It was announced weeks ago that Jelly Roll would be among the several big acts performing on the Season 24 finale of “The Voice.” But as fans of the show already know, JR was a no-show for Tuesday night’s finale.

Host Carson Daly revealed the news moments after the show started. He told the audience that Jelly Roll was scheduled to perform, but had to cancel. Daly then revealed that Jelly will appear on “The Voice” finale next spring. Jelly Roll also issued a statement on Facebook, confirming that he is sick.

“I was looking forward to performing tonight on the Voice, but I am extremely sick and unable to perform,” he wrote. “I’m sorry if I have disappointed anyone – if there was even a slight chance I could perform I would be on that stage tonight. ‘The Voice’ has been kind enough to have me back in May next year and I look forward to giving y’all the best performance of my life. Thank y’all for all of your love and support!”
