Bad news for Zayn Malik fans in Dubai: You guys won't be hearing "PILLOWTALK" live, after all.

The 23-year-old singer canceled his upcoming October 7 performance at the Autism Rocks Arena in Dubai due to anxiety.

Malik released a statement to his fans explaining his decision. He wrote,

Dear Fans I have been working over the last three months to overcome my extreme anxiety around major live solo performances I feel I am making progress but I have today acknowledged that I do not feel sufficiently confident to move forward with the planned show in Dubai in October. I am assured that all tickets will be refunded. I am truly sorry to disappoint you. I hope to see you all soon. Thank you to all my fans who support me globally. With love and respect always, Zayn

Zayn assured all ticket holders their money would be refunded.

This isn't the first time the former One Directioner has canceled a show over his anxiety.

Back in June, he pulled out of a performance in Wembley Stadium in London only hours before he was supposed to take the stage.

He announced that cancelation on his Twitter.

Gigi Hadid, whom Zayn has officially been dating since March, wrote him a letter in response to his struggle with anxiety.
