Posting an announcement to Twitter on Friday (March 25), the pop diva wrote she would not perform at the Forest National arena on Sunday, as had been planned, "for the safety of my fans, my band, crew and everyone involved with the tour."
I love my fans in Brussels and at this time I am being advised to cancel my show for the safety of my fans, my band, crew and everyone...

Since Tuesday's attacks, police have been working to take down alleged ISIS cells related to the attacks, arresting at least nine potential suspects.
