Rihanna cancels 3 UK tour dates

Umbrella singer Rihanna has been ordered by her doctor to cancel three of her UK tour dates, it has been revealed.

The singer, 19, was scheduled to perform in Nottingham on Saturday, but was forced to pull out & postpone the gig.

Last week, Rihanna, who's currently dating actor Josh Hartnett, canceled a gig she was due to play on Tuesday in Bournemouth.

Rihanna, who enjoyed a massive 10 weeks at the top of the UK singles chart with her smash hit 'Umbrella' was due to perform at Birmingham's NEC arena last night (Monday, December 10th), but her doctor advised her to not go through with the show.

A spokesperson from the NEC said that Rihanna "appreciates the love and support of all her fans and wants nothing more than to see and connect with them".

The reason for the doctor's order has not been confirmed.

Rihanna started her European tour in Paris last month and was due to finish on December 21 in Russia.
