PALOMA Faith has cancelled her gig this evening – just hours before she was due on stage.
The 42-year-old was due to play in Southampton this evening but revealed she had been suffering with exhaustion and lost her voice.

In a statement this afternoon, Paloma shared: “I’m incredibly upset and disappointed to announce that I need to cancel my show tonight in Southampton.
“After suffering from exhaustion and catching various illnesses from my kids my voice has been severely affected and my range is compromised.
“I have sought advice from medical professionals, they have advised that I need to rest my voice and that means I’ve had to cancel tonight’s show.”
Paloma shares two children with her ex Leyman Lahcine, who she split from in 2022.

She added:“I’m so sorry to everyone who bought tickets, I’ve loved being on the road and seeing all your gorgeous faces and I’m gutted I won’t be dancing with you tonight.
“There will be other opportunities in the future, I’m sure.”
Her upset fans were quick to comment on her post and offer their support.
One person wrote: “Fingers crossed for Glastonbury and Cardiff next week! Get well soon.”
A second said: “Absolutely gutted but you need to look after you. Hope you feel better soon!!”
While a third added: “Get better soon. Don’t worry. You’re human why everyone loves you. X.”
Paloma is also set to play the Pyramid Stage at Glastonbury on Sunday.
The star, who earlier this year brought out sixth album The Glorification Of Sadness, had been really looking forward to her set.
She told The Sun this week: “I’ve not done Glastonbury in eight years and I feel so excited.
“I am almost going to combust.
“It is one of the absolute best memories of my career, playing at Glastonbury.
“I’m over-the-moon excited for it.”
The singer was also forced to cancel a gig in London in April – after again falling ill.
