X-Factor winner Leon cancels performance
X-Factor winner Leon Jackson was forced to cancel his performance last night at Edinburgh’s Hogmanay celebrations.
The singer has been stuck down with tonsillitis and was too ill to attend.
19-year-old Leon was scheduled to kick off the City’s annual Street Party, but has been advised to rest for the next two weeks.
He felt disappointed at letting people down but comented that he would not have been able to deliver on-stage.
Edinburgh City Council George representative George Grubb stated: “It was a disappointment as his presence would have been great to open the celebrations. But we still had some great entertainment on the stages”.
50,000 people were expected to attend the event even though wet weather was predicted.
Jackson’s single
When You Believe
maintains its number 1 spot in the UK charts for the second week running.
