//Blog Bits: Ne-Yo Explains Tearful Manchester Concert Breakdown//

Concerned fans wanted to know exactly what happened to Grammy award winning singer/songwriter Ne-Yo when an online video of the singer in tears during his Manchester concert stop surfaced. He ultimately had to end the show early.

So what did happen? In a Global Grind blog post entitled “This Is My Life,” the “Miss Independent” singer explained the demands of shooting his World War II movie abroad and his non-stop touring schedule took its toll on his body.

“Basically, I have an issue with not knowing when to say enough is enough, so last night in Manchester, my body said it for me” he said in the July 17th dated entry.

“I got on stage energized and ready to go, even tho for the last 5 days I’ve been dealing with a sinus infection. I paid it no real mind, and kept on going, like I always do. My voice couldn’t take it.”

The Gentleman took time to express to his fans just what they mean to him and how much leaving the stage hurt him. “When I had to walk out on that stage and tell 12,000 of the people responsible for making me who I am that I could not perform for them, it literally broke my heart.”

Ne-Yo promises that the people of Manchester will receive the show that they deserve. No word yet on when that date will be rescheduled. He wrapped up his last date in London with support act Keri Hilson last night (July 19th).
