Barry Manilow, 80, is seen wearing a hearing aid as he puffs on a vape while leaving farewell show at the London Palladium

Barry Manilow was seen leaving his farewell concert at The London Palladium on Tuesday night, puffing on a vape.

The singer, 80, looked in good spirits as he climbed into his waiting car, vape in hand, while he was also spotted wearing a discreet hearing aid.

Barry took time to chat to waiting fans before heading back to his hotel after his latest London residency gig. 

The singer is in the middle of a nine-date The Last London Concerts residency at the venue that runs from May 25 to June 9 – as he bids farewell to the UK.

The May 27 date however was cancelled, with his team sharing a statement just hours before the show was meant to kick off saying he wouldn’t be performing ‘under doctor’s orders’.  

The statement read: ‘Unfortunately, under doctor’s orders, we must cancel tonight’s 27th May Barry Manilow concert. 

‘Please hold on to your tickets until we can sort out rescheduling tonight’s performance. 

‘We are very sorry we have to make this announcement and trust that tomorrow night’s concert will go on as scheduled.’

Hundreds of disappointed fans were seen standing outside the West End theatre after being given the news by the venue’s ushers. 

The show has since been rescheduled to Sunday June 9 at 2:30pm, hours before the star will take to the London stage for the final gig of the tour.  

Barry first took to the stage at the world famous London venue in October 1978. 

Speaking about his decision to perform a final run there he said: ‘In 1978, The London Palladium is where I began my love affair with the British public.

‘These shows will be my last full concerts in Britain and I wanted to end where I began – at the London Palladium.’ 

The music legend – who has sold more than 85 million albums worldwide – kicked off the final UK run with a one-off show at the new Manchester Co-op Live arena on May 19.

The Grammy winner – who holds the title for the longest stint in Las Vegas with his Barry Manilow – The Hits Come Home! concert series – is playing a hit-packed show, including songs Could it Be Magic, Copa Cabana and Can’t Smile Without You.

Despite these being his final shows in the UK, Barry revealed he still loves to perform his most famous tracks and could never grow tired of them as the audience makes him feel like he’s ‘never heard’ the songs before.

He told USA Today in 2019: ‘I’ve stopped performing album cuts and medleys of big bands and stuff. I know what the audience wants. They want the hits. And I am happy to give that to them.

Speaking about his decision to perform a final run there he said: ‘In 1978, The London Palladium is where I began my love affair with the British public’ 

‘I’m one of those lucky guys who has a catalogue of hits that can fill up 90 minutes. I don’t know how that happened, but I’m very grateful. And I want to give them every song they know. So it’s a very happy audience out there.

‘I could see the difference. When I would do something they didn’t know, they would be very polite. And then when I would do Looks Like We Made It, the roof would cave in. They were telling me what they wanted. 

‘And it’s my pleasure, honestly. It’s theirs. They gave these hits to me. So I’m happy to do it. I don’t mind it. I really don’t. 

‘You would think that I’d be sick of them by now but I really am not because they make it brand new for me. It’s as if they’ve never heard these songs before.’

Barry’s London residency comes after he beat Elvis Presley’s record for the longest running show in Vegas – marking his 637th show at Westgate last month.
