US STAR Frank Ocean has cancelled his appearance at this year's Bestival.

The singer announced the news in a short statement on Facebook, revealing that as well as Bestival, he was cancelling several other dates on his European tour, including the V Festival and his opening sets on the Coldplay tour.

Earlier this month the singer cut short a gig in Norway blaming problems with his voice.

Frank Ocean was due to appear at the Bestival last year as part of hip hop collective Odd Future, however the band was unable to attend due to a court appearance in the US.

Paul you remember! Bid Trinidadian lad with a big smile back in the 70's, he sang 'love really hurts without you' and 'when the going gets tough'.
