Jamelia forgets lyrics during concert

Jamelia forgot the words to her songs a staggering nine times during her first live perfomance in two years, The Sun reports.

The singer took time out from her career to have her second child, but her return to the music scene did not go smoothly. She managed to get through the first song at her gig at The Hospital in London, but things went downhill from there.

During her next track 'Beware of the Dog', the star had to stop in the middle as the lyrics failed to come to her.

Mortified but keeping her good humour, she told the crowd: “It’s my first show in two years so bear with me.”

However, nerves were obviously still getting to the vocalist as she attempted to sing Coldplay's single 'Clocks'. After trying to get it right six times without success, Jamelia went on to another song but the words continued to escape her and she decided to take a ten minute break to compose herself.

After eventually completing the show, she exclaimed: "I just kept forgetting the words. I wanted to cry. My boyfriend Darren was giving me grief, telling me to hurry up as he was missing the Arsenal game.”
