George Michael cancels Aussie tour

George Michael has announced the cancellation of his 2012 Australian tour, citing severe anxiety in the wake of a hospitalisation last year from pneumonia.

In an announcement on his website at the weekend, the singer revealed he ignored advice from his doctors to undergo post-traumatic counselling following his physical recovery.

“I believed (wrongly) that making music and getting out there to perform for the audiences that bring me such joy would be therapy enough in itself,” the statement read.

“All that’s left for me to do is apologise to my wonderful Australian fan base and to promise faithfully that as soon as I complete these shows here in the UK I will receive the treatment which is so long overdue.”
