Ne-Yo burst into tears during his concert in Manchester, England on Thursday. The “Closer” singer told the audience he was not feeling well earlier in the night and struggled to fight back his emotions. He ended the show early to a mixed reaction of cheering and booing, but promised to return.

“I’ve never not completed a show. I’ve never done this before,” he told the crowd while crying. “I want to thank y’all for bearing with me as long as y’all did. I appreciate that. Trust me when I say, I will be back. I love ya’ll.”
