Having opened its gates on Wednesday, Glastonbury Festival gets properly underway this afternoon–but Azealia Banks won’t be joining the fun. She’d been scheduled to play the Other Stage tomorrow afternoon, but, as the festival confirms via Twitter, she’s had to pull out. No word yet on why. The Strypes will replace her.

Update 6/26 1:20 p.m.: Azealia Banks has issued the following statement:

Today I was put on vocal rest by my doctor which is forcing me to cancel Glastonbury. You have no idea how frustrated and sad this makes me because I love the UK and Glastonbury so much, you have all supported me from the early days and I was really looking forward to putting on an incredible show for you all, rain or shine! Please know, that as soon as I’m allowed to be on stage again, when I have a full bill of health, I will be back! I hope you understand and I look forward to seeing you all again soon.
