Bad news for Derulo fans who were hoping to hear their hero incorporate his flowing name into as many of his songs as possible. The 22 year old Miami based pop star has injured his neck whilst training for the upcoming world tour.
The issue happened while executing an acrobatic move and Derulo landed directly on his head and has suffered an acute fracture to his vertebra. He was rushed to Memorial West Hospital in Miami. He could have been paralyzed for life but it seems he has had a lucky escape having to wear a neck brace for the next few months.
This means all Irish dates are now cancelled, The O2, Dublin on March 5th and The Odyssey Arena on March 6th. Tickets can be refunded from the point of original purchase from Monday January 9th.
Derulo released this statement
“To all my fans who planned to come to the Future History World tour, the pain of letting you down cuts me way deeper than this injury I’ve sustained. My fans mean everything to me, so I’m praying for a speedy recovery in order to perform for you in the near future.”
