Lewis Capaldi in tears as he admits 'hating himself' in first interview since cancelling shows

Lewis Capaldi struggled to hold back tears as he was asked some heartfelt questions in his first interview since cancelling all his shows. The Scottish popstar announced the news to fans following his emotional performance on the Pyramid Stage during this year's Glastonbury Festival last month.

The singer-songwriter revealed he would be taking a break from touring "for the foreseeable future" in wake of his BBC Glastonbury set, which saw him battling voice issues during a Tourette's Syndrome flare-up. Over a week later, he has joined talk show host Sean Evans on the latest episode of Hot Ones on popular YouTube channel First We Feast.

The show sees Evans chat with various celebrities as they each tuck into hot chicken wings, that gradually increase in heat - often leaving guests in tears and sweating. In the latest instalment, uploaded yesterday (July 6), Capaldi begins by expressing how nervous he is.
