A back injury forced Justin Timberlake to pull the plug on an upcoming concert.

The 41-year-old singer, who is currently on the North American leg of his Forget Tomorrow World Tour, shared on his Instagram account that his Oklahoma City concert scheduled for Monday is officially cancelled.

“I'm so sorry Oklahoma City... I have to cancel the show on 12/2. I hurt my back in NOLA and my doctors have instructed me to rest a little bit longer,” JT wrote on his IG. “Thank you for your support—y'all know I hate doing this.”

The “Cry Me a River” singer performed in New Orleans last Monday at the city’s Smoothie King Center.

In October, the NSYNC alum was forced to postpone his New Jersey concert just hours before it was scheduled to start on Oct. 8 due to an unspecified injury. A source reportedly told TMZ at the time he was seen by a doctor for an injured ankle.

The Forget Tomorrow Tour, which is in support of Timberlake’s Everything I Thought It Was album released earlier this year, is set to pick back up in Houston on Wednesday.

The tour will play arenas in North America through Dec. 20 when he plays the T-Mobile Center in Kansas City. After a brief holiday break, Timberlake will wrap up the U.S. leg of the tour before performing in South America and Europe through July.
