Lily Allen was forced to cancel her set at the Spanish festival Benicassim this weekend, after being struck ill.
Explaining her axed show, the singer wrote on Twitter: "Wish I was at Benicassim, got a bug and been vomiting all day."
"Thank you to the lady who gave me a bag to vomit in at Gatwick this morning. It was a paper bag. At EAT Gatwick north terminal. So not LOL."
Allen's management then posted an explanation on her MySpace page, which reads: "Lily Allen has had to pull out of her performance tonight at the Benicassim festival in Spain due to ill-health."
"Lily has been diagnosed today as having gastroenteritis by her doctor and has been told she is not fit to fly to Spain. She is very sorry to let fans down and hopes to be back to full strength as soon as possible."
