Cheryl Cole cancels shows

Under the advice of her doctor, Cheryl Cole has pulled out of upcoming  television and radio appearances.

The singer was due to perform her new single 'Parachutes' on the 'Friday night with Jonathon Ross Show' and sing on Radio 1's live lounge tomorrow.

However, the Daily Mail reports that doctors have ordered her to cancel the shows after she contracted bronchitis.

A spokesperson for the star said: "Cheryl Cole has been forced to postpone all promotional activity this week upon medical advice after contracting bronchitis." 

Cole's illness comes just weeks after she announced her split from soccer ace husband Ashley Cole last month.
