Lauryn Hill has canceled her upcoming gig in London, claiming that she is not allowed into the UK for legal reasons.

Hill was due to perform at London’s O2 Shepherd’s Bush Empire on July 15. However, the gig will no longer go ahead with the singer stating online that her “past legal situation” prohibits her from entering England.

In a message posted on Facebook, Hill wrote: “I’ve been informed that I won’t be able to enter the UK for a period of time due to my past legal situation.

“For this reason I have to cancel my concert on July 15th. Know that I was looking forward to performing in London this summer, and that I appreciate all of my fans and supporters both in London, and throughout the UK. I look forward to seeing you again as soon as I’m able to.”

Hill also recently cancelled a concert in Israel due to her inability to book a corresponding gig in Palestine.
