Britain's Got Talent tour organisers are hoping Susan Boyle will perform in Glasgow later after she pulled out of two concerts in Manchester on Sunday.A spokesman said Boyle, 48 - runner-up in ITV1's talent show - had been advised to rest "following three sensational performances".
She performed in Birmingham on Friday night before appearing in matinee and evening shows in Sheffield on Saturday.
She was treated for exhaustion at The Priory in London after the TV show.
Concert-goers at the Manchester Evening News Arena arrived to find notices announcing Boyle would not perform at either of the scheduled matinee or evening shows.
"She sends her sincere apologies to her fans for not appearing in Manchester," her spokesman said.
He added Boyle had not been ruled out of the rest of the 21-date tour, and it was hoped she would return to the stage in her home country on Monday.
The singer performed renditions of I Dreamed A Dream from Les Miserables and Memory from Cats on the opening night of the tour.
But the next day in Sheffield she appeared to stumble over the words to Memory and received a mixed reaction from the audience.
The crowd in Manchester booed after Britain's Got More Talent presenter Stephen Mulhern told the audience Boyle would not be performing before a video clip of her "journey" was played on stage.
Ticket holders had the option of a refund if they decided they did not want to watch the show - but a spokesman for the MEN arena said only seven people asked for their money back over the course of two shows.
The arena tour, which will travel across the UK until the end of June, showcases winning act Diversity plus some of the other finalists and semi-finalists, including Boyle.
