JESSIE J has cancelled her performance tonight in Toronto over the extreme weather.

The singer – who is currently touring the world – was due to play the 1500 capacity Danforth Music Hall in the city on Sunday night.

However the extreme weather conditions that recently saw neighbouring province Quebec hit almost minus 40c temperates – the coldest on earth.

The major snow storm is set to be dump 50cm of snow on Toronto today alone – and it has forced Jessie to rethink her show.

Writing on Instagram, she announced: “I am personally making the decision to cancel tonight’s show in TORONTO.

“I don’t feel comfortable having people risk their safety for the show.

“I understand some people will be upset and some I’m sure will be relieved, however I feel this is the right decision.

“You will get a full refund for your tickets.”

She added: “I am truly sorry.

“I am currently standing in the venue and getting here wasn’t safe and the snow is only getting worse.

“I just can’t imagine how people would get home in the dark with the weather like this.

“I hope you can respect my decision even if you may disagree. 

“But for me safety always has to come first. Lots of love, J.”

Fans were disappointed but understood and were grateful – though many begged for her to reschedule the gig.

One wrote: “We get it, I live downtown and even I was wondering how I was going to get to the show.”

A second said: “Queen we love and respect this decision, but can it please be rescheduled instead ?? Pls don’t just cancel.”

Another added: “Yes, girl, safety comes first. You did the right thing!”
