Lorde will head to London in June for a one-off date at the O2 Academy Brixton.
The 17-year-old New Zealander - real name Ella Yelich-O'Connor - will arrive in the capital on June 6, although she has also been forced to cancel a planned Australian tour, which was due to start in Melbourne on April 24.
Yelich-O'Connor will return to Auckland on doctor's advice, for immediate rest and recuperation. In a series of tweets, she confirmed that the shows had been set aside due to "a nasty chest infection" and "general ill health".
