Grammy award winning singer and songwriter Adele has been ordered by doctors to stop singing and speaking for at least a month so she can heal from acute laryngitis – or risk damaging her voice permanently.
The singer was forced to cancel her North American tour earlier this month and it seems that things have not yet improved.
Adele is a smoker and that may be the problem and she apparently cannot kick the habit.
Adele is currently at the top of the Billboard Hot 100 chart for a sixth week with Rolling in the Deep.
She wrote on her website: “I’m really frustrated. I was hoping with a week’s rest I’d be better to sing again straight away. However there is absolutely nothing I can do but take the doctors advice and rest some more. I’m so sorry.”
Adele has one of the most amazing voices I have ever heard, so, I, along with millions of other fans, all hope that she gets the rest she needs.
