemorrhaging her vocal chords," a statement from the singer read. "The antibiotics she has been on for three days did not kill the infection adequately, therefore she cannot perform safely."
