Rockstar Rod Stewart has cancelled his Cincinnati concert amid fears for his health, admitting he underwent an unforeseen medical procedure earlier this week. The 81-year-old singer was due to play to a packed arena at the Riverbend Music Centre last night, but had to pull out of the show due to ‘unforeseen circumstances’.
