Sinead O’Connor
Singer Sinead O’Connor canceled the tour and said: I feel bad, guilty of the disorder.
The Irish singer has decided to cancel her tour of 2012. Guilt said, is suffering from bipolar disorder. “With great regret I have to cancel all touring throughout the year, since I’m very bad because of bipolar disorder. As you know I had a serious breakdown between December and March, I had been advised by my doctor not to travel on the tour, but I did not want to “fail” or let anyone down since the tour was planned to coincide with the release of my album. So I very foolishly ignored his warning, trying to be stronger than I actually am. I apologise sincerely for any difficulties this may cause.” she wrote on her site.
