Shirley Bassey Drops Out Of Nelson Mandela Concert

June 23, 2008
Shirley Bassey Drops Out Of Nelson Mandela ConcertDame Shirley Bassey has been forced to pull out of the Nelson Mandela concert in London's Hyde Park this Friday (June 27th).

A spokesperson for the singer said that she was “hugely disappointed” because she had been “looking forward to the show immensely”.

Last month, Dame Shirley had to undergo an operation on her stomach in Monaco, where she lives.

As a result of the operation, the singer, famous for her work on James Bond, has been advised by doctors not to travel.

The concert on Friday, which will help raise awareness for the 46664 aids campaign, is scheduled to feature Amy Winehouse, Annie Lenox, Leona Lewis and Razorlight.
