The Grammy’s were in full swing over the evening, and, er, much buzz was made about Rihanna’s sudden backing out of her much talked about performance. According to Entertainment Weekly, RiRi pulled out of her performance due to falling ill earlier this week — and — not getting well enough quickly.
Based on Rihanna’s examination after Grammy rehearsal today, Rihanna’s doctor put her on vocal rest for 48 hours because she was at risk of hemorrhaging her vocal cords,” her reps said in a statement to EW. “The antibiotics she has been on for three days did not kill the infection adequately, therefore she cannot perform safely.”
