''Enjoying my last day of speaking,'' he said, ''After today, no speaking for three weeks. So if you see me on the streets sorry if you think I'm a dick head and can;t say hello. Also gonna be silent for my birthday. Sounds funny aye?''

Smith is joining superstars like Adele and Celine Dion to undergo such vocal chord surgeries.
