AceShowbiz - MNEK has tested positive for COVID-19.
The singer-songwriter took to social media to inform fans he's experiencing "cold sweats and a headache" after coming down with the virus.
He penned, "tested positive for COVID like, yaaaas workkkk... i'm double vaxx, my only symptoms have been cold sweats and a headache but the rest is tbc. (sic)"
The positive test comes after he hit the stage on British TV show "Strictly Come Dancing" over the weekend (23-24Oct21) for a performance of his Craig David collaboration "Who You Are".
The musician, who has penned hits for Little Mix, Beyonce Knowles, Madonna, and more, recently launched his own record label. He said his latest business venture was "about honing in on bringing in young talent."
"I started out really young and I want to be what I should have had during that time, where I was really figuring myself out," said the "Head & Heart" hitmaker.
"I want to be a mouthpiece for young artists of colour and really talented people who deserve a chance that maybe major labels aren't giving them. As an artist myself, I want to be artist-friendly, not 'business honcho' all the time."
