POP sensation Olly Murs left fans fuming tonight after shockingly pulling the plug on his second sold-out Glasgow show after just FIVE songs.

The 40-year-old star appeared on stage at the Hydro ready to wow the crowd, but after battling through a handful of tracks, he announced, "My voice has gone," before calling off the rest of the performance.

He'd just finished Kiss Me Like You Mean It when he stunned the packed Hydro crowd by saying: "This has never happened to me before but you can hear my voice is going.

"I want to give you the concert you deserve so I can't go on.

"I'm going to come back, but I need to go now."

There was then a stunned silence and lights went up before the crowd realised it wasn't a joke.

Fans, who had shelled out upwards of £57.55 for tickets, were left bewildered as the venue abruptly switched on the lights and directed everyone out the door.

One disappointed attendee told the Scottish Sun said: "We were just getting into it after catching Blue as the support act.

"He sang five songs, then suddenly stopped.

"He said he'd figure something out, but before we knew it, we were being told to leave.

"There was still at least an hour left – now we don’t know what to do with ourselves!"

This was the second time he has cancelled a performance at the Hydro after he dramatically pulled out of supporting Take That minutes before the doors opened last year.

And Murs had previously revealed he was forced to cancel two UK gigs just last month.

The pop star apologised to fans with tickets to his Hull and Brighton arena shows in a statement after a stomach bug had "ripped through" his band.

And in February, he was forced to cancel his Dubai show at the last minute after being struck down with a throat infection.

He was due to perform at Bla Bla Dubai but took to Instagram just hours before the gig to apologise to fans, revealing doctors had ordered him to rest.
