Fans have rallied around Shawn Mendes after he had to cancel his concert in São Paulo, Brazil. 

WATCH: Harry Styles mispronounces Shawn Mendes on SNL

Taking to social media, sweetie-pie Shawn announced that he had to cancel his Saturday performance on November 30th and ordered to rest by his doctor, after being diagnosed with laryngitis and a sinus infection. 

"It breaks my heart to do this, but my doctors told me I cannot perform tonight or it would risk long-term damage to my voice," Shawn's statement began.

"I love you all so much and apologize from the bottom of my heart as I wish I could be there on stage tonight. I promise I wlil make it up to you next time I’m in South America. Te Amo."

Shawn clearly felt terrible about having to cancel his show - despite what seems to be a fairly serious illness - as he wrote a follow-up tweet that simply said: "Im so sorry".

Thankfully, it seems that fans were far more understanding than they were angry, as Tweets of support from well-wishers came flooding in after Shawn made his announcement. 

"I want you to know that it’s okay, it happens and we still love you the same!' wrote one fan, while another said, "You are human, too. You get sick. You deserve a day off, rest your vocal cords."
