In a detailed statement posted on Twitter, he wrote "Unfortunately my anxiety that has haunted me throughout the last few months around live performances has gotten the better of me."

“I know those who suffer anxiety will understand and I hope those who don't can empathize with my situation,” he added.

The fans who were initially disappointed  later took twitter to wish the star well and voiced out their support.

“Z - I’ve seen the battles you go through and the way you fight to get to a place that allows you to get up there for your fans.”

“Your bravery in those times makes me proud, but your honesty last night proved what you’re all about, being real. Human recognizes human. You made the best of the situation and have given your fans an opportunity to understand you better as a performer. Those who can find compassion now are the ones that deserve to watch you continue to grow,” wrote Hadid.
