a little something more than manhood is at question
NeYo said after the crying that it was sparked by the “one thing” that is “more than anything else” more important to him and was being “threatened or even taken from him”
HOTT NEWS!
Really curious about this one.
NEYO cried, and as the crying didn’t stop, he exited the stage, postponing the concert. Why did he postpone rather than just take a break?
NeYo said after the crying that it was sparked by the “one thing” that is “more than anything else” more important to him and was being “threatened or even taken from” him. But beyond that he doesn’t clarify why he was crying, why he couldn’t just take a break and resume the concert a half hour later, and when the concert will be rescheduled.
Addressing the situation via Global Grind, Ne-Yo admits to have been working too much before stating “my body said it for me”.
Courtesy of GlobalGrind:
“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. I’ve never had to stop a show … I cried harder than I have in a very long time with no shame whatsoever.
To anyone out there that would like to question my manhood because of this I’ll say this to you: If the one thing you cared about more than anything else in the world was threatened or even taken from you … and this didn’t spark some kind of emotional outbreak within you … then with no shame I’ll say you are truly a stronger man than I.
And to the bloggers….go to h–ll.”
“I’m currently on tour in the UK. This tour began right after a 4 month stint in Prague shooting a world war 2 movie. We’re in a different city in a different part of the UK every night, moving non stop. Since my first album, roughly 5 years ago, I’ve taken 1 vacation, and even that was about 2 years ago,” says the Grammy winner.
“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. From the first song I knew something was wrong. I shoulda stopped there, but I come from a school where no matter what, the show must go on. It wasn’t until about 4 songs in that I came to the painful realization that my voice was done, literally nothing left, and that I would have to stop the show.”
Ne-Yo goes to say: “When I say this music, that stage, my fans, THIS is my life, I’m not saying it cause it sounds good in a sound bite. THIS IS MY LIFE!! Not much else matters to me, honestly.
My music, my family and the people that appreciate my music…..the fans. THAT’S ABOUT IT!!
I’ve never had to stop a show, never dreamed I’d ever have to. So 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.
I cried harder than I have in a very long time with no shame whatsoever.”
