Ne-Yo Breaks Down

Wednesday, July 22nd, 2009

Ne-Yo was feeling more than just a little under the weather last Thursday at his UK concert in Manchester. The R&B singer was in the middle of the song when he suddenly decided to walk off of the stage, only to come back in tears! He complained of feeling sick and saying that he doesn’t feel well enough to continue. Ne-Yo did promise to return at a later date though before exiting stage right to the sound of a very emotionally mixed audience. I wonder what was wrong with him. Some sources are saying that he didn’t look sick at all. Mind you, this isn’t the first time Ne-Yo has walked out of a performance.

Usher to work with Michael Buble

It’s not your average pairing… but Usher wants to work with Michael Buble.

The R’n’B star is desperate to team up with the Canadian jazz artist on his new album ‘Here I Stand’ and has even written a song for them to perform together.

He said: ‘I would love to perform my track ‘Forever Young’ with Michael Buble. I actually wrote that song with the intention of him and me doing it together.’

The ‘Love in This Club’ singer is also keen to collaborate with US singer-songwriter John Mayer.

Usher added: ‘I would like to do something with John Mayer on one of my songs ‘Something Special’ which is on my new album. I would love him to play the guitar and sing with me on that.’

The 29-year-old star, who has recorded a track with Ne-Yo for his new LP, insists he is happy his 18-year-old chart rival Chris Brown has enjoyed such success.

Usher explained: ‘All of this new energy is great for the industry. Chris is the guy who dances and sings, which is a lot like I do and did as a young artist. If time serves us correctly, and artists continue to better themselves, then hopefully he will follow the same path that I did.’

‘Here I stand’, which is Usher’s fifth studio album, is scheduled to be released worldwide on May 27.
