Susan Boyle axes Australian gig

Melbourne (ANI): Susan Boyle's Aussie fans will have to wait a little bit more to see her croon in their country - because the Scottish star has cancelled her tour Down Under to rest' before recording her second album.

"Regrettably, we have had to make the tough decision to postpone our Australian visit for the Logies in May," the Herald Sun quoted her manager Andy Stephens, as saying. Stephens added: "We want to apologise to all Susan's Australian fans and look forward to coming to Australia later in the year."

Sony are said to be trying to get Boyle to Australia to launch her second album this November.
