Ariana Grande Cancels New Year's Eve Performance Last Minute Due to Illness
By Kwadar Ray

Arianators will have to wait a bit longer to see their favorite star return to the stage. While Ariana Grande recently made a live appearance on late night television, she has not had a concert since she split from Pete Davidson in October.
That was all supposed to end at The Chelsea in The Cosmopolitan hotel in Las Vegas on New Year's Eve, where Grande was scheduled to perform. But according to People, the "Sweetener" singer had to cancel due to illness.

"Vegas, I'm currently working through some health issues and am beyond sorry I won't be able to see you this weekend," Grande wrote on her Instagram Story this afternoon. "I love you and so look forward to seeing you and making it up to you next year."
A source close to the situation told People the singer is suffering from bronchitis.
"Love you the most," Grande continued in a separate IG Story post. "You're so funny sometimes man. Thank you for your patience. I will make it worth the wait."
While some fans are understandably upset they won't get a chance to finally see Ari live, most understand her decision and are wishing her a speedy recovery.

Despite not performing since the breakup, Ariana has released some new tracks and music videos since then, so she definitely has left fans with some much needed content while we await her return to the big stage.
