Kilimanjaro may be too high after all for Take That's Gary Barlow, after he put his back out just days before a climb up the mountain for charity.
The 38-year-old singer is due to scale the 19,000ft African peak next month with a team of celebrities to raise money for Comic Relief.
But fellow climbers Cheryl Cole, Ronan Keating and Denise Van Outen maybe have to start without him because doctors have advised him to rest until he departs this Friday.
A Comic Relief spokesman said: "Due to a hectic training schedule for his (climb) and to promote the new Take That single 'Up All Night', the muscles in Gary' Barlow's back have gone into spasm.
"Gary saw an eminent specialist together with Professor Greg Whyte who is the trainer for the 'BT Red Nose Climb' and has been treated appropriately for this minor injury."
He added that there was no cause for concern.
"Gary saw the specialist as a precaution because he is determined that he will be fit and well to continue his mission to raise mountains of cash," he said.
Other climbers taking part include Radio 1 DJ Chris Moyles and presenter Fearne Cotton.
